tired of the dishonest people!

There are too many dishonest people on here constantly changing their stories and how far along... It's disturbing! I want to help people and get help when I need it I don't want to be lied to or led to believe something and be made a joke in the end.

@3mama2014, I figured you weren't specifically addressing me because it is other post that has a lot of discrepancies. Just in case you happened to come across one of my previous questions and/or stating then I was one month further along than I thought. Truth be told, I am still so confused, but I am letting it go since we are having a healthy and happy baby boy! :) This is our first and we are extremely excited and blessed. I was so happy when my husband downloaded this app for me. Like others said, I'm honest and expect and appreciate the same in return. I want help and support from fellow mommies who has already experienced motherhood and whenever I'm able to answer questions and give advice I love doing so. I just want all of us to help each other.
Good luck and best wishes ladies!

I saw that meth one & thought the same thing! I don't judge anyone, but it was hard to not keep an open mind about her substance abuse when she was half way through her pregnancy. Some people make me so so so angry. Maybe its me, maybe its the hormones, but honestly! There's people who cannot have babies at all and the people that make up pregnancies etc should be the ones that cannot reproduct!

I read a question from one mom and was floored! She said her "friend" used meth for three months and was freaking out asking if they would test the placenta and take the baby away. Riiiiiiiight.......your "friend". God I wish police could track this s#! % down and give those poor babies a good family. Another mom was talking about taking 80 mg of oxycotin while being 6 weeks and asking if the baby would live.....ARE YOU FRICKIN KIDDING ME?! Ok.....prego rant over. :P

3mama you have a right to your opinion... and your right.... some people post crap to merely get the attention... personally, I dont have the time or energy to make up random stories... I have my one experience with child birth and am on my 2nd pregnancy. 1st pregnancy was a breeze and this one... not so much :(

I didn't say anything to hurt anyone was more hoping to get people that may be exaggerating a bit to realize we are all here for our pregnancies and to have support.

Yea I just noticed my phone didn't finish typing what my point was lol, I used that example to show that they may not be dishonest just helping others. I don't think she meant to confuse anyone just wanted to help her friends. I'm just saying we don't always know the situation so its not for us to judge what is dishonest or not.

I wasnt saying it to the people that are measuring bigger our have due dates that change I was meaning more of the stories that don't add Up or asking things over and over again or that 6 month 1 month thing. I'm not trying to insult anyone I know pregnancy has a tendency to make us forget I'm just saying some things don't add Up.

I've only seen 1 person that is like that. She was 6 months then the next day she was 4 weeks then she got a neg test. When I tried asking her multiple times what was true she switched forums and eventually didn't get back on for a few days. Finally she got back on and more people asked her again what was true and she said she had friends she was asking questions for

I didn't notice any dishonesty on here. I must not have caught on to that yet. I hope that people aren't taking advantage of this app in that way. I came on here completly honest and expect the same in return. I want to share my experiences and advice that othees may have to offer me. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm right there with the others. I was going by two due dates: the ultrasound gave me a month later than my LMP. So it wasn't until last week I decided to just go by the ultrasound tech and for us to be prepared for the earlier due date, just in case.

I havent noticed that kinda thing. My doctor and I differ by 4 days, oh well.
My last pregnancy ,I hung out on the pregnancy forum of yahoo answers. I met a girl who told me she had 1 kid and was expecting twins. As time went on I wasnt sure she was telling the truth. She had all these crazy stories about adopting babies,changing her own kids names..horrendous car crashes that orphaned her husbands friends kid so thet adopted her...
Idk some people just need attention and to feel important. Its kinda sad :(

I don't think it's people being dishonest, in my case anyways, I did the math in my head, and I thought it was right. I was two weeks ahead of what I really was. Made me kinda sad. Lol
