I flame my local bump board (I know doing it wrong) It being such a tight knit community it's hard to feel like you are a member of it. Or you become a member and then something gets said you get called out for it and they no longer accept you as part of their community anymore. (I think I'm more just whining but that's what I feel right now)
I also flame myself for always bringing the baby talk to threads.
Ciara-- you're always welcome to bring your bump stuff here. There are more and more Knotties with babies here anyway. I'm scared of TN/TB and haven't been over to that side at all.
I just can't deal with the paranoia on the bump boards, particularly the pregnancy-related ones. People need to stop freaking the eff out over every stupid thing. "OMG, I ate some prosciutto- I probably killed my baby!!!!"
I am so in the minority over there. I eat blue cheese, sushi, lunch meat, soft serve ice cream... whatever I want, really. And I fully plan on having a glass of wine or a beer a few times over the next 6 months.
