Hi Kyndra! Welcome to the board! There are a lot of threads at the top - Introductions and Read This First are a good place to start. Please don't feel embarassed. Your bump is beautiful . We really enjoy getting to know people on this board before getting too personal, not everyone might feel as comfortable as you right away. Others have encouraged before not using your real/full name and coming up with a screen name as its pretty easy to track people down over the internet.
This is a great board and I hope you stick around and get to know it a little better!
@Kyndra Williams its a public forum and not just an app ( Im on desktop right now) Please go into your settings and change your username- Anyone out there can find your FB or other personal information. We've all been new before- if you want to join us- introduce yourself, we've been getting to know eachother for months already. Maybe dont post naked pictures ..or do, just not here- we ain't that type of mom group...
I just found this part of the app and thought it was a safe place. Wish I knew how to delete it now *embarassed*
It's the INTERNET--anyone can see what you've posted. It's not private. That's why people are making a big deal. Even though you've deleted it, it is still out there in the interwebs...this is also why people are encouraging you to change your username.
@towntowns thank you for making me feel a smidge better. @Souptin and @jutondreau im aware that it could be everywhere and I just didn't see any shame in it until I got shamed for it. Sorry for offending people with my bump. It was all I had to share from this week.

Sorry you felt shamed. Wasn't my intention, but moreso making you aware that this isn't private. Most of us would not be comfortable with random, strange people seeing nude pictures of us which is where the shock and reactions are coming from
I couldn't possibly have been nicer to her. ....it almost hurt me to not up the snark ...and this is the response I get? Next time I flame someone new I want a free pass. I've earned it. Kyndra, good luck to you sister. .something tells me you'll need it.

Ugh. No one SHAMED you. And no one was OFFENDED, but I can say I was very surprised to see nudity on TB. Also, is that how you generally introduce yourself to strangers, in the nude?
Can I also point out that some of us Bump from work during breaks/lunch? I don't need to be flashing nude women to the rest of my office. If I wanted to do that, I'd be cruising other websites.
this is all anyone was trying to say @Kyndra Williams - it wasn't full frontal, which we all appreciate. no one was shaming you. it was more like "hey, in case you weren't aware, this isn't a private forum". your first post on a public forum was you naked in a bathtub...you didn't do an intro, you obviously didn't read the "Read this First" post, nada. We would love for you to be a part of the community here, and we were trying to give you a friendly "oh snap! you probably shouldnt do that" and you saw that as shaming/bullying? i just can't today.
Maybe its just how she makes friends IRL? I know when I introduce myself to a bunch of strangers I don't like to leave anything to the imagination. let it all hang out- Go big or go home right?
Re: HDBD 5/3 :)
Excuse my weird-shaped bump. I'm wearing a belly band and I think it makes me look funny because of the buttons
on my pants.
I love seeing so many new bumps this week.
Don't forget the full name too.
