What fresh hell is this? Our third Tuesday this week? FFS. X_X
Well see what happened was ..... OP who's 35 and a FTM found out she was preggo at 3.5 weeks and the OB she went to gave her a weekly us because she had some spotting in the beginning. So she thought she was a cash cow so instead of asking why the reason for all the us she switched to a new Dr. Then this Dr sent her to diagnostic places to have 3 ultrasounds from 10w -20w and she doesn't know why. She also lives in an area that has the highest cs rate which may explain it all. So she asked us and everyone gave her answers but a majority mentioned ..... You know "maybe ask your Dr". I know the nerve of us. So now she just doesn't like this place but is staying.
Intense pain comes & goes. Just had a moment where I couldn't get comfy & I was in so much pain I sobbed loudly & ugly cried. I'm better now & in a tolerable position...I've been in bed I feel like for 3 whole days...idk how you handle bed rest?! Which speaking of how is everything going with you?
I am not 100% sure how I am handling it. I feel like I am being punished, but DH just bought bamboo pillows and a new down comforter so I am enjoying being in the bed. I have been doing random things in bed: Christmas cards, folding laundry, reading, stretching. DS1 was home today so he entertained me for a few hours (15 year old boys are weird creatures).
Oh and Who cares if people are newbies or if people have been on here forever (cos you know they have no other life) they think they deserve a medal or someshit LOL
Karma will get them as what goes around comss around
Some people have only been around for a couple of weeks and have already become what I would consider a part of this community. It's not about the amount of time you're here, it's about contributing - that's what makes you a part of this community.
Why I'm trying to reason with people who always come back with the same poor arguments and Bingo card-worthy remarks, though...
I've been here a few months since I got my BFP. I lurked at first and then I've asked my share of questions and contributed to others. I'll be honest, at first the snarky responses got to me and my raging hormones. But I've never posted on other sites and I don't feel the need to. I feel welcome here! I've come to accept the snark and love it! Hell I may have had snark of my own. In one of my recent posts/rants I even asked for criticism. These ladies are awesome. And @ramy3 is a great mod! Keep on keepin' on lovely ladies, the trolls can go live under their glittery bridges :-h

It's a BOY!
May 2015 January Siggy Challenge: "You had one job"
All these "Snarky and mean" ladies that you are pointing out have been NOTHING but supportive. I have been here lurking then joining in since late September.
These woman have been here while I learn more about what my son is going through and helping me mentally prepare for what's to come. If you think that you can pop in here and start this crap against people who are not all butterflies and rainbows 100% of the time. Then maybe you should change communities. We may be snarky, rude and judgmental but we like each other. So deal or GTFO
I guess the part I don't get is that there really wasn't that much snark or nastiness on her u/s thread...OP you might want to just try growing some thicker skin if you're going to be posting here.
But starting this thread was probably the worst thing you could do if you want to feel like you're part of this group. I think the way everyone comes together when the board is being 'attacked' exemplifies exactly how much of a community we have here...
Just swinging by to see if anyone has a miniature violin I can borrow. Can't deal with these woe is me, everyone is so mean posts! Get over yourselves and move along. We are quite happy with our community they way it is.
Edit- Because typing before my contacts are in is stupid and reckless.

