I get it! My natural, harmless, troll like personality is against The Rules because of how ppl react. Banned 4 wut, really.... Being an AW on a pregnancy site? General drama spurred by my presence? The whole trolling clause is so ambiguous that it basically just means if ppl fuss about/around you too much you get voted off the island.
You intentionally posted a picture in your underwear after they specified that's why their BMB has a 'no naked belly' rule for HDBD. It's not because they're offended by belly, it's because they have people who bump publicly and don't need NSFW undie pics popping up. Idk, It wasn't even your first picture on their HDBD thread.
That's not your personality, that's poking people to see what happens. People don't tend to fuss unless you're poking them.
IMO, If doesn't matter if anyone thinks the rule is silly. It's being respectful enough to realize that they have that rule.
Ha the girl calling out the member who posted her naked bump said its because nobody wanted to see lacy bra bloat. Faiirrrrr game boiz. U seen some of the gifs around here? Let's not pretend a no bare bump rule is about being work-friendly. Pretty sure looking at ANY thread full of prego photos at work is "NSFW" so do as we all do and bump with discretion :P
She said they made the rule early, when the only thing that could be posted was bloat. Another member posted with the reasoning I listed above, and I think it's pretty sound logic.
I don't think you can say it's just your harmless personality that got you banned when you knew about their rule and posted anyway because it's 'fair game.' That basically means you think you're better than their rule...Which is probably why they don't want you there.
Luckily you have some pretty awesome ladies here who 1. Like you 2. Aren't bothered by your personality and 3. Don't care about bare bellies.
Personally, I'm excited to see HDBD this week full of beautiful bellies. Still not sure if I'm brave enough to post my own
I'm 24w2d and not even a hint of linea nigra. Does that mean I won't get it? Or can it show up at any time? I'm a FTM - won't lie, I assumed linea nigra was the line, but I def looked it up top be sure :-)
I am so super stoked for HDBD this week :-)

It can show up at anytime, so you could still be one of the lucky ones who gets it! I didn't get mine until about 31 weeks with my with first pregnancy and it just never really went away.

I got a linea nigra last time, but I don't remember when. Maybe third tri, and then it didn't go away until about 6 months PP. I don't have one at all yet this time.
I feel like this linea nigra discussion should be a clicky poll with bonus points for pictures! Anyone want to make it happen? I'm curious. I never got one last time and have no hint of one this time.
You think that it might happen? I never had one with my first pregnancy and I just assumed I wouldn't with this pregnancy, either.
There are much more important things to discuss right now. Like people posting pics of their mucus plug on D14.
And so it begins...
It looks more like discharge to me, and I hope she and her baby are ok, but who TF takes pictures of things that come out of their vagina and posts them on a public forum?
Sorry, ladies, the only thing I want to see a picture of that has come out of your vagina is a baby.
