I thought last night there was a way to request to join. Is there a link or anything @okayestmom12? I see what I assume is the PG listed, but I can’t click on it or request to join.
@PurplePoppy424 it's being super buggy, the button shows up when I click on the notification from the notifications button rather than on messages - but it won't let me request to join, when I try to an error box comes up that says "duplicate message" with a bunch of code. I'm going to try again later...
Okay. I'm on a computer for the first time in I can't even tell you how long. If you received an invite, you can't request to join the group. It will give you the duplicate error every single time. However, if you click on the general groups section, it will finally show you the invites page. I'm FINALLY in the group. LOL Leave it to The Bump to make something like this as difficult as humanly possible. Good grief.
Ok I’m in! Man that was more difficult than it should have been. Definitely recommend doing it on the desktop version. Thanks @PurplePoppy424 for the guidance!
Wow, TB does NOT want me to be part of this. I have no messages at all, and I've checked both my app and desktop version. If I go and try to find the group manually, both the app and desktop version freeze when I click on it. Incredible. I'll try again tomorrow.

I would love to join the PG. I can see but can't seem to join... Maybe I'm bump challenged but all I can see if my old S15 PG. Can I get an invite, I'll keep trying too.

Yes..I am quoting myself. I figured it out and requested to join!
Just to confirm what everyone's said, I got in, but it was incredibly buggy. When I followed @okayestmom12's instructions I couldn't get the "Join this Group" button to show up, and the site wouldn't let me click on the group itself, but when I went to the "View All Groups" page (https://forums.thebump.com/groups) from there it let me click on February 2019 Moms and from there it let me request to join the group. I think you basically just have to retry/reload the same thing several different ways and eventually the buggy website gods smile on you ugh.
Thanks for the invite! But there was nothing in it for me to click on to join. I tried going to the actual site on my phone but it keeps rerouting me back to the app, from which I cannot get the "join this group" button. Omg this is so stupid. Hoping to get on my surface soon (tonight) to try that.
BTW, has anyone checked out the names for the other groups? I think some people created a group instead of a post, since they're super specific. Current favorite: the New To This group. Here's the screen cap:

Alright. If you guys go to Groups... and put February 2019 Moms into the search bar... it should bring up the list of groups that includes ours.
Try and click “Join”. I have the option to join all the other listed groups so maybe this will work...

ETA found the group in new groups but the link doesn't work. Can try not on mobile tonight.
PS- thanks for doing all this work for the PG!
I presume this is because of my work firewalls, which are intense.
