Re: **Read First** Board Organization

  • @offtoneverland I think it's a great idea to leave the ticker changes unassigned. I think including VBAC in the CS thread is fine since the two are so interwoven. I'll happily do that check in on Sundays.

  • Y’all good if I post a new questions thread a day early? Seems like we are getting a lot of random question threads and I’m wondering if it’s cause we haven’t had a recent one.

  • Do it @pink_polkadots (from me at least).  There's definitely a spike in random question threads, although who knows if it will actually help.  There's a clearly labeled intro thread stickied to the top and I've seen a few stand alone intros the last few days.  
  • @lifesabeach85 I would like one of those!

  • @lifesabeach85 That’s a great idea
  • What does everyone think about having a weekly mental health check in thread? It seems like a lot of us are dealing with stress and anxiety to varying degrees. It might be nice to have a specific thread where we can share our concerns and stresses, the strategies we find useful for coping, and receive support from each other.
    How's Thursday? Trying to spread out some of the threads evenly. Or we could just do it on Monday if that's easier for people to remember.

  • Thursday sounds good to me, personally. I like the idea of spreading them out so there’s something to look forward to :)
  • I can't remember where it was discussed, but I added a financial preparation thread under the monthly section. I figured it probably didn't need to be a weekly thread. Let me know if you would like it done another way.

    **PSA**: I have 1 day left to edit this thread. Any requests/suggestions/changes?

  • Should "what my pregnant self is eating" be a monthly thread? I was lurking on Oct and they have their food one as a monthly post.

  • Totally forgot to do the TTGP check in last week.  Do we want to switch it to monthly since there's so few TTGP grads in this group?

  • @lurvleybunchococonuts I think monthly would be perfect. I stalk y'all anyways ;)

  • I can't edit the thread anymore, but it makes sense to do those threads monthly instead of weekly. I'm cool with that!
    @lurvleybunchococonuts It makes me sad that there's so few TTGP grads here. :'(  :'(

  • Hello! Would a "currently reading" thread be ok? Looking to post books in general but also pregnancy/childbirth books.

  • @the-lo I would be into that 


  • Just want to make sure I'm not stepping on anyone's toes first.

  • Also, would love to start a MOC (moms of color) thread to share cultural things, names, and books for baby <3

  • Again, as stated MULTIPLE times, in multiple threads: if you want to start a thread than start one.  Maybe first ask yourself, "is this a topic that would benefit more than simply myself"? If yes than ask yourself, "is this a topic that easily and clearly fits into a preexisting thread"?  If no, than post a thread.  If yes, than post your comment there.  If you start a thread and someone suggests "hey, that would've gone under xyz" than say "oops, my bad" add your comment to the appropriate thread, and get over it.  You're making this into way bigger of a thing than is necessary.

  • I have a stupid question.  Is there a time when you're supposed to use the spoiler option?  I guess I don't understand what it's for?  Thanks!

    @offtoneverland I'd love to get the Wednesday Plus-Size Mom Check-In going, if that is okay with you and @CopperBoom86!  I am going to go ahead and post today's since it's mid-day EST (although I am PST) and if there is an issue please let me know. <3

  • @wannaflickone can we do a STM check in soon? I could (selfishly) use some advice...

    This!
  • Sorry! Missed this call out! Yes, I'll start one today. Thanks @lifesabeach85

    Also, for my clarification, we should use a spoiler on HDBD thread? Is it mainly to keep load time better? I wasn't necessarily sure I understood why it was being used there. Thanks!
    Pregnancy Ticker

  • @wannaflickone You don't have to use spoilers on the HDBD thread, but on mobile, the app crashes when there are too many pictures in a thread, so it's much easier for mobile users if the pics are in a spoiler.
