How long have you been around?

I am really curious to see how many of us are still on the board. I started early on in my pregnancy, but wasn't active a few months after my son was born because the app wouldn't work on my phone and I never have time for the computer. I got a new phone few months ago so here I am. How long have you been here?

Re: How long have you been around?

  • I joined when Dd was about 2.5 months (when I went back to work and bored in the pumping room)
  • I said late to the game because I didn't start posting until a few months ago. But I joined the Board right after I got my BFP.
  • Loading the player...
  • Right after my BFP

  • Part of TB for probably about 5 years, since trying for my first and having fertility issues. Was part of Jan. '12 board but mostly just lurked. I have been around A '14 since the very beginning and posted a bit in the beginning but turned into mostly a lurker when all the drama and snarkiness really kicked in. I have been much more active in the past few months since the mass exodus. I miss many of the old regulars, but this has forced me out of lurkdom!  
  • Hi all. I was active when I got my BFP last August and posted a few times but I couldn't keep up with everything day-to-day. And I agree there was some drama and snarkiness. After my daughter was born, I lurked while I breastfed but the app sucked on my phone. Also, I felt like because I hadn't participated much during my pregnancy, I couldn't rejoin the conversation. I started to participate in other groups for a while. I'm mostly a lurker but have had the itch to participate again.

  • I've never been a big poster, but I've been here since the beginning. I got my first account on theknot in '05 while planning my wedding but changed my sn after having #1. There weren't birth month boards back then in the ollllld days. :P

  • Smores730 I was part of the knot and the nest too...never posted much on either of them but yeah I remember the only "baby boards" were like TTC and babies on the brain to begin with and certainly no The Bump! We have come so far, lol!

  • I voted lurker because I have been here since the beginning but I only posted a handful of times. I'm glad I came out, you guys are so helpful!!!!!
  • I discovered the Bump in January 2014, but I lurked until I got the courage to start posting in September. I wish I had joined in sooner!
  • I knew about the bump, but I didn't know about the month clubs until December 2014! I am kinda mad I missed so much and there were a lot of times I could have used the support. But I am so glad I have you all now!

  • ScotchAggie I lurked for a long time very rarely posting for those same reasons! 
  • I was here shortly after my bfp. I posted quite a bit but was not "in" the crowd. After everyone left I stopped posting because it took me almost a year to get everyone straight and then bam it was a whole new group.
  • I've been around since the beginning of my pregnancy. Only posted a couple times. I have just always been shy and worried that I might be judged. Plus DD2 was originally due on April 27th but didn't come till May 2nd. So I switched to the may board but they didn't seem as friendly so I came back and have been kind of lurking ever since. X_X :-h
  • @TiffB93 you should join in! We'd love to have you :)
  • Agreed! Jump on in folks! The more the merrier!
  • I was a lurker for a long time too, and I must say, it's more fun to post! Come play @TiffB93!!
  • I'll definitely try to post a lot more. It'd be nice to have someone to talk to. I only ever talk to DD1 and DD2 and DH. I don't get out. Except for church and grocery shopping. Lol
  • I probably should have put ss. I was here from the time I realized I was pregnant but I didn't usually do a lot of posting just reading and Love It's, then I faded a little when I go busy with school and work cause using the mobile app isn't as nice as the computer ( which is part of the reason I hardly post, it's a pain typing out these messages on here) but have tried to get better and coming on here more again whenever I have free time.
  • I came straight here from the TTC board when I got my BFP. I lurked daily and posted pretty often but I don't think I was particularly well known.

    Apparently there was some drama and a bunch of people left and it seemed quiet and I got busy.

    I just logged in for the first time in months!
