Hey everybody- as more of us show up, how do we want see this develop?
Do we want a due date cohort weekly check in? A daily check in for everyone? Previous boards do it both ways.
Do we want to have the same person post the same thread every week, or do we want to be more fluid?
Also- we should talk about loss - do we want to request loss moms who want to say goodbye do it in one TW thread? Or do we want to have a one of post for each (if that’s what our friends leaving us want?)
any suggestions? Thoughts?
Re: Board organization discussion
as far as loss goes, I have no preference.
I liked the ask a 2nd time mom thread too!
For loss, I think it should be an option either way. Some people would probably prefer a quieter TW'd thread. But if someone wants to do a separate post I think they should be allowed to- one of the hard things about it, especially early, is how few people know it even happened. Putting it as a separate post that more will see and be able to support might be helpful for some.
I’m fine with anyone starting threads. I personally would love to see a PGAL thread if there isn’t one. As far as a loss thread I like @kat11223344 idea of having one if people want but I’m fine with others creating their own if they would like.
I haven't seen boards where there's a weekly check-in for everyone but I'd be open to that too!
So far it looks like -
Weekly symptoms
Weekly randoms
Weekly or daily check-in TBD
TW loss thread (I also like the idea that people should be able to post a separate thread as well as having this)
Ask a 2nd+ Time Mom (seems like we can keep using the one already created, or if it gets long and someone wants to start a new one at the beginning of a month that could work)
PGAL
Deals/Steals/Freebies
Also makes sense to do a new Doctor Appt thread at the beginning of each month I think.
And of course fun threads as we think of them like random GTKY, FFFC, Fit Friyay, WTF Wednesday - some of which have already been started.
