thanks pregly. NOT.

edited March 2011 in About App & Forum
Im deleting this app for the fact of favoritism. I try to help best i can. People judge and criticise people. All about the drama on here. Meant to be grown ups not acting like we are in high school. I ask for help and rarely even get one response. Im taking my support and questions elsewhere. Had enough. Enjoyed it while it lasted but time to move on.

  • I was thinking the same but u have ya good pregly days and bad ... I noticed wen I post dumb stuff for fun eri body hop on but wen I'm serious and need advice no ones around.... I keep the app thigh for tips and stuff n I gave the forumn a little rest for a while
  • Its meant to be here for support. Only seems to be about the things that have NOTHING to do with pregnancy or babies at all. But oh well. As i said ill get support elsewhere. @Mama_Kat
  • @Neek maybe ill keep an eye on the hone page. Like tips and my weekly status. But not the forum
  • @Emmalouise i see the same going on . Its like only certain people who post Posts get the response because they post so much on here . I, Myself, Don't really get involved with Pregly people because of that . Its like you can be so hurt and need some serious advice while the ones with the Maury Drama are the ones who get all the shine. Its crazy .

  • @Color_pink0923 just had enough. I was really worried about my 25week appointment. Not ONE person helped. Just day in day out all about the drama!
  • @Emmalouise Yess its like that . OMGUHHH . its like where are the support for the lonely single moms who are scared. All we get is , "its okay, Everything will be fine" but if someone's husband is cheating everyone go in depth about their solution . Its sooo crazy . Im not saying anything bad about those woman who husbands are cheating but if he constantly cheats then thats ur sign to leave. Common sense will tell u that , but for other woman who are emotionally torn its like " ohh u will be fine" "its okay" . Can anyone relate to us ??
  • @supermommy i also met a few. I have there Facebook so will keep in contact that way!
  • I think a part of it has to do with a lot of the girls having no idea what is going on with their body let alone anyone else. I read my baby book, that's the only reason I even know anything about all of this but im still clueless. This place seems to be more of a social I'm excited about the baby kind of place, rather than a knowledgeable forum. So many very young and first time moms, its really hard to get good information out of teens still in the all about my life and my pain and all I can say for your pain is I'm sorry, that sucks, phase if life.
  • I never get responses, but i still love my pregly... I was one of the 1st mommies using pregly. I cant leave
  • I felt the same way! But I've noticed u gotta look for a topic since NOBODY barely uses the topic category. So u see the newest or most comments. I go in each category n look so I can help anyone. Ill pick a post with no or few replys. Then I will have the fun n do nothing posts.
  • @Color_pink0923 when i try tp help i go into as such detail as possible. People that have had miscarriages. I help as i have been there. People ttc been there too. It does just remind me of highschool. See now i don't sugar coat anything. I.would hate to be a single mum. Would be hard and feel alone unsupportive. If someone cheats why tell the world? I would be ashamed and he would be gone before he had the chance to blink!
  • @sunshinelove sometimes ill Google things to help.. I always try and post on ones with few replys.
    @betty grown attached then lol.
    @mommyto1soontob2 i look in the catorgie section too! Find it easier to help findings ones i can help
    bed time for Me ladies its now 12:42am in the UK. Will try reply soon x
  • @Emmalouise I get where you coming from .

