  • I was just on Pinterest and there was a pin about how much weight by week you should be gaining while pregnant. Remembering I had seen this thread earlier I clicked out of curiosity. It linked me to a site called "paleo Barbie" need I say more? I'm thinking OP could very well be paleo Barbie.
  • If you people have a problem with her question then don't come onto the board. She was just wondering. No need for snarky comments. Insecure ladies.

    I was going to just not comment to let this thread eventually die...but, little miss WK here pissed me off with this comment. First off, if you have a problem with the way the regular contributors contribute to this board, then YOU dont come onto the board. No one here is insecure. The people who are insecure, are the random people who decide to post a question and expect us to care, when in all reality we have never seen them make any effort to be a part of this community. The insecure ones are the ones who get butthurt because they dont like the truth. That is all.
    Some of us are insecure about weight and bodies. But that's a perfectly rational and 100% reasonable response to the society we live in. Pretending you're never insecure about your body is ridiculous as is acting like anyone with body insecurities is a crybaby who needs to go away [-(

    Yes people are insecure about their bodies and that's completely fair and if a little empathy is just to much for you to manage Sky please go away and don't come back
    You are absolutely correct. I am insecure about weight I have gained. A lot of women are. To come on a board however, and ask women how much they have gained, is very rude. Most of us dont want to speak about that because frankly, it is nobody's business. If OP spent any time at all lurking, she would have seen this is something that is not taken to lightly here and no one likes to talk about it.

    You wouldn't have much to spare lol
  • Don't take it personally @lailasage‌!

    They clamp down really hard on any dissent from newbies and seem to have a firm approach of "schooling" people as to how this "community" must be/behave..

    I really appreciate that you spoke up for the OP who has probably written this forum off by now. It was sweet. Be advised, you will face hateful comments from many directions now, but there are still good conversations and nice posters here if you are willing to stay!

    This is the first time I've noticed the creepy Facebook stalking, but I would be wary of real name or pictures with a geo-location embedded... This is quite the fervent group!
  • Just trying to offer support to another expectant mother. That poor OP.. :(. I missed the other woman who was mocked khan? And the one who was stalked on fbook..


    That's a really unsafe feeling.

    That's the point! They are being told that putting too much info is dangerous. They are obviously too dense to figure this out, it is then proven to them. Also how many fucking times do you need to be told to go away? You are boring me to tears with your wk high jacking of threads. Piss the fuck off!

    I guess keep trying? Forgive me for not seeing the several posts dissecting her name, mocking it and then searching for it on social media as intended to be helpful. It was creepy, and the mockery was puerile at best.

    I don't take being told to do anything very well. The rude behavior I continue to witness just solidifies my determination to be a positive voice for expectant moms who need.

    Responding to posts is not jacking. Just as posting positive messages on topic replying to other posters is not trolling. I will keep posting. I'm excited to be a positive voice for the next four months. I look forward to finding common ground with you where we can both agree!

    TGIF!
  • Isn't posting someone's real name/identity a violation of the site rules? There are so few rules... I know I saw that one written in the 2nd trimester forum.

    Dude. They are putting their REAL names as their USERNAME. No one is having to do any research or private eye shit to figure that out.
    Of course she did. She parsed middle initial v last name and then stalked her on social media!

    The short version: I said I would post more and be the change I want to see in the world. I am a person of my word.

    Longer version: I've seen great and compassionate posts, and I've seen awful mean posts. Silly me - I think the former is more true of the hearts of these women... I think they're just forgetting that newbies and drive bys are PEOPLE. People who shouldn't be mocked or shamed. Who knows how many have had their day or week ruined by the meanness.

    Vomit.
    I think everyone agrees that you are fucking annoying. Where is that ignore button?
    It's disappointing that so many feel compelled to ignore someone just for not agreeing with you.

    I'm sure we have things in common, and I hate to think just b/c you disagree re newbs that we can't find common ground. Still, do what you feel you must.
  • I know, right! The last 5 or 6 posts are just mean senseless comments about ignoring people.


    Kill it!
  • I've gained 35#. I'm 23 weeks today. When I got on the dr's scale yesterday I almost cried! I brought it up to my dr & she couldn't believe it!!! She said I look great & baby's measurements are all perfect & on schedule. I'm 28, 5'7" & weighed 145# at conception. I'm athletic built but small framed. I'm all belly. As long as baby is healthy & I'm healthy, I'm not going to worry about it!

    It sounds like you're on top of it.

    I agree, don't worry about it! Good for you.

  • I'm 5'2 107 pre-pregnancy and I've gained almost 5-7 pounds at 24 weeks. The belly and baby are growing so my med team isn't worried. :-h Have a good holiday everyone.
  • What is wrong with everyone these days??! Reading posts like this just make me want to delete this app. As a first time mom, I have nothing to compare my weight gain too and I don't think people asking this question, are asking to make other people feel bad about themselves. It's a common question that women often share and ask each other during pregnancy. It's odd to me that a lot of women have no qualms talking about other highly personal things to perfect strangers but weight gain questions get such rude comments. Have some self esteem and if ur that unhappy with ur weight gain that a simple question has u melting down and freaking out, maybe u should work out once in a while so u actually feel good about urself...
  • Embrace the "IGNORE!" It is so so empowering! :trollface:
