Listen lady,

You have been here for all of 30 seconds and are WHINING about getting support?
Take a few min (hours/days really), go through threads, and not only will you find a SHIT TON of SUPPORT, but you might figure out HOW to get it.
I don't post or reply because of situations like this. I see plenty of women being bullied for (yes, sometimes) their no so thought out posts... i am on here everyday reading about people and whatever they have to say. Because I am genuinely interested.
Here everyday reading?? Hmmmm not sure I believe this. If you were being honest you would have known how this post was going to go over.

I didn't think it was a ridiculous question or topic of conversation at all... seriously... it's not like I'm asking if I should down a bottle of castor oil to induce labor. I'm not ignorant. I only wanted conversation.

BelleLilFinn · December 2014

I know how to google. But thank you for saving me the time!

So you just thought..... Hey I'm gonna start a post. First I'm going to state I'm not asking a certain question. Then I'm going to list all the regular/common pregnancy symptoms I'm having. Next I'm going to ask in a complete round about way they question I stated I wasn't asking. This will be a great conversation.

Seriously if you were an honest lurker you would see the Monday bitchfest (full of bitch about my pregnancy symptoms), tmi Tuesday (full of bitch about my pregnancy symptoms), WTF Wednesday (full of bitch about my pregnancy symptoms).....

Shall I continue?

nwsnowbunny · December 2014

I'll play. I've had every single symptom of impending labor, including true contractions, cramps,diarrhea, MP loss, etc for over a month, and am partially dilated and effaced. No baby here. Not sure how knowing that will help you though. I could have a Baby tonight, or never progress and end up induced or with a c-sec. No possible way of knowing.

If you have been lurking and reading the threads, even for one day, you would know what the response here was gonna be.

I'm not asking if im in labor... geez! I KNOW what labor is like. Idk what a troll is, I'm not online enough to know all of the lingo so excuse my 'ignorance'... i am not aware of what "bullshit" I have brought to the table. This is supposed to be a supportive place to talk to other expecting mothers about our pregnancies and other things. Sometimes we all need about place to go to feel welcome. I suppose this isn't the place.
I believe the place you are thinking of is called Cheers. It's got its own song and everything...
Okay... so if I can't find support, conversation, or positivity, what is this place for?

I am sorry internet stranger I have never talked to before, let me hold your hand and tell you about my discharge so we can commiserate together.

That would be true if I was bitching. I now know you don't genuinely care about inviting anyone new into your little circle. I apologize if you somehow was offended or irritated at my incredibly simple question I asked in attempt to make some 'friends' on here. We all started somewhere.

BelleLilFinn · December 2014

You don't have to believe me. That's your choice. I really actually usually only read the bitchfests and birth announcements. Because most of you crack me up and i need a good laugh and people to relate to.

My point was you would have freaking seen that we are all experiencing the same/similar symptoms as you!!! For the love of all that is good we are at the end of our pregnancies!!!! Things are changing for each and everyone of us. At some point over the next 4-6 weeks all of our normal pregnancy symptoms will result in babies.

So you read the bitchfest and see who is having the same symptoms as you, you then read the announcement thread and see out of those with symptoms had babies..... But yet you still decided to start this thread?

Very true! Excuse me for wanting to START a conversation about our pregnancies. The hostility is not needed.

Yes, and that somewhere is:

1. the click and read this blog first thread

2. Lurk. Seriously.

3. Introduce ourselves

4. Comment and support eachother (this means GIVE support if you want to get it)

5. Search and google and search some more

6. Establish some trust with people, no one wants to talk about their bloody/mucousy vaginas with a true stranger

Thats where I started anyways...

nwsnowbunny · December 2014

Im actually eating this right now.

nwsnowbunny · December 2014

After all our recent pizza talk, I had fancy pizza tonight. It was garlic chicken. And a huge pile of seasoned fries wih herbs dipped in ranch and fry sauce. Then i had a sip of some of my friend's delish blackberry wine. Now the icecream cookie sandwich while I bump in bed. Oh, and been listening to lots of Ed Sheeran lately. Aaaand re-reading Outlander.

nwsnowbunny · December 2014

@stormygrace it was so good. I almost ordered a bottle to go for after LO gets here.

GradSchoolPrincess · December 2014

@nwsnowbunny‌ ditto on rereadingn Outlander and the Ed Sheeran, sooo
good!

Shortstack06 · December 2014

I had meatloaf, scalloped potatoes and mixed veggies for dinner. I am lame.

riansmommie · December 2014

Good cheap blackberry wine suggestion..... Blackberry merlot by Arbor Mist.

And yes I did just get my pregnant butt out of bed at 115am just to go take a pic of my bottle that I have chilling in my fridge.

riansmommie · December 2014

Also wanted to point out that OP created her account the same weekend we were invaded by BC..... I trust no one with an account that was created within a week of that weekend.

nedralynn · December 2014

I go to bed early one time and miss this?? Glad it changed to food quickly. I'm currently stuffing my face with frozen devil dogs. Yes I freeze them, they taste sooo much better frozen.

RaeChay · December 2014

With these kinds of threads I like to read the first page, see what drama has unfolded, and then read the last page. If there is food or hot guys on the last page, playtime is over.

