Dear lurkers...

MBMcC421

*waves*  Hi!

I have a question for all y'all....

Why do you lurk?

No, seriously.... I'm curious.

Plus it's slow, and we could use the conversation.

Yea I was wondering too.  And are you lurkers Niners, too, or just...random...lurkers?

I don't really lurk, but I don't post a lot during the day because I have to do so on my iPhone which is a PITA.

I don't consider you a lurker.

I guess I'm referring to the "quiet lurkers" who were anonymously represented by a brand new AE last night.

I'm just wondering why you choose to lurk.

And yeah, like MFEO says... are you Niners, or randoms who just find us awesome?

This isn't a trap, I swear.... I don't bite.  Hard.

I know I'm not a lurker at all...but I'll admit there are times where I don't answer a post because everything I would have said was already posted. And sometimes I'll check back to see others opinions, etc....so I definitely help run up the read count.

That's kinda what I'm curious about, too.  I mean, this post has 80ish views, and only 6 responses?  So apparently people are looking at it... are they all us "regulars?"  Something tells me, no...

This.  I've check in a couple times, but I'm obviously not a lurker.   I don't think you're paranoid, or if you are I am a bit too because that's just a weird to me.  I know it happens, but it is kind of creepy!

K-hart

I looked at this thread three times. So, I guess it could be us niners? But I agree with MB and Christina, doesn't seem likely.....

I'll admit, I lurk a bit. Either the post doesn't really apply to me or I feel like I don't have a worthy enough response. So mostly, I just sit on the sideline.

I don't think I count myself as a lurker, just not a super active poster. I can't nest through my work computer and it's annoying to through my iPhone. Usually when I can get on the nest it's at night and I feel like the moment has passed so I don't comment too much. Also, like JA mentioned, if I don't catch a post right away someone else has already said what I would have said.

I would consider myself an almost lurker, lol. Ya, I post here and there, but I don't think anyone knows/remembers my first name so I don't think I'm really a regular. Sometimes, I just want something to read while I'm taking a little break, or I just don't have an opinion, or I don't feel like getting involved in the drama (like yesterday's posts). But, there have been times when I've written out responses, but didn't post them because I was afraid of how people would react to my post. But, I don't know how much of that is actually because of personalities of the regulars or my own social "paranoia". I have really bad social anxiety, and because some of you ladies can be a little confrontational at times, I get nervous about posting.

i know who you are, but i dont know that i ever knew your first name. i do know that your last name isnt Zane and you said people call you Mrs. Zane and you feel dumb correcting them haha.

I'll bite. I'm strictly a lurker now.

I check the board pretty much everyday, just like when I was an avid poster. I don't post anymore after I got my BFP because of a few PMs I got telling me I was insensitive.

So I'd rather just read all the drama than be part of it.

Aw. I appreciate that you thought of me

Pregnancy is amazing. I never thought of myself as a mother, but as uncomfortable as I am, I love every second of it. Lil' man is measuring two weeks ahead, so that's been the only concern, so they may move up my due date

Lizzay - since we're apparently not friends on FB anymore (wtf?), YGPM.

Not quite ready yet. Almost though. We are going to be painting the nursery this weekend and my shower is on the 21st. And thank you, I LOVE the name, H and I had it picked out years ago!

I mostly lurk after work and at night when no one is on. I usually just post during work hours. Sometimes I have things to add to the conversations, but most times I don't

Yup, July 16th. I have another ultrasound on the 19th and they will decide for sure if they are going to move my EDD then

I don't remember what went on, but I don't remember you ever being insensitive! They are concerned with him measuring ahead?  At Weston's 20 week ultrasound, he was measuring 2 weeks ahead and my stomach was measuring 2-3 weeks ahead the whole time.  At my 34 week ultrasound he was measuring 4 weeks ahead.  She was never concerned.  I was induced 3 weeks early only due to developing pre-e.  Do they think the original due date is wrong or something?
