Bump Moms are letting me down.

EreynoldEreynold member
in April 2015 Moms
I have read many threads on various; issues, concerns, and subjects, and there is a group of women who continue to put down other women. Pregnacy is an exciting, new, wonderful and scary experience and I don't believe moms should be criticized for asking questions. I've really enjoyed reading about all the experiences, ups and downs that us Moms are going through and felt comfort knowing that others are going through the same thing. I need a break from the Bump and dissapointed that the mean girls have turned me away.
Best of luck to all the mommas to be. Stay healthy, be happy and enjoy the blessing of being pregnant.

    Cool story, random stranger. Are you looking for someone to say "please, don't go!?" Because nope. You have to give support to get support. This random AW "I'm leaving" announcement is lame and passive-aggressive. Buh-bye.
    This reminded me of this song... Lol

    @abiatkinson: I noticed that you 'loved' the OP, but continue to post on other threads. If you genuinely share this sentiment, why would you want to stay?


    I am sad that she feels like she has to leave and I wanted to be supportive. I, however, don't feel the need to leave at all. I love the bump .. Love the app, the info, the weekly videos, and the convos! I like chatting about what's going on with my pregnancy and hearing what's going on with everyone else. I like the sense of community and I like to give and receive encouragement. So I don't have any desire or reason to leave.

    So you "loved" that she feels like she has to leave? Seems counterproductive to being supportive if that's your motive.




    Are you accusing me of having a different motive? Haha. Like what? Im here. Im pregnant. Im due in April. I'm thrilled about this sweet baby I'm carrying and love to think about her and talk about her as much as possible. Its nice to have the forum because I don't have very many "real life" people to talk about pregnancy things with. I'm uncomfortable talking with some people because of past excruciating losses and I like that I can talk here. Im nice and supportive here and I love the bump. I've never violated the rules or been disrespectful. I don't want to leave. So I don't really understand what the issue is.

    I do consider myself a member of the community. I am sorry that she feels like she can't stay. When people put me down I generally try to turn the other cheek, try to improve where I can, take the criticism and apply it where I can and throw away what doesn't apply. I feel like I can still support people who don't like me. I originally wasn't going to comment on this thread because of the drama but I did because my name was tagged.

    Other forums that I've been a part of have substituted "love it" with "hug". So maybe I think of that button as more of a hug. "I'm sorry you feel that way. [[hug]]. Bye. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy."

    I'm sorry that I've came off as the rude one/ mean one. I think it was just miscommunication because it wasn't my intention. Maybe it was just the difference in understanding of the button that I pressed and my interpretation will clear things up.

    No I am not at bbc. I've been here for this whole pregnancy. But I was on bbc for my very first pregnancy, with my toddler. But I have not been on bbc for my last 4 pregnancies.

    @abiatkinson‌ just take everyone's advice I'm sure you can be a valuable member of our board. You just need to chill on the hair petting and hand holding especially when the OP is in the wrong.

    This is my first post and will be my last. I completely agree with the original poster. A lot of people in this forum seem to have nothing better to do than leave snarky comments for some and insincere "t&p" for others. I came here looking for a source of information for my pregnancy but all I've found is a source of laughter as I read your mean girl posts to my husband. I teach high school and most of my students are more compassionate and less cliquey than the adult women in this forum.

    I believe I *already am* a valuable member of this board and part of the reason is because I can encourage people even when we don't feel the exact same way about an issue.

    I don't want to make myself more of a disagreeable person but I will *continue* being a valuable member of this board. I've been here for a long time and I don't feel less of a member or less valuable because I loved someone's post when they were feeling down and out about something that I don't feel particularly down and out about.

    "Our board" ---- I'm here, I'm pregnant, I follow the rules, I'm nice, I've been here the whole time. This is our board. Me included.
