Private Group Vetting Thread

Lisa3379 · December 2021

Ok guys, it looks like moving to a private Facebook group before babies are born is the winning option, and since some of us are now 4 weeks out from our due date, babies are going to start coming in probably the next couple of weeks! I've perused other boards and it seems like the way to vet regular posters is to have everyone post here, and then give a "love it" to those names that you recognize as a regular contributor. This is a somewhat small group, so what, if a poster gets 4 "love its" then I'll PM that person, get their email address, and then invite them to a private Facebook group? Let me know if this sounds reasonable or not. I'll try to get the private group going this week... unless someone else wants to do it? Haha. If anyone else is interested in being the moderator, that's perfectly cool with me.

Is love to come over to a private group!
I know I disappeared for a while though so totally understand if not.

@Lisa3379 if you need a co-moderator I’m happy to help

Lisa3379 · December 2021

@MrsJessS Awesome, thanks! And even though you were MIA for a bit, you're still a regular poster from pretty much the start to me!

I'd love a Facebook group!
Sorry- i think I'm too squirrel-brained to help with moderation!

I can’t believe it’s almost baby time! 😳 The longest and fastest year of my life.

Much better idea than my previous Birth month boards. Where you had to.semd a pic of today's date next to your bump with a fill3 body shot. As previously mentioned. I'm very self conscious about my size. Both inside and outside of pregnancy.

Thanks for organizing! I'd love to join a private group. Hard to believe I'm down to less than 30days before baby girl is here!

rachel0428 · December 2021

Yes thanks so much for initiating this! Sounds reasonable to me.

I know I’m a little sporadic w posting but would love to join. Can’t believe we’re already in the home stretch!

elksamm · December 2021

Thanks for organizing @Lisa3379 Can’t believe we’re so close! @kcf19 couldn’t agree more - longest and shorter year for sure!

shinyobjects · December 2021

Thanks for organizing @Lisa3379! I’d love to be a part of the group, but I know I’ve been MIA for a lot of the journey. But I hope you’ll have me! I can’t believe we’re so close!
eta: @AshleyGemini24 that sounds awful!

GracieL79 · December 2021

I’d love to join too and would feel way more comfortable sharing pics on a private page. I’m haven’t been super active so I understand if I’m not, but I plan on being more active now that I’m on maternity leave. Thanks for organizing! @Lisa3379

travistori · December 2021

I would love to join! Busyness of two toddlers makes it difficult to respond to everything, but I have been active here and there, and think a Facebook group would be way easier. I use my phone so the bump app makes it less user friendly to engage than a FB group would!

travistori · December 2021

Also, I can’t believe we are getting so close 🤯

pedsoncrn461 · December 2021

I may have had a minor panic attack earlier this week when I realized I'm less than 4 weeks from baby time

Lisa3379 · December 2021

Check your PMs, everyone!

rachel0428 · December 2021

This is a silly question but where do we check PM’s w this app? Lol

rachel0428 · December 2021

Nevermind, I think I found it. 😊

Where did you find it? 🤦🏽‍♀️

kcf19 · December 2021

I found it, tiny button!

alexxajams · December 2021

I cant find it on mine

Lisa3379 · December 2021

@alexxajams Look at the top of this thread - it’s the little inbox icon (2nd from left).

alexxajams · December 2021

😭 I don't have that. Would it be from the computer or the phone app?

shinyobjects · December 2021

@alexxajams that’s on the computer. On the phone app it looks like this.

alexxajams · December 2021

😅 I got it together guys. Stupid brain

Browder5 · December 2021

FB would definitely make it much easier to post and stay active. I too am using the bump app and it’s not as user friendly for a working mom of 4. I may not always get to post but I’m constantly checking everyone’s posts. Just super busy because my kids are in every sport available which keeps us on the go in addition to work and home life.

firewife_911 · December 2021

WAIT! Did we start an FB Page?! I feel like I’m missing something lol

bflibump · December 2021

Hi! I might be the only one who is not on social media, but it was nice connecting here and I agree @kcf19 definitely flew by! 6 weeks left to go for me! That’s if she doesn’t debut sooner 😉
