I wasn't going to say anything, but since several people have now PMed me asking me to, I will take one for the team and be the asshole who says "Hey! Stop being so happy for people."
*sigh* puts on sheriff's badge and climbs onto soapbox
As a reminder regarding the stickied birth announcement thread: I know we are all ridiculously excited that the first two birth announcements came in yesterday. Crazy awesome that it has begun! I can't quite wrap my head around it myself. But the general announcement thread is not the place to tag people and post congratulations comments in reply. If you want to tell someone congrats in that location, please simply click on the little heart at the bottom right of their post. They will know what that means. We are probably about to have at least one announcement a week from here on out and very soon it will be multiple postings a day. Calling out each individual mom to give personalized congrats there is going to very rapidly clog up the thread so that the announcements themselves get lost. Hopefully each mom will post her own birth story and personalized thread as soon as she is able, in addition to the quick announcement, and that is the location to go hog wild with tagging, personal congrats messages, comments, glitter, gifs of joy, etc.
Just nipping things in the bud early, before it gets out of control.
