I've been on Hellobee since 2015 but mostly lurked until I got pregnant with DS2 in 2017. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839905 Wed, 15 Aug 2018 13:37:06 +0000 Mrsbells 2839905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DesertDreams88: I was on weddingbee for about 8.5 years ago and then moved over to hellobee back when it was in the beta stage </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839821 Wed, 15 Aug 2018 08:17:45 +0000 josina 2839821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on WeddingBee from 2011-2012 when I was planning my 8/25/12 wedding, and still occasionally post when the HB boards are slow and I'm bored, same username.<br /> I joined HB in 2014 I think when I was pregnant with DS, I think I just stumbled on it during a google search but not sure how I even found it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839819 Wed, 15 Aug 2018 08:11:38 +0000 Kaohinani 2839819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sort of a NewBee. 😉😂 I came upon HB in early March 2018 and lurked for a bit. I joined on April 26, 2018 and I have been [fairly] active ever since. This is the first (and only) "online" board/post community (sans a combined FB page with DH) that I have been a part of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839818 Wed, 15 Aug 2018 07:59:15 +0000 skinnycow 2839818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lurked on WB when I was planning my wedding in 2012/2013. I starting lurking here in 2015 when I was pregnant with my daughter but didn't join until 2016. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839743 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 17:36:25 +0000 caitlanc 2839743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Fun question! I think I was on WB from about 2007-2012 and HB since 2011. Same user name on both but not terribly active on either.</p> <p>Side note: I hadn't been over to WB since before the Bees sold it. WHOA. It looks so different! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839716 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 14:58:42 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2839716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm, I just had to log in to WB to see how far back my posts went, and I guess I started posting in 2011. I know I lurked on the boards and read the blog for at least a year or two before that. (side note, I heard about WB from the 20's board on WW lol :silly: )</p> <p>I've been on HB for 6 years according to my profile LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839711 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 14:26:38 +0000 codeitall 2839711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started lurking on hellobee in 2013, didn't get an account till 2016 and I literally sat on my email invite for my account for months before that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839644 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:50:54 +0000 BlueWolverine 2839644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>WB in 2010/11 and HB in 2012 when I got pregnant with DD1. I do miss how active the boards used to be...but is nice that there is less drama :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839642 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:43:02 +0000 Sams Mom 2839642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lurked on Wedding Bee a little in 2014-2015 while planning my wedding. I found Hellobee from a google search in March of this year and fell in love with the boards. Every other board I have ever lurked or participated in either moved way too fast, was full of nasty comments, or better than you attitudes. I wish I would have known about it when I was pregnant with my son. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839638 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:38:07 +0000 wrkbrk 2839638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@peaches1038: I didnt know you ever did WB! Same username? Do you ever post these days over there (I do occasionally - same username)! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839637 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:37:10 +0000 wrkbrk 2839637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DesertDreams88: </p> <p>WB - about 6.5 years (since my engagement!)<br /> HB - about 4 years, from the time we first thought about having a baby :) He is now 2.5! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839636 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:36:25 +0000 SupernovaJ 2839636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only browsed WB back in the mid 2000's... 2005-2007 and when we were planning our wedding. I knew of Mrs. Bee through her Xanga and followed her from there. How is she doing, does she blog or have an active Instagram?</p> <p>It wasn't until we were TTC that I joined HB in summer 2013! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839633 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:17:44 +0000 nana87 2839633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got married in 2010 and so was on WB from sometime in 2009-maaaybe 2011ish? We didn't start ttc lo1 until 2013 but I had baby-fever, so I think I joined here in 2012ish but prob lurked before lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839629 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:05:47 +0000 Ajsmommy 2839629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on WB from 2010-2013 and then HB 2014 after having DD.</p> <p>I wanted to be a BEE on WB but didn't get accepted. LOL. </p> <p>I had a really tight knit birth month group that migrated to FB from WB. