just curious..

Does anyone actually read the app for its intended purpose? The forums to me are for when I am bored. I like the info the app gives you week by week. Makes it easy to talk with my daughter about new baby.  Also what is the point is splitting into age groups no one seems to care. Also maybe the app should have a early teen group. Its super annoying on a 25-34group to figure out the poster is 15. Don't mind helping with experience but a group of own peers maybe a great option. Also with the invention of google i would think that would be what you dp first before asking a billion people. Just my opinion. Not bashing or anything. Have gotten some great advice from some nice people. Just thoughts at 6am lol. Also congrats to all new moms and to all preggos. Have a great day.

Thats true. It just is mind boggling when someone in this age range asks if they should go to hospital when contractions are 3-4min apart for last hour. In my head im like well yeah. Not trying to be rude but makes me a bit sad for them that they don't know or don't have some one close to say go. I uaually call my doc or on call nurse if i am unsure and need a quick answer. Most hospitals have a nurse help line as well. I line the baby name questions, Or suggestions. Always interesting to see names folks ib diff areas or even countries come up with.

What I noticed is googling it brings up more forums more often that not.

I love the weekly updates. :) I'm a bit ocd about knowing what's going on with my baby (it keeps me from stressing).
The forum is just a time killer for when I'm bored.

True. I am same way. Sometimes to me it seems serious I would rather talk to an on call nurse then wait on here. Every pregnancy is diff. Thanks for answering. Just random thoughts.

Sometimes I think the same thing. I mean I'm happy to see all the posts and be able to interact but some things can be googled or asked at a doctors visit. And some of them at reading I think call your doctor right away or an er! But hey its good to have people to talk to :)
