I have been reading my latest treasure mag today and in it is a part about the importance of forum friends and while I know they were refering to the treasures forum it made me realise how much I do value all you ladies and just wanted to say thanks for all your support and words of wisdom.

I love Oh baby ladies too. Not to knock anyone on the treasures ones, but I stopped going the day I mentioned that I was pregnant with Taine. I had said that I had found out I was pregnant when I was already four months gone. One lady said "I can't imagine ever being so unaware of my body that I could do that. It's hard to believe how dense some people can be"
I was livid and never went back.

I sometimes look around the other forums but am generally not a poster... I must say this for OhBaby tho, it is the BEST!! And, it seems to be the only one that never gets B*tchy!!
(And lizzle, a friend of mine from Queenstown had a baby six months ago, she didn't find out about her pregnancy until eight months! She just thought she was getting fat and had a hernia?!)

I am the same.. and try to get on here as much as poss, especially when i have assignments i need to be doing.. i can't work properly if i haven't sat and checked on here first.
I only wish i had stayed with the site after having Paris, I forgot i even had joined until she was about 7 months old i think.. am sure it would have helped me through alot of the hard times.

I love being part of a wee group too, some people come and go from this forum and thats cool, they obviously get the info they need but i love that we have the 'regulars' who are here all the time and know so much about each other. Not dissing treasures but i was on there for a while ages ago but found it to big and hard to keep up with so now just come here for my daily gossip sessions!

I also really enjoy being part of Oh Baby... when something happens at home, Nat always says "So have you told everyone on Oh Baby yet?"

Hubby always has me on about being on here all night. He is normally at work but has been on dayshift since Addison was born and I dont think he realised how much Im on the computer. He suggested we get rid of broadband the other day to save some money and I jsut about cried! Needless to say we are NOT getting rid of broadband

I love this site for the same reason as someone else mentioned we jsut chat and have fun most of the other's gets so bitchy. Plus ohbaby is just so much nicer looking. what I love is how small the world is I think there is now 3 people that I have found on here that in some way have had a connection with at some point. It is weird.
I feel like I have a whole world of friend's.
On the hubby thing ohbaby has got me is a fair bit of trouble see hubby is a computer freak and I am alway's giving him a hard time about howw much time he spend's on it course what he does not know is just how much each day I am on here.

hehe, my partner just thinks i'm weird talking to a bunch of people i dont know. but i tell you, it keeps me sane. where i live i'm quite isolated coz he has the car and we live a bit out of town so when i'm on here i feel like i'm talking to friends.
