This feels so strange! Any tips for a Bump oldie?

I used to be SUPER active on TB when I went through my first two pregnancies, and now that 3.5 years have passed I feel like everything is so strange and shiny and new! Was anyone else active around 5 years ago? For those of you who are active now, any tips? The app seems clunky to use (I really hate when I click the back button and it takes me to the top of the previous page instead of where I left off), I have no clue how to add a siggy/ticker, etc. Can anyone help an old lady out?

    Welcome back!

    To add a siggy/ticker, I believe you have log onto your computer. Click on the "head" icon in the upper right side of the screen and click on preferences. Then click on Signature Settings.

    As far as the app is concerned, it is a bit clunky and hard to add GIFs, but it's so convenient.

    Ah, thank you! Back to the laptop I go. Makes sense. Do people still use tickers these days?

    I was always on the bump with my first two pregnancies - they are now 4.5 & 6.5 years old! I feel JUST like you... Everything is shiny and new! Lol

    I feel the same way too! Haven't posted much, because I just can't seem to grasp it.

    I was super active with my first, born in November 2010. I feel like I can't remember anything now! I've seen a couple new abbreviations, but I don't think too much has changed. I guess you have to log in on the computer to see the tickers. I should probably do that and make sure I don't still have one that says my baby is 60 months old.

    I'm still trying to figure out the new stuff too! I started TTC here around 6 years ago and got pg with DD in 2012 so I've been off and on for a while.

    Hello!  I found this post because I was having the same ticker/siggy issues as well! I'm an oldie too, just back for our second go-around.  My daughter was born June of 2010!  Its good to see another old-timer!

    another old timer here too!  It took me forever to figure out how to update my siggy, even after multiple Google searches!  Things are very different!

    I was super active with my last pregnancy in my BMB (October 2013) but my youngest turns 2 in a couple weeks. I only come on TB at all when I'm pregnant :P Just peed on a stick today though and had a good shock so here I am hoping they stick in there! It's all super shiny and new to me too since the changes were mostly implemented when I drifted away after bubs was born.
