I really don't care about the opinions of people I don't have any respect for. Not going to lose a wink of sleep.
Being nice doesn't mean I have to put up with BS.

I feel this may have been meant for the UO thread? @kiki75 is anything but negative towards the contributing members of this forum.
Are we really going through this again?
And calling people out for being "negative" when they're actually really supportive is super lame.
Having spent over a decade teaching and working with teens, I'll be totally honest with you: your responses here and those I've read in the past are some of the most teen-drama-inspired statements I've read on TB. I don't think you hear yourself (or understand how you're coming across), if you truly think that you're in the right with the way you interact with others in this community.
I also don't think OP is a real poster because I think people create fake accounts to stir up fake drama like this, so call me a conspiracy theorist, but I think a lot of the WKing that goes on is for naught.
@kiki75 is pretty much the best, btw

If you need someone to hold your hand and whisper sweet nothings in your ear for you to obtain new information then maybe OP shouldn't have gone on a board and asked this question.
Not that she cares either way since she hasn't been back.
You know what I think? I think everyone was really nice. Mean would have been ignoring her question - or worse leading her to believe something incorrect. Instead people took time out of their day to Google the answer and report back with correct information. That isn't rude or disrespectful. That's helpful and honest.
I think it's disturbing to watch people receive reliable data and reject it because someone wan't treating them like a little special snowflake when they relayed the information.
But then an hour later I pooped. And the pain went away. It was just digestion.
So even if this is your 3rd pregnancy and you SWEAR you know the difference between gas or baby movement.... well... you might not.
I have to wonder if you enjoy the drama and you are here to constantly flame the fire. This is a board based heavily on scientific facts - something you clearly feel is debatable most of the time. perhaps this is not the right home for you ? I say this sincerely and with no malice - I honestly don't know why you are still here considering you basically can't stand any of us.

If I had to pick between one friend who sugar coated everything and a friend who was honest and straight forward I would always take the honest one.
I also think it's so silly to accuse these women of not being supportive.
Wanna know who cheered me on every step of the way with my infertility diagnosis and treatments? Many of the women you are calling unsupportive. They were my biggest cheerleaders when I got my BFP and when I post about my ultrasounds they gush right along with me. So no. You're wrong.
With my first there were similar posts (I was under a different SN then) about moms feeling baby at 10, 11, 12 weeks, and it took me a while (maybe 18 weeks?) to feel anything. Those posts about "omg I can totally feel baby dancing" at 10 weeks made me feel somehow inadequate because I wasn't there yet, and even though people were saying "I'm not saying this is normal, just that it's possible," it still felt like a humblebrag and that those moms not feeling it as early were somehow inferior.
Not saying that's the tone here, just saying I recognize how it might come off to some FTMs, and how reassuring, helpful, and supportive it is to be told the science and facts about your body and baby's development to understand what's going on and that you're normal. The movement will come, and when it does, you won't need to ask if it's gas or baby, you'll know.
Also, months after DS was born, I SWEAR I would feel the exact same "baby moving" feeling I did when I was pregnant. And there was no possible way that it was a baby. So to reiterate what others have said, it is very possible and highly likely that gas or general digestive rumblings feel the same as movement, but are not.
That makes the kind of sense that isn't.
Please don't act like a huge victim here. You came in with torches blazing ready to argue. So an argument is what you got. You threw the first punch, don't be surprised when you get smacked back.
Girl. You were (rightfully) called a narcissist, not some slur.
ETA - also if you define bullying as not leaving someone alone after they have requested you leave them alone then you are bullying half this darn board.
