@KristinMTBell ummmm correction there, last time I checked this was an app for pregnant ladies so yes we all are going through the same thing.. All on here for the same reason.. We are expecting a baby..
If that was directed at me then I do sincerely apologise for my little error there.. Can you ever forgive me for such a terrible error.. So uneducated you see
Defensive slightly.. Hahah you joker I never said we are all the same because we are all expecting.. But we have one thing in common we are pregnant and many people do go through similar experiences or able to relate in some way!
@KristinMTBell Ohhh gosh don't think you are comprehending me very well.. If that's my inabilities at reading that's the root of all this frustration i do apologise.. Ciao xxx
@lpinup you know for someone who claimed to feel "intimidated" by those who give "nasty comments" you sure are holding your own and don't seem all too intimidated.
I don't normally join in but this is out of control. Everyone told OP what she needed to do. If she couldn't handle a picture with some words in it I'm not really sure how she functions in day to day life. Life isn't roses and butterflies.
I agree, it's people like OP and @lpinup that have made TB the way it is today. The ones who don't come around enough to actually know how TB works. It's overly sensitive ,butthurt people like this that have made TB the sucky place it is. For now on if someone post a question like this I'm just going to tell them they're in labor and they need to head to the hospital. That seems to be what they want to hear anyways.
@KristinMTBell I in no way think you were out of line and if this is how it's going to be then the bump lost another so called "bad apple". Maybe our society needs to focus on reading comprehension a lot more. I'll make sure to bring it up at the next school PTA meeting.

@lpinup Sweetie the fact that you think this is an "app" for JUST for pregnancy is cute and just proves your level of ignorance.
ETA : I need to say more but can't because of the lack of clarity in the new TOU!
OP, seriously, just call your doctor. It'll ease your mind and you won't have to hear bs replies. Pretty much, don't seek medical advice on here. Even if you ask for personal stories, everyone seems to raise hell!
You folks are all too funny! Is it against TOU to say how this entire thread made me belly laugh?
The idea of taking time to "look through the Internet" was awesome!
Also, is calling someone a WK against the TOU? I'm confused on the new guidelines. Who is the mod?
I think people view this place as a question and answer forum rather than a community and it seems the new tone is an intensification of that error rather than a correction of it. Sadness.
Also, here is a picture of an "alot", because they're so cute!

@emiller91 do tell me where OP asked for personal stories? Because she specifically asked, "could this mean my bubba comes early?" I took this as, hey with all my super common third tri symptoms and lightening (NOT dropping), can you all look into your crystal balls and predict if my LO will make an early arrival?
The answer is still, hmm if you're panicking call your doctor and ya know, we can't really answer that for you.

Well obviously you should REread things. Nowhere in my post did i say SHE SPECIFICALLY asked for personal stories. I said IF. IF. IF.
She doesn't need to feel like she can't ask things.
And, do tell me where using the phrase 'baby dropped' is banned. Everyone knows what she meant!
Good luck OP (:
@emiller91 ,and you are? If you're a lurker you should know questions like this aren't very welcomed. If you are a noob you are part of the reason TB is crap today. It says in the new and improved TOU "Every pregnancy is different" and to not ask questions that you should be asking your doctor because "Bumpies are not trained professionals and cannot give medical advice". Noone knows when her baby will come. If she doesn't know then what makes her think a bunch of internet strangers will know "if her bubba will come early"? SHE HAS BEEN IN PRE TERM LABOR! If she has any concerns/questions and is "panicking" (her own words) she should CALL HER DOCTOR. But nice White Knight attempt.
I just think it's sad how defensive, weirdly protective you are of this page and how you all have this crazy system of what can or can't be said.. Still would LOVE to be given the rule book what is acceptable to talk about on this "page". It's frankly shocking how you can't see how some of you are being just plain rude!! Telling someone to call the doctor is fine flying off the handle going off into rants about how we're uneducated and stupid is another story.. Like I said it's the same 5 people that love to rant off at others and it's boring.. And ummm sweetie who are you to be getting up yourself asking "and you are like they are beneath you.. Aren't you just a 18 year old kid LOL @HayleyBugg55