May '15 January Siggy Challenge.....You had one job...
I'm not super active on this BMB like I was on my last, but I have to say this is probably the nicest and most supportive bump board I've seen. The ladies here don't use unnecessary or excessive snark, they genuinely care about the women who post, and everyone gives fantastic advice.
Sure some other places on the bump are "mean" but this board for one, isn't one of those places.
You don't like it, no one is forcing you to be here.
1st BFP- March 2011. Natural MC @ 8 weeks
2nd BFP- July 2011. Chemical Pregnancy
3rd BFP- Sep 2011. My beautiful son was born May 2012. 4th BFP-August 2014- Due May 12, 2015
I honestly question why people stay here if they think everyone is so mean. No one is forcing you to be here. If you have enough sadz to create a thread to berate this already established community, you need to reevaluate your decision to continue reading and posting here.
Your a moderator? Wow. You need to re-read my post. I was not referring to EVERYONE on this site but was talking to most of the people that responded to my post How can a community be "established" when a pregnancy is only 10 months and this is a group for May due dates?
You may want to re-think your role as a moderator as you clearly are not doing it.
That's a dumb thing to say. Clearly most of these women have had more than one kid, if you care to pay attention, and just because pregnancy is only 10 months long doesn't mean you can't still speak afterwards. Face palm please. This is my first kid and I have leaned a lot from being on this site. If you ask a dumb question then be prepared to get a dumb response. I'm pretty sure that's how life works. Most of these ladies have common sense, and since I am a teacher I see a lack of it these days, so it's nice to see them using it. There are plenty of supportive responses on here so quit trying to WK and make yourself feel better.
I don't understand the crazy amount of people who have been coming on here to start drama lately. Being a member of this board has been a wonderful experience for me as I know it has been for so many others. I'll admit, at the beginning when I was a lurker I was a little afraid to post silly FTM questions, BUT literally every question I have had was answered without even having to start my own post. It's great to have people who understand exactly what you are going through at every stage of your pregnancy and are so unbelievably supportive of one another. Pregnancy can be a scary thing, and this board has been such a huge stress relief for me. Guess I just wanted to say thanks and hopefully the trolls starting drama will fade away soon!
OP-I am more of a lurker. Many of these women have gone through infertility and losses. When women come on here and ask for sympathy because they didn't like how the doctor spoke to them, or they want someone to guess if their baby is a boy or a girl, it gets a bit aggravating. We want healthy babies and don't care about the sex of a strangers child. Other than stupid posts like that I don't feel that these women are ever rude to those who truly need support. I don't feel that a lecture is going to help these women want to give you any sort of support.
Well said hun this is the reason I never bother commenting on here as the keyboard warriors and the internet trolls are so sarcastically rude and don't let you feel welcomed, nothing but negativity I kinda actualy feel sorry for them it must suck always being a negative Nancy and misrable hating so much, their lives must suck major.. how do they find the time to sit around all day long waiting for that little bit of daily action/excitement beats me. Always the first to comment with some smart ass childish remark. I can see their kids asking for a drink or something and them turning around yelling that's just great here's a face palm now go away I'm busy bumping away and neglecting you ) don't even bother reading their comments once you've had ur say leave it at that, I use another baby app and it's so much better/fun/cheerful on that.... Greetings from Australia :-h :P
Periods and commas can be your friend. Don't be afraid of them, they won't bite.
Anyways, to the OP - thanks for the random internet stranger scolding. Now run along back to baby gaga where you belong because you are definitely not welcome in this community.
OP the only reason I think you would post this thread is to get a rise out of the ladies here, just so you can come back and start your name calling, along with all the other WK's.
FYI, these ladies are very supportive, especially @ramy3 so drop it already, cause you're not going to change a thing around here. LOVE THE SNARK!

Wait so she is being asked to have multiple ultrasounds.. but has yet to ask the Dr why??? Hello?!?! What would you expect anyone to say to say to that!!
You're all a whole bunch of miserable hormonal pregnant bitches who need to be mean to everyone because you have nothing good in your life. Get the over your "I think I'm better than everyone" attitude. You're probably not getting enough dick in your life. Where the fuck do you all psychotic bitches come from? You sound like bullies from prison lol. Hateful ass bitches.

Yikes! We are psychotic bitches but your one and only post is this... I am not getting enough dick thanks for bringing up the sad facts
Lol funny how you have time to go on my page & see this is my only post. Go clean, or eat, or do something else with your life insted of trying to make yourself feel better by bashing everyone else with your "know it all" attitude.
So now, we have all these people who joined yesterday slamming the community. Goodness, we must be horrible for OP friends to come in here just to bash us.
Lol funny how you have time to go on my page & see this is my only post. Go clean, or eat, or do something else with your life insted of trying to make yourself feel better by bashing everyone else with your "know it all" attitude.
I didn't bash you or anyone else but again thanks for bring up sad facts for me. I am on bed rest so all I can do it lay in bed a waste all of my time looking at your profile. It hasn't made me feel better it makes me quite sad since you just keep on bringing up things that make me uber sad.
If you weren't bashing anyone then clearly this was not directed towards you. This was directed to the miserable bullies who have all the time in the world to be bitches to everyone for no reason. Sorry you're on bed rest, I wish your baby well, & I hope you get some dick in the near future.

Clearly you have no idea what any one of the ladies on this board are going through. S unless you plan to really be part of this community (which probably will NEVER happen) you should go back to where you came from and not return.
I am a part of this board so even if you weren't directly speaking to me you were because I am part of this community and when you bash one of us you bash all of us.
None of these ladies are miserable bullies they just don't sugarcoat ANYTHING and when they are blunt it is for good reasoning, perhaps if the poster that received the so called "bullying" stepped out of their "everything is about me" mentality and didn't treat this board like google they would have received great advice. So have a nice life on the board you came from that does not "bully"!
Okay so clearly you are part of the miserable bitches community, go back to bed and get some sleep, maybe you'll finally wake up on the right side of the bed.

You do realize I have been nothing but nice to you and yet you continue to use foul language towards me. So in our conversation the only bitchiness has in fact came from you. Why do you feel using such language is the right way to make other stop being "mean"? Two wrongs will never make a right.
It's not about sugar coating shit, you're all bitches plain & simple, you're pregnant and hormonal as fuck, you're only friends are probably these other miserable pregnant bullies on this "community" you're a part of. How about you try being nice & supportive of these other women who are also pregnant & looking for other pregnant women's support. Is this app all about being the perfect pregnant women who care about absolutely nothing but the fact that oh "you're baby is healthy so that's all you should care about". I hope one of the Dr. you deal with is an absolute dick to you or your feelings got hurt and you come back on here & rant about it so someone can tell you to get the fuck over it. Like I've said before you bitches need some dick.

What does this even mean? Don't abbreviate, that's "sugar coating".
