Yeah I agree too, and then again I think there are some people that just post for the sake of it also. But thats just my opinion too.  Hope you all have a great evening.------------- http://lilypie.com">

I think also that a heck of alot of the topics coming up are ones that have been discussed a few hundred times before by some of us oldies, lolol.. so they tend to die off pretty quick cos we either refer the newbies back to the old post or we just don't bother to post any solutions.. mean i know, but mums get lazy and tired too. te he he.. have noticed that it's quiet on here though - and the more people we get on here the quiter it is. I tend to just find the interesting posts (by being drawn in by the titles..) if i have time to spare i will look in on others.. and nearly always find i am missing the good conversations. lol ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

I'm the same, I'll often look at the interesting sounding topics when I'm having a quick look in and only look at the others when I'm bumming around and not doing stuff I probably should be....like work. ahem.  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| yeah I agree about the due whatever month thing, I feel like Im missing lots of stuff cos i dont go into those threads really. Also I guess as we are all having babies at the moment its a case of finding time to get back into it, give it a few weeks and I recon more people will be back. |

I'm sorta glad this place has quietened down. With mega-posters like Jax not posting as much, means that it doesn't take me 4 hours just to catch up on posts!!! hehe
Just curious, how many of you use the "Active Topics" button at the top to see which threads have been posted in since last log in??? |

I will confess that it took me aaaaaaages to work out to use that button. Just wanted reassurance that I wasn't the only idiot. Seems like I might be tho

Actually it took me a while to figure it out too but must remember to look at the Oh Baby Forums more often in case I have missed something for a few days but not likely ha ha as I seem to be on here very regularly!  ------------- Sebastien 2 years old Olivier 3 3/4 years old |

Hmm...My opinion..
Well I guess we cant all have lots to say all the time. A lot of us do work so probably dont have a lot of time to think about what we would like to bring up &..talk about (unlike you lucky ones at home!!!). I only come on here and there at work and sometimes at home. A lot of the topics do come up a few times...I do think of lots of things to talk about but a lot of it is not really that interesting!!! Just random thoughts! -------------

AndI think it just goes through stages where people have lots of queries and sometimes all is sweet and there is just not much happening.
I find there is normally plenty on here to keep me entertained though! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Depending on what type of browser you use to surf the internet, some of them have a setting / function that you can get to remember passwords and logins for you, even if the website itself doesn't have it. ------------- Jacquie - Mama to Erin, 13.07.06 - Chief Cat Chaser & Marmite Sammie Eater

Well I guess I just learnt something new, I will admit I'd never noticed the Active Topics function on here
I usually look at this site through a small reduced window at work so that everyone else can't see what I'm looking at otherwise I'd never hear the end of it! |
