I always felt like I had snuck into the cool kids table at TD so it's not a massive loss for me that we moved here. The people visiting every day got to come out of semi lurking and get a fresh start at being regulars. Also, this board overall seems to be way less touchy. I guess what I mean by that is back at TD there were posts I was afraid to start or participate in because I needed to not get super upset over saying something that would hurt someone in the feelings place and get me piled on by a dozen people, which seemed to happen all the time. Here, if someone says something that people don't really agree with its civil and people voice their opinions and move on. Maybe that's not fair to the old TD group, but some parenting decisions are brutally hard, and having a place where you feel safe to ask questions without feeling like you're in the Mean Girls cafeteria is really comforting. I can specifically think of my overnight bibs question. I feel like that really may have gotten me roasted over there, but here I simply found out that generally you gals think it's a bad idea. I've since stopped using them overnight, and ta da. Actually helpful.
Edited because autocorrect thought bibs meant bins
PikoPiko, yeah that is shitty if its the same people arguing against a FB group. My recall of names is so bad, I have a hard time even remembering who took off after that. It was about 10 or so ladies though, right?
So here's the real beef I have with those ended up on the super secret fb group - all the while these were the ladies that bashed others for suggesting a fb group for taking away from the community, then lo and behold they created one. I often thought the people that tore F15 apart wasn't so much TD admins and such, it was the ladies of this community they claimed to be so passionate about. I get that some of the ladies were sticking up for their friends whom they believe were betrayed and/or mistreated by TD admins, and hence the move to this board. Some of us also moved to show our support for our online friends and to follow and remain a part of that community. Well, look at us now. That former community is no more, cos they moved to their super secret fb group. I often thought just what's the point of the move to here to begin with? All of us, I guess the new regs of this board, prob would have been just fine on TD too. This proboard is so buggy, I won't lie, I do miss TD's UI.
I completely agree. While on the TD I was too afraid to make posts or comments because of the responses that some of the regs made and how people would get ganged up on. Don't get me wrong but, some posts were awful and pointless.
I almost did not come over here due to the environment of TD when everything hit the fan but, I did since I was on maternity leave. I'm glad I did. I definitely find this board more useful when having a child than just dealing with being pregnant. I wish I could be more active on the boards but, I'm so busy at work that it's nearly impossible. I can barely read thru the threads during my pumping time.
I'm just getting to reading this thread now but I feel the same as a lot of you ladies. I think it sucks that a bunch of people got over dramatic and ruined TB.
And I think it sucks that a lot of these same people who always bashed others for suggesting a FB group left do do just that (and didn't invite everybody). But honestly, I didn't like most of them anyway, too immature and dramatic.
But what I get most angry about is that some of them lurk here. It feels like spying to me. For example, I feel like they are especially going to look at this thread just bc it has so many comments. I feel like we are a close community and I really care about you guys. Why even come here if you're not going to participate??
Back to thread topic, I've been wondering how Mom2Ms 's daughter has been doing with the baby. If she's recovered from his accident?
She's been doing good. We are finally getting her into some therapy, just incase. She's interacting with him normally. Not afraid to hold him. Sometimes she's a bit too eager. I caught her standing & holding him (over carpet, rather than stone floors where the accident happened), and reminded her about not standing & holding him. She wasn't thrilled with it, however, I think she understands. She does really well with him. She really does. And DS has made a full recovery & has zero signs (that anyone is aware of) that the injury happened. I'm so thankful that we have been able to survive such a scary situation without completely falling apart......

I completely agree... I miss TD. Those FB regs are mean girls

I agree. Sometimes I wonder how their husbands put up with them.

lilyelayne I love the app! But, I haven't tried adding GIFs or anything too technical. It's better now that I can flag the February 15 group for easy access. Going the long way to find it was getting old.
mommadozer, how do you flag the board? I used to have the boards I read flagged, and then they went away and I haven't been able to find a way to do it again.
That is the only issue I've had with the app so far.

When you are on the F15 main screen, make the star yellow in the upper right hand corner. Then it should list under the subscribed section of the Then comes family board.
