Not sure if this has already been created but is anyone else kinda sad that the bump let us down? I really used to enjoy it and being able to just pull up my app and read about all you ladies questions, concerns, and joys! I'm gonna miss it:/

Me! It was such a big part of that beginning stage where I was so happy to be pregnant yet terrified of every symptom or lack thereof....so I'm sad it isn't a happy place anymore.
Whoa, it's so final now, lol-- my account is gone. I can only find one hit for my screen name, and it's someone who quoted me about crying over losing my water bottle, lol.

I'm a little concerned that there won't be any newbies anymore, since how will they even find us. I'd be happy to welcome new ladies (or gentlemen, I suppose) into the club, but I'm a little sad that community can't really grow from here. I don't think, at least.
Does anyone have any way of knowing how big of a hit XO actually took? When I lurk on the newer BMB it looks like no one really cares or is aware of what's up.

If there is away to find out how many members in GBCB might give us an idea.
I'm a little bummed. I'd probably be less bummed if there weren't a lot of changes taking place at work, too. I need some stability in my life, man! I mean, my husband even grew a beard over the past few weeks. What's happening?!
Eh, I'm on the fence of whether to be sad or not. I wasn't as active as I used to be since having LO. It was a great place to interact with everyone. I learned a lot over there, but I can do the same over here. I'm more sad about not seeing familiar faces in other parts over here, but maybe I just haven't found them yet.

If you go to the membership tab at the top you can see a list of all the members. It looks like there are at least 99 pages of approximately 50 per page so that should give a good estimate at least.
They definitely took a big hit, but its unlikely that it will be that much of an impact going forward. All of the people coming on for the first time as they start ttc or get their first bfp have no understanding of how this affected those that were already a part of the community. The new bumpies will eventually take the place of those of us who left.
In a way I am glad for it as I feel like we as a group will become even closer than before as the community will just be closer and tighter with less of a flux of incoming members. However I do think those that go for their next will be at a disadvantage since there will not be robust new bmbs.
On the PB website (can't see this on mobile) there is # listed under the GBCB thumbnail & title. I noticed yesterday it was somewhere in the 1800 range. I assumed this is #of users. Anyone see what I'm talking about? I'm in mobile now so I can't confirm this second.
