God damn, people are rude.

I was under the impression that this site was for pregnant women/moms to give each other advice and support...not a place to judge and criticize each other.
If someone is curious about something, just because you don't agree with what they're asking about, that doesn't mean they're a bad person or that you're any better than them. There's nothing wrong with wanting to hear other people's experiences. Being a first time Mom is scary, and you shouldn't make someone feel like they're stupid just because they don't know everything. Sure, reading books and doing research helps, but talking one on one with someone who's experienced the same thing you have firsthand is a lot more informative, considering there are a lot of details that aren't mentioned in the books.
Don't get me wrong, I believe everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and you have the right to share it, but realize that opinions and facts are two different things. Just because something didn't work for you, doesn't mean it's that way for everyone. And just because you don't agree with a decision someone wants to make, doesn't mean it's the wrong decision.
You also have to realize that every doctor gives their patients different advice. One doctor will tell you something is absolutely not safe for your baby, and another might tell you that it's okay. And just because your doctor told you one thing, and someone else's told them another, doesn't mean their doctor is absolutely wrong. There are so many studies out there that will tell you that everything you do is bad for you/your baby. I say take all the advice you get into consideration, but in the end, everything you do is your decision.
Also, I'm not trying to say that someone doing something really stupid, like smoking crack while they're pregnant or something like that, is okay. That's just plain common sense. I guess I've just noticed people getting really heated over things like induction, or how to naturally jump start their own labor. Yeah, if it's up to you, waiting until at least 40 weeks is obviously the best option. But pregnancy is not always fun. I know, I'm right at the end, and I feel miserable, and I want it to be over so I can finally meet my son. I can understand why someone would be curious about how to get things moving a little quicker. It doesn't mean they're selfish. And these girls telling other girls that they're stupid just because they asked about it...it's just ridiculous.
The bottom line is, worry about your own life and your own decisions. Share your opinion, but don't make someone else feel like smurf just because they wanted some advice from people who should be understanding of what they're going through.

    
go look in the drama corner. you will see 10000000's of these posts.

I'm thinking that Mara should copy and paste this post somewhere so that you and the 5 billion other people who said this don't have to waste your time or anyone else's. For God sake it's a site. If it doesn't suit you then log off. =/

and on that note, this will be the same as always so im going to bed.

Yeah.... why do people find this necessary? It's the smurfing internet, get over it. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and not everyone smurfs rainbows and unicorns. Big deal. You get nice ones and mean ones... Guess what *gasp* that's how life works for you!

Not everyone is going to be nice, bite your tongue and move on. This post changes nothing.

Thank you for this!!! I can sleep now.

oh come on be like the rest ... where's the 'go look after yo kidz' ?

Gotta love the whiners and the ones who get butt hurt when no one agrees with them. OP why you so damn Butt hurt?

This is actually very nicely said. But it is the millionth time I have seen it. Some girls are brutally honest some sweet and some just mean. That's the chance you take when posting in a public forum.

Tl;dr.

There are rude people everywhere in life. Ignore the rude ones, there are plenty of others with good advice on here.

this site isn't for everyone, if you can't handle brutally honest opinions then maybe this site isn't for you, maybe try cafe mom they are all about rainbows and butterfly's

Quoting SKANT:" Am I the only one who didn't read all of it since its same post different newb?"
