June 2015 Moms

mean moms...

I have been apart of the bump for over 5years (3 pregnancies ) (I have used it for support from other moms to be going through the same things I am. Well this time around there is so much criticism and just plain bitchiness from all of you. What happened to the old "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." I don't get it. I feel if you want to be a bitch go to Facebook, cause some drama somewhere else. This site it to support moms and moms to be. We are all sensitive and hormonal. We don't need strangers telling us where to shit in what Bush. This is getting ridiculous. Comment if you agree. If you are one of these "mean girls" eFf off. We ate tired of reading your crap. Thanks!

  • Have you tried looking up a thread for hormonal bitchy moms? Then you could repost this there, where the other bitchy moms on this site are bound to end up, make some bitch money and not keep wasting everyone else's time on this site. Just saying. .. You can find anything on the Internet nowadays.

  • *rolls eyes* I'm fairly new to The Bump and even I'm tired if seeing threads like this. Omg seriously, why start a convo like this? Do you just really want attention from the so called "mean moms"?
    Anyway, good night ladies. My insomnia led me here lol

  • The tone of this board isn't new... And more importantly it's not unique to the Bump. This is how the internet works when women are involved. Back when I was pg with DS 13 in 2002, the Bump didn't exist, but Delphi sure did (still does). The women & moms at the Isle of Whack would have made the "mean girls" here shake in their boots. IOW is the stuff of internet lore (seriously). No TOU violations, no need to creatively insult so as to avoid a violation. Just plain and simple bitchy snark at it's very finest.

    Anonymous boards on the internet are like this. I suggest finding a private FB group or a local meetup if you find yourself getting upset or hurt by the responses here. These type of message boards are not for everyone.

  • THESE POSTS are my least favorite thing happening on the Bump! Yet, I'm not going to make a separate thread to complain about it. It's one thing to argue within a current thread that something that has been said wasn't kind, it's quite another to make your own post about it!!

  • El oh el!

    :-\"
  • I just try not to let those negative people get to me.  I do not understand why people have to be mean to each others when we are all just mommies-to-be figuring it out.  Let's just ignore those mean people!
  • OP basically is saying, "ONLY RESPOND IF YOU AGREE WITH ME AND TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO HEAR." 

    Which is truly par for the course of calling us "mean moms" and "bullies" when other posters do not tell her what she wants to hear. We redirect, give honest advice, etc. I honestly feel that if a bumpie participates regularly in this board, they will understand the need for rules, redirection, and how fucking annoying certain posts can get.

    When I see posts like this, I think to myself, "You must not come here often." Will this bat shit craziness go on the whole time? Seriously? STAHP.

    I've tried to keep my mouth shut every time this happens (which seems to have been happening a LOT), but just had to quote this and say HELL YES. 

    If you find people mean and rude, just leave. Nobody is forcing you to stay and endure the "meanies" who clearly aren't going anywhere.

    As my mother used to say, "Like it or lump it."

  • This board is getting reaaaaally predictable.. When I get a spare minuet for TB I now think ''hmm.. I wonder who is calling us all bitches and mean today, I wonder who has made a whole new thread just to say this.. A thread that has been made lots of times, they politely get told don't clog up the boards but do it anyway" it's tiresome.

  • When I had my daughter, I used the bump. There was a mean girl club then too. I was friends with most of the bullies, and had my fair share of snark. I then had my daughter, me and the "mean moms" are all friends on IG. The funny thing is, is now that we all have 3 year olds, we realize that all that craziness was so dumb! I just laugh at the "mean moms" and think "they'll learn". Just ignore the girls who you don't like, and move on. It's not that serious, really. Don't let internet strangers hurt your feelings or get you worked up. Pregnancy is a really difficult time, and there is no sense in getting worked up over someone who doesn't know you, disagreeing with you.
  • My favorite part of it all is that most of them are first time moms but experts in every situation and symptom in pregnancy! I'm sorry but as a STM I don't listen to any of the crap they say anyways.

    I'm sorry.. But I don't believe I've been bitchy and to call all of us bitches is just plain rude when you don't know us at all. I was relevantly new here and told not to clog up the boards. Advice I went away with and listened too. It isn't hard. Don't post the same things. I want to come on here and read interesting things, things I haven't read before, I want to give support to those who need it. I don't want to have to read the same thing over and over again. It gets boring. Is it really so hard to just search before you post. Rather than trying to be all high and mighty and continue to do it?. Then post a thread about how we are all bitches and how you feel sorry for our partners and babies. If someone came up to you one day and had a conversation and then continued to come up to you everyday and have the exact same conversation wouldn't you get bored? We're all the same here, we are all expectant mothers and have questions and worries but we know it's common sense not to repeat ourselves. Don't judge us, you don't know us.