----QBF-----
Would you not be protective of a page where you have made life-long friends that are there for you when the times get rough and have supported you through both good times and bad times? How would it feel if some unknown person bursted in and started asking random questions that you cannot (and should not since you (general you) are not a medical professional) answer? Would that not bug you even a little?
The rules of what is acceptable to talk about on is in the new "guidelines". It specifically states that medical questions should be adressed to your DOCTOR, not on TB. What is so wrong in pointing that out to the OP?
Also, sorry for butting in, awesome F15 ladies. I haven't even made an intro even though I lurked the board since September... And now I feel like the fantastic vibe that this place had may be gone and that makes me sad =((

Lolol, so the thread specifically asking for personal experience about dilation and effacement totes went up in flames huh? Uhhh... No. Because OP asked for personal experiences. So that's what OP got.
PS: I never said that the phrase baby dropped was banned, I simply corrected. Maybe you should reread things too

So because OP is 22 and clueless only older members are allowed to pat her head and give her advice? Please leave @hayleybugg55's age out of this. We're all supposed to be consenting adults here.
Sorry but you can't say leave someone's age out of it and then in the same sentence go on about someone else's... Contradicting much.. Or just overly protective...
It's because of bullshit like this that I don't want to be here anymore.
@lpinup perhaps you need to re-read the posts before the OP went off. She was told to call her doctor. She was informed of the new guidelines that we are not google or doctors. We are internet strangers. No one told her she was stupid for asking the question and no one brought up her age. The OP was the one who used the fact that she was a FTM and 22 as an excuse for blatantly ignoring the very first post that is stickied on the top of the page. I don't take kindly to stupid excuses. I too am a FTM but I read the guidelines. When I go to put something together I read the directions. These are clearly stated at the top like I mentioned. To me this is pure laziness and entitlement and that will not go very far her on TB or anywhere else. NO ONE actually called her stupid. Please show me where that is? The GIF said "I don't know how to answer that." How is that calling someone stupid? I asked my boss a question the other day and he said he didn't know how to help me and didn't know how to answer that. Did I go off and say he was calling me stupid? NO....I went and figured the shit out on my own. The idiocy and butthurt is getting ridiculous and frankly I don't want to be around for it.
And to continue your debate. We are not all going through the same thing. Everyone situation is different. Everyone's pregnancy is different. I take major offense when you say "hey guys we're all going through the same thing." NO WE ARE NOT!!!!! And BTW this is not a pregnancy app. It is a community for everyone. Women with children, women trying to get pregnant, women who have lost children, even dads. This community is not just for women who are growing children in there utes. Perhaps you should get your facts straight first!!!!
Quite frankly lady, i dont give a damn if you know me. Which is why i don't post much. But when someone asks a question and you all are out to make her feel stupid, why even post!? Thats rude. And no, no. The bump is crap because of insults like youre handing out. What, do you think because they banned the good ladies with real advice, you're taking their place. Lmao. Ohhhkay.
Someone fucking ban me now. This whole community needs to be deleted. And a few of you need to grow the hell up.
Go ahead. Make fun. Post your gifs, because you can't come up with your own material.

@emiller91 PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me who was rude and who made her feel stupid in the first 10 comments? They told her to ask her doctor and that we couldn't help her. How is this being made to feel stupid? People only got rude after she came back upset for no fucking reason and insulted an entire country. In fact the only one being rude was the OP herself. i just don't get it!!!!

@lpinup , I may be 18 but I'm obviously more mature and smart enough not to ask medical advice on the internet. I never said they were beneath me so stop trying to dissect every little thing someone says and make an argument into it. Yes, I'm 18. So what?? Also, you stated you wanted to see an "rule book". Go to the first page and look at the new and improved TOU. It shouldn't be that hard to find.
@emiller91, I was unaware that telling someone they should call a medical professional who has received schooling/training rather than asking a forum full of internet strangers was the same as calling someone stupid. But thanks for the heads up!
Parenthood is not rainbows and glitter, and if anyone here can't handle real advice now, than they need to give themselves a serious reality check.

Just a reminder that this place is shit now so that we can cater to people like this...
It's always the people in the wrong who start hurling the insults first. Sigh. Its like when someone cuts you off in traffic and you honk the horn to let them know your car is there so they don't hit it and then they give YOU the finger.
I genuinely think "some" of you have too much time on your hands to be going on the wAy you do. Simple solution if you don't like a question that is being asked carry on scrolling and read a different post, don't even need to start going off on one.
Actually think it's a bit of shame.. Oh well good luck with your births etc.. Let the haters hate.. Peace out ✌️
Re: Bump dropped?
And this thread has been entertaining. Me thinks OP will be back in the future.
