I just requested through the app. I had to go to groups and then "all popular groups" and scroll through some pages till I found the January 19 PG group (for me it was on page 5) It let me click on it and request from there hopefully that works
@AshVA I think it leads to a “denial” like a withdrawal is a denial for some time period... no idea how long but I will withdraw my invite again.
Yep, the button is grayed out again. Let's leave it for now and see if that changes in the next day or so.
In my head, this whole invite/ request for admission back and forth is like when someone tries to open a car door at the same time the person inside tries to unlock it, and neither are successful, but they keep trying again and again.
+1 to this. I’ve tried multiple times. I thought I forgot how to internet. Grateful to know it isn’t just me. Once we figure it out I would love to join. I’ll keep trying
With as many issues as they have, you would think they would hire some quality developers to work some of this out. It's been years now.
Way back when, they used a third party to host and maintain their site and thus databases. I suspect they go with the cheapest option but have very little hands on with their own coding and such. It may have changed but I remember the discussion before they did the giant overhaul of the forums like.....6 or 7 years ago?
I think it was when they changed all of the TOU and there was a massive exodus. It was so incredibly different here 8+ years ago when I joined. My July 13 board was so active and went all went private to proboards and Facebook when TB went crazy. That was 2014 so it's weird for me seeing it so bad. It wasn't this bad at all back then. All of the boards were really active. So many people posted in so many places.
Raise your hand if you have ever felt personally victimized by The Bump
Edit: werked for me too yayaaaaa but this gif still applies to life so I'm leaving it SNS!

IUI #4: April 15/16, 2018 - BFP!! EDD: Jan 7, 2019
I think I was able to click join through the app... but I had to search through all groups before I could click on the link to the group (it was on of 3 for me)
I probably won’t follow you guys to a private group, as I can’t guarantee I’d post as much as you’d like due to anxiety issues around pregnancy and the new baby that often make it hard for me to share, and I can see how that’d be annoying (I already barely post). I’ll stick around here for the most part, though. Good luck with your PG!
Welp i'm still here... I can't get into the private group. I'm having technical issues and haven't heard back from the bump admin. I'm hoping Monday admin will get back to me
@ms_stevens87 i think most of us will do both groups or at least that's how it worked in my old BMB until after baby's were born...then people stuck to their smaller groups
@AshVA@ladystout08 and @galactickates I called and emailed TB about it. Yes I did leave a voicemail spelling out your bump screennames. It was special.
No luck on desktop today- shows that @galactickates was invited w no response and no pending requests to join as of right now.
