seriously?!

Whenever I post legitimate questions/concerns or anything actually having to do with real opinion, nobody (or like 2 people) responds.  But watch someone post something about baby daddy drama, what fruit size your baby is or even the dude that talked about how he got a ******** at the massage parlor gets responses... maybe I should start spelling stuff all wrong and improperly and I'll get some feedback? Is 80% of this app just ghetto? Wtf lol

I agree to a certain extent. Some of the topics in this app doesn't meake any sense. However, most of us don't respond because we don't know or never had an experience! I'm like most women on here who ONLY respond if I can be helpful! However, if your question is that important ask your doctor or midwife. (especially if your not getting a response) As far as "ghetto", I've seen worse. I'm not offended by the word but things we all see in this app is not nearly as ghetto as what most of us have seen in our surroundings! As far as baby daddies most of us are still in relationships/married to our child(ren) father. As for those who keep our private lives private don't post it on an app! Some women are just looking for answers but when I comes to our significant others, I think we ALL shouldn't post any of it on an app! (thats just my opinion though)

Hahaha its so true. I also think that all the time.

But its unfortunate that some people obviously don't have real people to support or advise them so they have to do it in a forum. That's sad.

Maybe if it is a true medical question it should be answered by a doctor. It is great to relate and get as much info about it from others but to get an answer it should be by your doctor. Venting d drama are just easier because someone's answer wont physically harm the baby or you.  It is just the ability to get point of views and support.

I was with you up until the fruit size and ghetto...I'm a ftm and every Wednesday I log in too see what fruit size my lil man is that week,  it gets me excited for when I go to the grocery to pick up the fruit and show my husband. ...I personally have no baby daddy issues as I live with my husband  who is supportive.. but I don't think having baby daddy drama makes u ghetto or even misspelling a couple words...auto correct messes up my posts a lot of times and most times I just don't feel like going back and correcting it

I agree. This app is full of drama. I posted a question a few days ago, and no responses. Bumped it back to the top again. Still not one person responded. I'm personally looking at different apps because questions dont get answered here. If you post drama or post about having sex asking if you could be pregnant because your boobs are sore the NEXT DAY... you'll get responses from anyone and everyone on this darn app.

If I don't understand a post I will not respond,if I have no experience with the question posted I will not respond. Most women on the app had a man help her conceive so it is something most can relate to. People are excited  that they have made it to another week and want to share their fruit, I know I'm excited. People post what they know we are only truly experts of our own bodies. So if someone doesn't respond to your post its possible that  it was pushed down by new post or that no one had an answer. Every pregnancy is different.

I agree that people shouldn't post about drama but I also think that's what your doing.You definitely just put yourself in the same category as the "ghetto" people your complaining about, seeing as you seem to think of yourself so highly that you can't even make a simple grammar mistake that's kind of sad.. You are bored and looking for attention just like half these other women, if you have a serious question call your doctor or midwife. This is a support group these people don't have all the answers, it's more for sharing!

I only respond to post that i can relate to. Or i have experienced or some knowledge in. If i dont think i can offer any good assistance i don't respond. Also try different topics.  Something that will draw people to click on ur post.

It is annoying but you can skip over those. I have the same problem where I don't get many answers on some serious questions. But I am highly a intelligent woman so I try and answer others the best I can.  Some I have no answers for as this is my first pregnancy and I'm 20 weeks.

I also get very annoyed when some people use lazy Grammer.  But it is what it is. Most people are on their phones using this app so it can become tedious answering questions on the mini keyboard with auto correct changing everything.

I try to answer peoples questions but This whole app is based on peoples personal experiences.. So if we haven't experienced it then it's hard to comment on it. So if you are really concerned I would ask your doctor because they would have the best advice.

But you know what it is good to have people who you can vent to even if it is personal and not exactly pregnancy related

I have to say... It really seems that way. I don't bother reading the silly drama. I just read the ones that are real questions and only respond if I may be of some help.