MaineMama · December 2014

All this talk of fruity wine got that old song 'strawberry wine' stuck in my damn head

Shortstack06 · December 2014

@riansmommie‌ I have that bottle and a bottle of Boones in my fridge right now.

riansmommie · December 2014

Yummy @Shortstack06‌ I'm excited to pour a big ole glass of my wine as soon as my LO arrives

LinziLoo09 · December 2014

I feel the need to AW my lunch, and this seems as good a place as any to do it. Creamy grits smothered with crawfish, shrimp, crab, scallop, and bacon etouffee. Yay for no more pregnancy nausea steering me away from seafood. I want to eat five more bowls of this shit. mmmm

SeeRealSky · December 2014

@riansmommie‌ & @Shortstack06‌ I don't know if it's a Missouri thing or not, but there is a sweet blackberry wine by St James winery, and you can get it at Walmart.

Heaven. On. Earth. And it's under $10.

Jealous. So jealous.

Ditto! Sounds amazing!

kirstey728 · December 2014

Cannot wait until I can stuff my face full of lots of seafood again!!!

ALL THE SUSHI IN THE WORLD!

kirstey728 · December 2014

Spicy tuna is calling my name!!!

LinziLoo09 · December 2014

Oh pregnancy didn't prevent me from eating my sushi

I did my research and consulted with my midwife. Sushi was definitely eaten. I couldn't, unfortunately, stomach my beloved crab legs or scallops anymore. It was a devastating blow to my diet!

kirstey728 · December 2014

I didn't exactly fully trust any of the sushi places around town.

nwsnowbunny · December 2014

I'm a sushi-holic. I've been eating it this whole time. Just staying away from the raw fish varieties for now.

CandEChicago · December 2014

Anyone else ever read the line "just curious" from the random threads and think..."yeah, I am sure that is REALLY the reason you are posting."

Or that just me? Just curious

jamiedolley · December 2014

The way you women are responding to this post is exactly why I've never been a fan of or an active member of any of these sites, it's exactly why I've never asked or answered a question. I check the board for anything I may wonder and get out of here as soon as possible, and I don't check back again until I have another issue, question, whatever, you're all nasty to one another and it's not necessary. She nor anyone deserves to be treated like an idiot for asking about other experiences, don't any of you sit here and say you haven't asked someone, anyone else, what they went through at a certain point in their pregnancy. And I'm certain the person you sought guidance or advice (site or in person) from didn't jump down your throat with a response like "ask your doctor you effing moron, my pregnancy isn't your pregnancy, duh!" In my opinion most of you are complete hormonal jerks(some of you may even just be jerks in general, judging by the way you choose to respond) we are all pregnant and we are all experiencing changes we may or may not understand, show a little class and compassion and if you want to share your experience then do so, and if you think the post is dumb and the poster is an idiot, move on to something you feel like being positive about, want to make someone feel less than themselves? Do it to someone you actually know, use your husband or someone in your personal support group who has to put up with your attitude and your need to be an asshole for the remaining few weeks, how about we all just try to be decent people and try to have some tolerance for others?
.. And I'm done with my only post ever, peace out its been real

Shortstack06 · December 2014

So OP, you created a second account and had to wait 3 days to WK yourself?

Cryssteen · December 2014

Awwww WK, I'm so sad you don't post here often. We are missing out on some quality input.

Shortstack06 · December 2014

@misskilljoy thanks, I was mobile in McDonald's drive thru. I see that now. It just seems amazing that out of all the supportive threads at the top of our board, WK chooses this thread to post on.

@jamiedolly - Wait...did you just call me an asshole? You do know name calling is considered a TOU violation? So you might want to watch yourself on name calling.
@Slaps‌

Side note: since my LO is now here do the WK comments not apply since I don't have a "remaining few weeks".

kirstey728 · December 2014

Sorry people are so insensitive, HP!

What this and many of the WKs don't understand is that were being "rude" as they call it because they're being "rude" first.... Indirectly so, but how would they feel if some stranger came into their actual community and started to say insensitive things not knowing what the community has been through??

I'm sure they would be pretty pissed off....

jamiedolley · December 2014

A. I did not call anyone an asshole specifically, no where in my comment did I tag anyone, i am not "name calling" (although I'm sure there was name calling on pages 1-3 that maybe I should have just reported instead of commenting) and b. I am aware of what a tragedy you are going through HP, I am incredibly sorry for your loss, and believe it or not, stranger to stranger, you have been in my thoughts and prayers, I can't even begin to imagine how you feel, and I'm terribly sorry for what you're going through and I don't have to know you and be apart of this to feel for you, you seem to have a huge support system here, it's very obvious that not everyone who browses these posts or comments holds the same level of respect you hold, but also, I was not talking to you either, again I did not "reply"to anything specifically that you posted, nor did I tag you in anyway, and if I choose to stay and browse that's my right, you all are so quick to defend those you know and say people can post what they want to but the second I say my piece (for the first time ever) I'm told to "be gone"? there were some truly nasty replies that were uncalled for completely, if you did not make them then you should know my comment does not refer to you, and I'm sorry but I don't feel it's my loss to try and be apart of this crowd, that's pretty much all OP was trying to do and look what happened, people pounced and made her feel like an idiot when they themselves didn't even have to open the thread to begin with

Shortstack06 · December 2014

Just curious, but I thought this post was about food. I don't like sushi (fish allergy) but I do love me some Hibachi.

Want a personalized experience?

Just curious!
