Everyone seems to really truly care and educate themselves about what they are doing. The support is also wonderful and I have gotten some great insight on here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee/page/2#post-138055 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 01:23:28 +0000 808love 138055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love many things. Quality blogs, interesting boards, great tech features, friendly thoughtful responses. And I love that even if you (I) write something off the wall, you always get a response from SOMEONE out there....even if it's the hostesses ---not meant in a bad way, but like you might 'have to do it so nobody is at 0 comments. So anyway... you don't feel completely alone in your quirkiness. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee/page/2#post-138015 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 23:31:17 +0000 BSB 138015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: I completely agree with you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137999 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 23:05:16 +0000 MaisyMay 137999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love that I can come here and talk about how crazy TTC was making me, how hard it was to be around pregnant people, how crazy periods get, and it's all okay. If I had a friend IRL who I told all that to, they'd think I was nuts!<br /> Also, it isn't weird to post about finding out you're pregnant at 3 1/2 weeks, the day you find out, when you can't really tell anybody else! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137952 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:53:35 +0000 Boogs 137952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: I stink at starting posts, so I think I'm still short of the minimum requirement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137949 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:43:01 +0000 BSB 137949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: Oh, hehe. Yeah, for about 2 weeks. Are you going to apply soon? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137948 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:37:50 +0000 Boogs 137948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: You're a hostess!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137922 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 20:49:17 +0000 SugarplumsMom 137922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Where else would I be able to talk about all things baby? I live abroad and all my friends have babies themselves ... working the time difference and finding time to talk is tough.</p> <p>You all are my therapy, my outlet ... reading your stories everyday makes me feel like you're my friends-away-from-friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137906 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 20:39:51 +0000 Nskillet 137906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMamaBear: YES!! Cant say the same for weddingbee, it is the biggest difference I notice!</p> <p>I also just love the different parenting styles, ideas, and philosophies that people share so freely. I love being able to pop on and read thread questions to get my mind going about parenting in ways I toally wouldnt have on my own.</p> <p>I cant wait to share my labor/birth story with everyone too! Sharing my pregnancy with so many different women and man (tee hee Mr. Bee!) has been incredible!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137822 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:52:17 +0000 cupcakemama 137822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As pp have said it's the sense of community and the support that make HB so good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137813 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:49:59 +0000 holdonforonemoreday 137813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love everything about Hellobee! I was thrilled when I heard about it and I love it so much. I'm not much of a commenter, but Hellobee has totally changed that for me. </p> <p>This place feels like home! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137787 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 19:35:25 +0000 BSB 137787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the @ reply notifications, the small community, nice and supportive members and the no drama. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137682 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 17:55:20 +0000 Boogs 137682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just love the Support here. Everyone is always so friendly and honest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137667 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 17:48:47 +0000 lilteacherbee 137667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: completely agree! </p> <p>I love that its a supportive environment where I can go baby-crazy without people thinking I'm, well, crazy :) Its definitely a unique online community! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137613 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 17:12:52 +0000 Grace 137613@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the respect that the members have for eachother. Also, I love the educational (for parents), type blog entries (like positive parenting and benign neglect and media awareness, etc). Also, I really like that it's not a big corporation with ulterior motives running the site. And I love that it's not just one person blogging, 'cause you get so many different perspectives. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137446 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:30:23 +0000 banana 137446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with everything everyone said! The no judgements, no drama, and great support and advice. It's awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137423 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:24:40 +0000 Arden 137423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally agree about the non-judgmental attitude. We ttc or pre-ttc ladies that are totally baby crazy and baby fevered, and we're treated like we're normal here. :) Anywhere else people think we're nuts, but here, it's ok. People like us anyway. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-137409 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:21:53 +0000 lavender 137409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the openess, advice, non-drama, support, and everything else about HB! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136938 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 11:37:55 +0000 chopsuey 136938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Ditto!!!! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136925 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 11:34:25 +0000 MsLipGloss 136925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's definitely a *safe* environment to admit things that weigh on you (like how hard it can be to be pregnant/ be a parent) that you don't necessarily feel okay about confiding with others. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136872 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 11:07:28 +0000 MsMamaBear 136872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No judgement! If someone disagrees, they don't go off into a tangent telling your WHY to them it's wrong. Yuck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136816 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 10:34:54 +0000 Alivoo01 136816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the support the community gives on everything, and the honesty in responses no matter what (none of the caddiness or the judging)! It gives real life perspectives from people with experience. Can't get that anywhere else! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136801 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 10:29:02 +0000 Ms.SK 136801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I echo everyone so far. This is a wonderful and active group of amazing soon to be and already blessed parents. The advice is genuine and sincere. I am on bed rest and just having a place to read something new and relevant to me has kept me going.<br /> I will throw in that in real life I plan conventions/meetings if we are serious I can help before my twins come because after they come I hope I have time to come up for air. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136780 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 10:21:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 136780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: that sounds sooo awesome!! we have family in NY so I'm there once a year anyway.... we should each have shirts designed that have our avatar and username on it so we know who each other are!</p> <p>@mrbee: ahhhsoo fun.</p> <p>@Lozza: lol!!!</p> <p>I love HB cause I never feel judged. I only ever find encouragement when I open up here. </p> <p>I love that I can ask all those seemingly small baby questions that books don't really answer.</p> <p>I love the community- everyone is welcoming and friendly. I truly call you friends!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136775 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 10:19:34 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 136775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the sense of community. You guys are awesome!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136720 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 09:52:35 +0000 mrs. wagon 136720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: @mrsjyw: @Lozza: lol!!! Seriously, I was thinking about how Weddingbee meetups seemed so frequent and awesome and why can't we do it with Hellobee?? Obviously... half of us are too pregnant to travel or meet up, some on bedrest, some on house arrest with newborns, most on house arrest with toddlers...!!! Hehe. </p> <p>Maybe we could do a yearly meetup in NYC since it's a pretty central place that people from afar would like to visit anyway?? And of course it would allow the Bees to definitely attend? It would be cool to find a place where we could have a buffet meal, chit chat, and have a section with hired babysitters with arts and crafts and a tv so that the kids could visit with each other as well!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/things-you-love-about-hellobee#post-136719 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 09:52:15 +0000 Andrea 136719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love everything and everyone.

Not sure exactly how that would work though! </p>
