Communities question

[jennyinheaven]

35 + to me meant you were over 35 years of age, yet I see younger woman who are 35+ weeks pregnant using this board as well, not that I care who posts just curious if I interpreted the communities incorrectly

I am about 5 wks pregnant now and really couldnt be more excited. But I haven't had any symptoms besides frequent urination. Is that normal? I kinda wish I had other symptoms cuz it makes the pregnancy feel more real. Should I be worried?

Ops hahaha I always thought it was ur pregnancy weeks and always wonderd why 9 weeks or over 25 were in here. Lol I was always excited thinking yay im gona be in a different group soon. What an I.d.i.o.t

Ooopppsss I along with some others thought it meant 35 weeks!!! Didn't know they where referring to age.. I think thats the common miss conception here.. Lol

I'm 27 and i knew it referred to age but I've always flocked to older people...even before babies:-)

Hi, folks,

The title does refer to age, because each age group tends to have concerns/interests that are a little different from the others.  Anyone's allowed to post in any of the groups, though, regardless of their age.    Hope this helps!

I think it does refer to age but I visit them all lol. Sometimes out of boredom or sometimes i think i clicked on one group but must have hit the other. I thought i had hit the 24-34 group until I started scrolling through the topics lol.

Also, I'm 28 years old and I usually stick to the 25-34 forum. But occasionally I'll skip around. If I keep seeing the same posts over n over, or NO posts for a while, I'll skip around to another forum. I think that's why others do as well. Boredom or just curiosity.

I never thought of that! I've assumed this whole time it was referring to how many "weeks" pregnant you are. Made me wonder why so many women 4-6 weeks pregnant were posting on the 25-34 pregnancy forum. It never bothered me. I was just always curious about that. But it referring to AGE does make more sense! :/ Wow I feel like an airhead haha

[sweethappiness75]

Obviously that posted to the wrong thread! Haha Oops

I am not as far along as you ladies but I did have some dizziness from weeks 8 - 10. My doctor told me it could be a few different things but the culprit was more than likely fluid shift. My SIL had some and her doctor said it could be spells of low blood pressure.

I thought the same thing I will be 35 November 30 however I agree totally with the previous comment...

It does refer to age, but I also think some of the younger mums to be go to the older forums to get answers and more encouragement. As I've seen a few things on the younger aged forums that have been quite nasty in the past.
