A note from Naria...

texasmama15 · January 2015

Today with NO warning, the moderators who rode out the storm of the last week were told their services are no longer necessary, as XO group will be replacing the volunteer moderators with “paid moderators” (read: staff) to help the community grow.

Mark my word, these “moderators” will NOT care about the Infertility and Loss communities. They don’t understand what it is like, they have not walked this road. They are just there to punch buttons and click things for their 8 hours a day and then leave it all when they go home. They are not invested in me, or in you, or in anything other than a paycheck.

All that said, I know that many of you have been hesitant to jump ship. I wanted to invite you once more to join us on the dark side at **** where the admins respond to our questions, and where the motivation to foster a community is truly altruistic and not simply the motivation to bring home a paycheck.

I do hope that you will consider relocating your community to the proboards- TheBump is not what made this community. Each and every one of you are. And that community won’t change simply because the URL at the top of your browser did.

So come join the Bad Apple family.

And they'll be all "Please bear with us. We are trying. YOU ARE BEING HEARD. Your frustration is valid. We are giving everyone a chance to speak. YOU ARE NOT BEING IGNORED. Communication is key. This is a tough situation. We are going to change. We have recorded your grievances."

Did I miss anything?

kc525 · January 2015

Washington was the only reason I even considered sticking around after the nonsense. Seriously - fuck off Bump.

Oops...I mean, I don't think you're being fair. I respectfully disagree with your actions.

The bump admins are making babycenter look good at this point

Just curious, is it mostly people from Infertility and Loss communities making the switch? I'm a new poster that sticks to Aug '15, but I'd hate to miss the boat if this place becomes too horrible with un-internet savy posters.

If you're all so anti "the bump" how about you go over to your new little page and blow all the crap you want out of your arses where the rest of us don't have to see it.

Since you had to throw in your two cents and all...also, who are you?

OOOO!!! The exact type of people we actually don't want in our new lair. Please pretend like you didn't see the link, no one will miss you. You're probably the type that asks questions without searching first, doesn't read books and wants a baby shower for your second kid.

With lots of kicks I bet!! Just so you know, @DeeMcBeath---you baby bump is just shit and the kicks are gas--let your farts out and take a dump.

DeeMcBeath · January 2015

You don't know anything about me. I don't ask questions at all actually. I have a medical degree. I don't need to ask a bunch of know it alls questions about me, my body or my baby. I'm here to support the women who want to be here. Trust me, I have no desire whatsoever to join your bitch fest over there.

DeeMcBeath · January 2015

Excuse me??? I've never said I'm showing at 8 weeks! You have me confused with someone else. Get your facts straight before pointing fingers.

Hahaha at "I have a medical degree".

Seriously, hilarious. Know one knows you yet you're claiming to support women. Who exactly? I don't see you actively supporting anyone. Bull shit.

DeeMcBeath · January 2015

Sorry. I don't have time for your little games. I have to see my patients who pay to see me and value what advice I give them. Have fun living your life as nasty bullies! Have a nice day everyone!

I find it hilarious when people desperately need to "brag" about their education or profession. If I've learned anything, it just means you ain't shit.

DeeMcBeath · January 2015

I'm not a dental hygienist. But thanks for taking the time to try and stalk me! Have a great day!

Please tell me more about how being a dental hygenist is the equivalent of being an OB.

This just keeps getting better and better. Also, doctor @DeeMcBeath‌ please use your analytical skills learned in medical school that teaches you to decipher sarcasm. Thanks a bunch!

I'm an Oral Health Therapist (hygienist and therapist) and I'm 9.4 with bubs 2. Oh yes. The smells. Aren't they delightful. They've seen me running from my surgery a number of times! As for treatment, we generally only do what is urgent. So, if you're in pain, get you out of pain. But general fillings etc we wait til after bubs. For no other reason than who wants to have dental work done when you're pregnant??!! Blah. Not me!! Good luck!

......Not a hygenist?

This is what the bump will become. A bunch of idiot liars who can't keep their lies straight and are trying to catfish you?

I'd love to see you get out of this one, Dee.

Guys, Dee can't answer right now, she's in surgery (read:can't come up with a sufficient lie right now)

aotto87 · January 2015

Secrets don't make friends, Dee! We deserve the truth! Are you a secret agent with a double life and can't keep your story straight?? I never met a secret agent before.

She's horribly busy counseling people on the importance of flossing at least once per day. Oral Health Therapists are usually non-US hygienists that focus on prevention measures for oral health.

Oral Health Therapists =/= Doctor. In any country.

I worked with an assistant that once claimed she was as qualified as a doctor because she'd worked in dental "forever". She didn't last long in our office, where we all actually stuck to our level of training, and didn't make dumb statements like this.

paigejenean · January 2015

Your nose is growing, Dee!

nbalkin · January 2015

When did a dental hygienist become a medical professional? This is news to me. @DeeMcBeath‌ please leave the advice giving and patient care to the real doctors with real degrees that say doctor.

You can't be serious right now... Your patients? Your medical degree?
Oh sweetie, the oldies aren't quite all gone yet. Wait til it's just you and the morons before you start with the ridiculous stories.

DeeMcBeath · January 2015

What none of you seem to realise is that I don't give a shit about any of you or your bully tactics. None of you know me. And all I know about any of you is that you're all mean women with nothing better to do than cyber stalk and waste time and Energy on just being flat out mean. Do any of you watch Russell Brand? He has strong opinions on people like you. May I suggest you take time out from your busy social lives on the bump and watch something that might enlighten you. Now, I'm going to delete my account because I have no interest in wasting my energy on a bunch of arseholes. Good luck raising children In a world that's filled with people like you. Sad. Very sad.

People like me eh? Beautiful intelligent women working every day to help cure horrific diseases, care about their family and friends and would fight tooth and nail to protect them and disgusted by people who try to call themselves medical professionals that have nothing to do with actual medicine. I would love a world like that.