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839626 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 10:02:39 +0000 Rocker2014 2839626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I mostly lurked on WB 2008 - 2010, I really liked the community. When I somewhat unexpectedly became pregnant in 2014, I remembered hearing that there were plans to launch a WB type site for baby things, so I went back to WB and searched around until I found the name Hellobee, and I've been here ever since! I have learned so much from this community, and the values are a good match to mine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839625 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 09:59:39 +0000 kiddosc 2839625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>WB 2009-2011, Then our whole due date board moved over in fall 2011 during beta testing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839620 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 09:44:11 +0000 Mrs D 2839620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wedding Bee from 2010 through 2012....HelloBee from 2012 on... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839608 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 09:04:37 +0000 JennyPenny 2839608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on WB 2008-2010 when I was planning my wedding. Mostly reading blogs and not really focused on the boards. After I got married I really wanted to find a family/kid version even though we were a few years out from TTC but it didn't exist at the time. I remember when I stumbled upon HB when it was in beta it felt like such a magical day :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839604 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 08:46:06 +0000 snowjewelz 2839604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read WB but don't think I participated much on the boards. I didn't even realize there was an off-shoot HB till I was almost getting ready to TTC. I started on here Nov '13. Dec '13 was my last month of BC and we pregnant w/ DD1 Mar '14 and had her Dec '14! I too think that it wouldn't have happened so quickly if I didn't learn so much about TTC on here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839596 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 08:22:22 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2839596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was never on WB. I didn't do any searches for weddings as I didn't really care. </p> <p>I've been on HB since I was pregnant with my first in 2014, lurked a lot in the beginning. I've been sporadically active since then. I still do a lot of lurking. I found it by searching for parenting blogs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839591 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 08:06:36 +0000 avivoca 2839591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read/commented on WB from 2005ish-2007 when I got married, and then I started on HB in 2012 when we decided to TTC. When I was on WB, there weren't any boards or they had just started, not sure about that. I was in college though and participating in message boards wasn't really a thing for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839588 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 07:53:53 +0000 irene 2839588@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was with Weddingbee since 2006! I was hired by Mrs. Bee to do their blogger icon illustrations back then and I created that bee icon that was still on that website. The goodness continued until they sold it off (now it looks corporate and horrible). Now they hired someone way better (Oana Befort, love her) to illustrate for Hellobee :grin: </p> <p>I still kept a preview of most of the icons I created for weddingbee:<br /> <a href="http://eneri.net/EneriSite/irenesiohw/illustration/illustrations/illus_weddingbee.html" rel="nofollow">http://eneri.net/EneriSite/irenesiohw/illustration/illustrations/illus_weddingbee.html</a></p> <p>Mrs. Bee invited me to test out the Hellobee website back then before it was launched (around 2011), so I just absent-mindedly use my real name for the username, and didn't change it since. I was just pregnant back then so it was wonderful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839586 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 07:41:01 +0000 LAZB 2839586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I mostly participated on wb when ttc and pregnant with my first son, so 2012-2014. I switched over here after that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839584 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 07:34:42 +0000 RonjaL7 2839584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was never on WB, but started here I think in 2015 sometime while pregnant with my first. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839582 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 07:26:57 +0000 Anagram 2839582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>WB before my wedding in 2012--and I joined my birth month group there when I was pregnant in 2013; but I migrated pretty quickly over here at the same time. </p> <p>Compared to other parenting websites I've popped into, HB has always been way more sane. Most people here are anti violence towards kids and read about parenting and milestones and child development. It's surprising how common really bad advice (in terms of child development) is on other sites. So I have always appreciated the "atmosphere" of HB in comparison. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839577 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 07:09:17 +0000 peachykeen 2839577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read WB while planning my wedding in 2013 but never participated in the boards. I lurked on HB and posted sporadically in the months before DD1 was born (2014) but got much more active while TTC DD2 in 2016. This community has been so great since I don't have a lot of close local mom friends :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839573 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 06:42:03 +0000 dolphin 2839573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was never an active user on WB but I joined HB the beginning of 2013.

I was never on WB. I found HB through a google search and I still remember not quite understanding what I was looking at on the blogs at first. Then bam one day I saw the link to the boards and was at home lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-how-long-have-you-been-on-wbhb#post-2839566 Tue, 14 Aug 2018 04:42:53 +0000 Adira 2839566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weddingbee 2008-2009 and then Hellobee since September 2011!!
