Good grief, I didn't even know to look for groups! Is this where the November ladies started their private board? Oh well - me and my naive self are just going to keep moving forward right here...

haha... that's the same thought I had! I never look at any other groups. Maybe I should start?
Ahh! I'd rather stay out of any potential drama. I really don't think it was started by anyone in October. There was quite a bit of drama on another BMB thread where the word "elitist" was used. I'm sure it's just stemming from that and has nothing to do with us.
Yeah, I just went over and read the zika thread. Definitely started by an N16'er. And I agree that we should just move along... buuuut it kinda pisses me off that they stole our board name and made a fake group all because of the drama between them and ONE person from our board. Why are they dragging our entire board into it?? Seems a little ridiculous.
I've been gone on vacation over Memorial Day weekend and just got back to work yesterday, but had to take a short business trip yesterday too. So today is my first real day back-and I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon, so I'm only at work half the day. This is going to make coming back next week for a full normal week the absolute worst.
All that to say- I only really Bump at work, not on the app, and I feel like I've missed so much!
Just wanted to put out there that I got a maternity swim suit at Motherhood Maternity and thought it was pretty cute! More than I'd usually like to pay for a swim suit (I'm a cheapo when it comes to suits and usually get them in the Fall at Target when they go on sale), but I'm excited to get to wear it some this summer. So I'd suggest giving them a try if anyone is still looking.
I guess I'm off to N'16 to check out the Zika thread... I've missed reading other boards' drama over the weekend!
Has anyone seen the "O16 Elitist Regs" private group? Did I miss something?
What the actual shit.
I'm pretty sure all of the regs on this board were in agreement that we didn't want a private group. Someone try to join it. I vote @MRSCORKER cause she's, like, the nicest person ever. They can't refuse the nicest person ever lol.

this is actually crazy. I agree though, I'd love to see inside. WHY DO I LOVE INTERNET DRAMA. gah.
I can't believe someone started that group. How petty. Anyway, my H is being a turd today. Hopefully his attitude will be better after a nap. Or maybe mine will. Either way, nap time is the best time.
Hi guys just checking in. Baby seems to be lazy today, but I'm pretty sure I felt a few little movements, so I'm trying to stay calm and not freak out. I have my usual apt tomorrow at 8:15am, so I'm gonna wait for that. I have an AP which I also did last pregnancy, and last pregnancy I was constantly in the hospital for NSTs, and I don't want to repeat that if not necessary. Anyways just wanted to update you. Would still appreciate some good vibes that everything is ok at my apt tomorrow morning.
Also, WTF? I've been a regular on the knot and bump for years and feel like such a newbie. I have no idea how to find groups, let alone participate in them. If we form one, will someone let me know!?
@JamieK1882Glad to hear you're feeling movements and I hope the little one keeps it up to reassure you! I had an appointment yesterday and the nurse practitioner told me (kind of out of the blue) not to worry about irregular movements until about 28 weeks. Good luck at your appointment tomorrow!
I was wondering why there was so much drama on the bump, and then I remembered that we're a bunch of pregnant ladies put together hahahahahah. Just think if this many pregnant ladies were together in real life discussing things. I bet stuff would get INTENSE.

And then everybody would start crying afterwards...
1- laying on your back is seriously not something to work yourself up about (particularly at this stage). You *will* wake up/move before it becomes an issue. Wait until later in pregnancy and you will understand what I mean (you feel like you're suffocating). The concern is about baby laying on your aorta, blocking oxygen to you and your own heart/brain etc, and then blocking blood and oxygen to baby secondarily. Call your doctor if you need to, but it's not something that causes pain (just like suffocating wouldn't cause your belly to hurt).
2- How bout that N16? Sheesh. I counted more than a couple TOU violations on that thread. Just sayin.

All of this, @JamieK1882. I was busy this morning and didn't have time to type it all out. I'm on lunch now so I came to follow through, but it seems that @NoraAurora has already covered it!
They recommend you not sleeping on your back for your own safety, not the baby's. I still sleep on my back all the time because my hips hurt when I sleep on my sides for too long. My baby's just fine and so is yours!
Mine isn't waking up in the night its the getting to sleep part. Around 4-5 pm every day I crash hard and I've been pushing myself to not nap and then try to go to bed by 10 but then I just lay there awake until 1 or 2am!
I enrolled DD in Pre-K today, she is officially a big kid now... seems like she was my itsy bitsy teeny baby girl just yesterday. I have the happy/sads now.
I'm in a training class at work today...we were going over a very boring PowerPoint with lots of numbers & statistics & I just started crying in the middle of it. My mind was wandering & I was thinking about a conversation this morning where DH hurt my feelings & the tears just started flowing. How very embarrassing....

O16 Elitist Regs and the description is "Keeping out stalkers" and "Pennylove" has no posts and apparently started her account today?

Also, no worries, no one is starting an actual O16 group.
