I give up.

I've been on this app since the beginning of my pregnancy & I really thought it was a great online support group. But the last couple of months, I haven't felt this way & maybe it's the hormones - mine or yours - but I just don't feel like this helps, anymore.

So I'm leaving The Bump. I wish you all the best of luck & a safe L&D.

Awww. Sorry to see you go. At least come back and check in when your LO arrives! Best of luck!

Yeah, I joined at the start of January and for weeks now, I haven't ran into any of the people I'm use to seeing post in S15. Where did everyone go? I'm not on non stop, or even everyday, but I feel like I missed something?

Wishing you a great 3rd trimester!

Wait what's happened now? I've not seen anything.

I just checked that thread out @Rhill30 but it now says deleted. So not sure what the GBCB is all about.

People are silly to come here & think it's going to be all unicorns & sparking glitter rainbows.
Everyone has an opinion & not one opinion will be the same. If we all had the same opinion, then life on TB would be boring. What gets me is when people do post a new thread and others disagree, people moan and whine that that's not being supportive. So what to be supportive everyone had to agree? I'm afraid that's not how it works.

I have noticed the same and I want to believe it's because of the hormones. I just ignore the negativity

Sometimes ppl are busy n can't come in all the time... sometimes our hormones are crazy that we can't even stand ourselves lol
I still love this group n when ppl get on my nerves I don't even reply I just move on...
Good luck with ur pregnancy

If I leave, it'll be because I see the same posts over and over again.

Several about packing a hospital bag, Braxton Hicks contractions, people griping about MILs, baby name polls, etc.... There are a ton of threads on all of these topics. And I'm bored with it. I rarely see anything new or helpful.

Also, Google is your friend. Also, we are literally on a website with a plethora of information about being pregnant and half the questions are easily answered right here at this domain.

But I don't know any of you so if I left, I definitely wouldn't make a big deal out of it.

Well.... :-h

Since when do people started thinking that an internet forum is a group therapy? And why announce that you are disappointed in us? Honestly I don't care and I bet most of us don't care.
And I do agree with you @amylou512 . If I see another hospital bag post I think I'm going to lose it. Lol.

A lot of "the regulars" left after several people were banned. People come and go. No need to make a whole post about it.

mrstzouganos · June 2015

Just wanted to say that I find most of the posts helpful, but only comment and read the ones pertaining to my questions and concerns. If you don't want to be on here anymore why do you need to say goodbye? Like the PP stated we are strangers! Good luck and I wish you a happy and healthy baby!

I'm a regular

capricelili · June 2015

This reminds me of a recent Key and Peele skit about people who announce they are leaving Facebook on Facebook. It's like what if people did the same thing when they left a party. It was a pretty funny skit, sorry don't mean to make fun that you are leaving OP but this just reminded me of that. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!
As far as my reasons for staying despite many "regulars" being banned or leaving, as a FTM and being due at the end of September (26th) I feel like I get a lot out of it and I learn from everyone else's experiences. It's funny because I see that people start posting about symptoms about 3-2 weeks before I experience them, like lightning vagina ( I think it's lightning crotch but I like my term better), I started seeing posts about it 2-3 weeks ago and today I felt for the first time. Yawza!!! But it made me laugh and I wasn't worried because now I was like, oh I get it! That's what they were talking about!