    @sunshinelove i think a lot of these young or teenage moms come to pregly because a lot of woman on here are more older. They need encouraging words where they can't get them anywhere else. That's how i seen it when i first got here . I needed some older wiser woman to give me some advice but as i was reading other Teenage and young moms posts they were being criticized for being so young with a child . So thats where the maturity of the older woman come in to put all that other judgmental stuff aside and just encourage the younger woman to do their best . But if someone was to come on here and say they got an abortion , everyone would be down their throat . You know . I hope u see where im coming from because im a young mom , 20 , with my first child. All i wanted was some encouraging strong words from a strong mother herself. That's all .
  • @Color_pink0923 that's what I'm saying! I'll be 20 on the 4th but what I've noticed, there aren't very many mom on here over 25 teen pregnancy is literally the majority of the forum now days (from my noticing) and is really hard to find actual advice from more than one or two older women who actually know what they ate doing. And I know, I suggested adoption to a very young girl and almost had my eyes gouged out with a spoon... I can only imagine if someone posted about abortion, even if they get raped and.didn't want that memory it something. it would start a riot.
  • @sunshinelove Yes . I think the older ladies, Because i seen some say they were 30 , 39 , 26, 27, and older talking on here when someone had a post that asked how old were some of the moms here & majority were older from what i read. So where are those LADIES ??? i hope they come around soon or else this forum will be destroyed by immaturity
  • I'm 26 on 3rd pregnancy and always try to help give support when I can! I often though skip a thread if someone else answers it the same way I would. Also repeat questions I sometimes pass by. But always here for support for anyone. Been through a lot in life and I'm an open book :)
  • blah I know! I hope this forum doesn't go down hill cuz of that. I wish to see some more older and helpful moms on here! I don't have all that many questions but I hope the ones I do get some answers and other ladies get help from it! I'll do my best to help others compassionately.
  • All the older moms went to another forum. I added the app and there's a whole category named welcome pregly women
  • I've posted some topics to not have many responses but I'm not taking it personally..topics fly by in here and I have no idea where even mine went.. I don't think people are intentionally ignoring anyone...the socalled favorites are just people that post a lot...I try and responed to threads that I can help with or relate too. Hugs.

  • First off Im crying cause I got categorised as an old mom(30) lol and jk!
    Secondly, I THINK that sometimes some topics are too risque for me, so I dont answer, or someone has already given the answer I would have given. I wont comment on abortion topics because I am a christian and dont believe there is ever a reason other than health reasons and by that I mean chance of death for mom...and if I dont answer then I wont cause an argument and I also dont want to sound judgemental. I gave an opinion and advice earlier today as a mom of 3, aunt of 7, and daycare provider with over 10 years experience and got criticised for my advice. Soooo I think sometimes we get scared to give advice.
    That said I like pregly...didnt have this kind of support with my other 3 & its a great place I can talk about my baby and pregnancy all I want without annoying my non preg friends and hubby:)
  • I'm 27 5th pregnancy third healthy baby, 1 ectopic pregnancy and 1 miscarriage. 2 little girls and recently was told 85% sure this baby too is a girl. I'm single, educated, unemployed and making ends meet By the graces of God. I'm always here if anyone wants to talk but I rarely comment BC I get reported for being blunt.

  • @Emmalouise the topic heading really has alot to do with it I think. If you write something eye catching someone will respond. I'm not pregnant yet but I think this is an awesome forum. I've recommended it to alot of girlfriends! There are so many subjects that get brought up and it helps me out! So its to bad that you didn't have luck
  • Yupp. Same problem. And look at how many comments you got from saying goodbye to pregly. Its like people only wanna see/hear the drama and wanna know why ur leaving pregly so they comment. Ya know?
  • I am a very calm cool person that just runs with the flow on the river of life :) unfortunately pregnancy tests my way of life and I have snapped and said things that I later realized were stupid and out of line for example I went on a 20min rant about the horrible looking mustache my boyfriend (as well as many other service members) grew for the month of March ( ask on of them why they grew it, I'm not getting back into it). Who knows why I was so passionate about this mustache... I'd say it was hormones And not knowing necessarily how to control them because this is my first pregnancy and I don't know what the hell is going on the point I'm.trying to make here is that there are 10000 members on this apparently and 85% of them are pregnant that I'd a lot of hormones in one area... something hurtfull is bound to be said... as for the young mothers comments I am only 20 and I see myself as pretty intelligent... yes I do fit your typical "teen mom" stereotype but my boyfriend/ hero And I are very happy I never saw myself as the married with children type but when you have unsafe sex you cannot say it is a surprise buy when a doctor tells both of you that neither one of you will ever be able to have children it does come as a very exciting surprise we will just work on the married part later... I hope this puts things into perspective for some a little better
    sincerely,
    your local tension breaker
