1. There are daily symptoms threads you can find by using the search function.

2. It's perfectly normal.

HBirdie · July 2015

Okay, now I'm SURE we're being trolled.

VitaLuna · July 2015

I have two expert opinions:

1) you need to poop
2) you're totes having triplets

I'm going to go with #1. As a one time deal, this medical advice is on the house. You're welcome.

OP, this question has been asked three different times in the first two pages (maybe even on the first page, I didn't look yet). Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the way this board works and check out at least the first page for questions similar to (or in this case identical to) your own before posting. Thanks.

That gif! I'm dying! Lol

Monkeybutt80 · July 2015

yes, based on the size of your bump, you are probably about 9 months into this pregnancy. congrats.

You all make me feel very discouraged. I'm 11 weeks with twins and feel like my stomach is getting firmer. DH even mentioned it without me ever mentioning it to him. I get that y'all are having innocent fun, but don't forget the things you say (or don't say) can be very hurtful. I get annoyed too that people are constantly putting these posts, but what does it matter? It doesn't personally affect your life, so why be so mean about it?

Stage 1: I don't care about duplicate posts. What's the big deal? Stop policing meanies.

Stage 2: ok people it's getting a little annoying. But I can deal.

Stage 3: OMG seriously people, ANOTHER bump post...

I totally agree with @sbegnaud93. I know it can be annoying to read the same thing over and over again, but at the end of the day the person posting has a concern. Although her concern may seem trivial or repetitive to some, making her feel bad for asking is not gng to make it go away.

Asking again isn't going to make the answer change, either...

Even if it was a stupid question, if no one's asked it, fine. Ask away. But there were literally three other posts asking about ten week bumps in the last couple of days. It takes two minutes to read through the posts of the first two or three pages before you create a new post. This is what OP should have done.

VitaLuna · July 2015

Considering that OP never came back and this is the third (fourth?) same exact post, I'm still thinking trolling.

Also, I stand by my opinion. She probably needs to poop.

I agree, but how many times have we told people to not post duplicate posts, myself included? People don't pay attention, but making fun of them is just going to make them feel like crap, not aid the situation in any way.

Maybe they'll start paying attention!

There are hundreds of women on this posts. We have a handful that are frequent posters. The ones who post stuff like this, are the ones who never get on. It won't change anything, it's like kicking at a dead animal.

Honey, literally anything can be considered hurtful. Nobody is gonna walk on eggshells here to "not hurt people's feelings". If anything, they need to develop thicker skin. We've seen people here get all pissed off for someone saying they or something they said was silly. For real, TB isn't unicorns and rainbows.

And I agree. I'm not saying that everything someone says won't hurt someone's feelings, but when the first comment someone gets is NeNe Leakes rolling her eyes, it's just mean, not hurtful. At least put a link to all of the other 40 posts about bumps at 10 weeks.

I find it funny that white knight is being pissy with @HBirdie of all people in this post. I thought her response was the most snark-less of all of them.

Never said anything about her, never mentioned anyone in particular except for the first commenter. We started having a conversion about the post that I made, and the conversation developed from there.

How bout we designate you the official link poster?! Because the jobs all yours if you want it

Yeah, no, but if people have the time to find gifs, they probably have time to find the links

MamaFroFro · July 2015

I'm mobile so I'm out

moomee · July 2015

Definitely trolls. There's an 11 week "bump" post now.

txbrideinblue · July 2015

pssst, there is trollier trolling going on than the bump posts, lol!

sbegnaud93 · July 2015

I agree, she's most likely a troller, haha. But if y'all think that this community is bad about double posting, y'all need to check out "Glow Nurture" and look at the February 2016 board. It's SOOO much worse than this...and even worse, everyone agrees with them.

OMG I was so bloated this morning and was thinking how hard my stomach felt. Cut to three hours later, went to the restroom (sorry a little TMI) but I'm pretty sure I lost 3 lbs. I feel like a new woman!

breealden1 · July 2015

Ok I'm sorry I even posted anything. I didn't have the time to read through I was busy. I had a question and you guys don't even know me so why even post anything. This is why I never ask other women in the same position as me questions because they are always rude. Get a life.
