You must be pregnant with a due date in (or very close to) July 2017.
You must have no history of starting/causing drama
If there is any question or doubt about whether a member meets these criteria, the current members of the PG will vote via anonymous poll.
If a person is denied access to the private board due to lack of participation, she can request access again at a later time after participating a bit more on the main board.
**If you are currently a lurker: all hope is not lost! Introduce yourself in the intro thread, and then just jump in and start contributing to other threads. Your weekly ticker change is a great place to start, as well as the randoms. Soon, you'll be a valued member of the community, and can request PG access. There are currently no plans to stop admitting people to the PG, or to cap the group at a certain size. Anyone who doesn't suck is welcome.
Appropriate use of the private board:
One purpose of the private board will be to build trust among the group before potentially moving to Facebook in the future
The private board will be used to organize things such as labor buddies, where personal information may be shared with each other
Members may opt to use the private board for personal posts such as pictures, or a vent about work or your husband that you're uncomfortable with on the public board.
The private board can be used for any topics that could potentially draw unwanted attention from admins

Just want to mention, if you requested to join the private board and didn't get admitted, please don't be hurt. It's not a permanent decision! Keep posting on the main board, and as people get to know you better, they will become more comfortable welcoming you to the private board as well. I promise we're not trying to be mean girls, we just want to be really cautious about not inviting random strangers into the small group.
I had no idea we could do private groups on the bump! I have been here from day 1 and host 2 threads so hopefully that means my request with be accepted!
How does it work if we were originally rejected from the private group and want to be added after becoming more active, it won't let me (at least on my computer) click the button to apply anymore since I was already rejected once?

If it's not letting you click the button again you could try waiting longer (depending on when the request was initially declined) or you could message one of the mods.

I haven't requested to join just yet because I've started being more active this month. I've been here from the beginning but lurked for the first 12 weeks just incase of a loss. (PGAL) I was also very sick with motion sickness for close 20 weeks so I stayed off for some time and posted occasionally. After that it felt odd jumping in on most conversations. I only started posting more frequently after the "calling all lurkers" thread came out. That thread made it easier to start jumping into conversations and participating.
i'm confused. i pm'd @SaphireSweetie88 but haven't received a response yet so i'm posting my question here. can someone explain why i was kicked out of the group? i haven't been active the past week or so because of work but i feel like i was a pretty regular poster before then. tia!
