DH knows, I tell him about things I learn. He knew when I lurked on TN and I had to learn the hard way about proper forum etiquette. He doesn't want to know about the 'yucky' stuff so I keep him in the dark about CM and such. He gets a kick out of some of the siggys though.
As I have just recently even started chatting with you all (I have been lurking for an embarrassingly long time) no he really doesn't know. He knew that I frequented the knot when we were getting married because I was a little more involved over there. Has not really come up this time around

No, he doesn't know. I don't even know how I'd bring it up or mention it. I'm mobile bumping from my kindle 90% of the time. My H thinks I read a lot of books.
MrRama knows and cares little to none that I'm on a forum. It is a normal activity for our household.
We're sitting right next to each other as I type and I just turned to him and asked, "So what are your feelings about me being a regular poster on a forum?" His response?
"I don't care. Good for you?"
Such a romantic.
Please note that due to the actions of TheBump and their parent company, XO Corporation, I no longer feel safe or comfortable posting regularly on this forum for my pregnancy journey.

Yes, but since I've been around here so long, I've met many amazing women, and many IRL. I have vacationed with one. Just today I received a couple of Christmas cards from bumpies, one from each of the boys' boards.

Yes. He likes me to tell him about funny things that happen/are said on here. When he comes to tell me goodnight, he sees me on my phone and asks, "You bumpin?" Yep.

Between laughing and throwing fits over trolls I would never be able to keep TB from him. I'm new HERE but previous to this I was relatively active on my BMB so he's been dealing with my mobile bumping problems for a while.
12/2007 Engaged * 1/2010 Married * 2/2014Started TTC

He knows. He doesn't care very much. He's extremely interested in my FF chart, more so than me at times! Which might sound weird, but he totally geeks out over numbers and charts. But as for bumping, he's "meh" over it. He just wants to see what I'm laughing at and that's pretty much it.
He knows but he's not really interested in what goes on. We don't really nose into each other's online lives. I do share names from Baby Names with him all the time which he thinks is fun. Bumping to me is like broadcasting video games to him. I think broadcasting is boring and he thinks bump is boring.
He knows! I talk about you guys all the time and I play cah and chat a lot so it would be hard to hide it. Also he is always looking at the gifs that are posted, sometimes I let him help me pick them cause it makes him special. Haha
He knows I'm on a pregnancy/TTC message board. He doesn't know what it's called, though. I've always been a forum, message board, social media, Reddit, etc. kind of person, even before I met him, and way before Facebook ever existed (remember Yahoo chat rooms and Livejournal??). So, even if I didn't tell him I was hanging out here, he'd assume I was doing something of the sort!
together since '03/married since '14/started TTC Dec '14 /Holy shit! BFP 12/28/14!
My husband knows I'm on here and he is interested by it when he sees me giggling on our couch at the computer and he asks, "is that the bump thing?" He likes that I have other people to talk to about our TTC journey then just ourselves.
DW has known from day one about my participation on TB and is totally fine with it. She blogs about our TTC journey and understands that we each have our own outlets through this process.
She knows about TK (she calls them "The naughty girls", spelled like that too), and now she's aware I'm on TB (no nickname for you guys yet...I'm sorry...we'll work on it).
She'll read over my shoulder, or I'll even send her links and be all "read this". She doesn't get internet forums, so she won't go on them herself, but she'll totally read what I'm reading and give her opinion.
Mine knows I'm on a forum and I may have told him it was the getting pregnant version of TK... he knew I was on TK. He doesn't ask much and I don't share much other than if someone else has had a similar experience or had good advice that worked for them. During our wedding I used to use the ettiquete board to steer him in new directions...
me:41 dh:43
Off Mirena Nov 2013, On Nuvaring end of Jan, Back off Sept 2014. Never ending cycle starting end of Sept...
11/14 Provera failed... cycle continues
12/14 High FSH (57 "midcycle") OBGYN had no clue... about anything
01/15 More lab results coming back from RE. U/S showed small (1")cyst on left ovary, thin lining, and couldn't locate right ovary so possibly straight to DE and IVF
Occassionally mess with the chart below to see "what if" and learn (not to make it pretty but because FF stays drunk with me).
Same here, DH asks if I'm "bumpin'." He's been so supportive throughout this process. He knows I need help with all of this and that TB is just what I need. He never gets upset if I'm playing CAH or lurking. He asks when we're going to a Duck's game @danacullyx lol.
Even though you left out a letter from my name, @getzystark, you are welcome anytime! We will make those Ducks win!
He knows, because he wondered how I knew so much information about TTC and cloth diapers. Plus, he sees the icon on the tablet we share. I don't think he's interested at all, though. I don't discuss details unless we're already talking about something on that topic and I recall something from TB. I think he appreciates that I have another outlet for my baby-talk.
He sure does! He gets concerned though, about internet privacy and sometimes is skeptical of the legitimacy of the people online. He gets worried for my safety, I suppose. I explain to him that not all of y'all are bonkers
I kid, I kid. I tell him to appreciate TB because without it, he would get stuck with all my bitching and cycle talk.

DH know I am on a pregnancy board but does not ask any questions. I try to get on at night especially when he is playing the PS4. I think its an even trade off.
Re: Does your SO know you are on TB?
As I have just recently even started chatting with you all (I have been lurking for an embarrassingly long time) no he really doesn't know. He knew that I frequented the knot when we were getting married because I was a little more involved over there. Has not really come up this time around
