I joined almost immediately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1158118 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 08:18:14 +0000 Mamaof2 1158118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes I lurked for a few months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1158026 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 07:46:10 +0000 mediagirl 1158026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I joined and started talking a lot and became a hostess pretty quickly! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1158023 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 07:45:10 +0000 Alivoo01 1158023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope because I joined when it was still in Beta! I wasn't active until I started TTC a few months later since I didn't have any experience/feedback to give prior to that since the community was small and most of them were already pregnant or had LOs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157856 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 03:54:44 +0000 illumina 1157856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I lurked for about 4mths through TTC and the first couple of months of pregnancy before I signed up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157807 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 01:51:39 +0000 BabyMats 1157807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lurked from the moment I got my BFP. Then during my 3rd trimester I decided to join but mostly lurk still because I am a lazy typer </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157798 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 01:09:40 +0000 tysonja 1157798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! I lurked for a good year and even now I only post sometimes... Mainly cause I'm lazy to type a response! I read almost everyday, though! Love hellobee! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157767 Fri, 18 Oct 2013 00:25:21 +0000 Running Elley 1157767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. But I was still posting on WB for awhile at first. It wasn't until I was pregnant with E that I became more active on here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157349 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 20:31:35 +0000 yellowbird 1157349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157280 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 20:17:45 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1157280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Joined and posted right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157265 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 20:15:31 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1157265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep, for a bit before I was married I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157193 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 20:03:07 +0000 yin 1157193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Joined right away and became a regular poster. I slack off every now and then, but I have a feeling I will be on here more often once baby arrives. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157155 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 19:58:56 +0000 photojane 1157155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, I wasn't even pregnant yet and I was all up in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157144 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 19:57:55 +0000 MrsF 1157144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was a lurker for maybe 3 months. I was so overwhelmed with M as a newborn that I was just reading HB on my iphone for months while nursing but it took me a while to join in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1157141 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 19:57:21 +0000 shinymama 1157141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!

Started lurking right after I got my BFP and didn't join until about a month after she was born. I still read way more than I post! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156627 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:27:42 +0000 jhd 1156627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read the blog for several months before even checking out the boards. I joined &amp; started participating on the discussion boards once we were ttc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156509 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:03:01 +0000 Mrs. Polish 1156509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I applied as a blogger before I even joined. Once I found the boards though I jumped right in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156501 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:02:03 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1156501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I joined right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156498 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:01:04 +0000 MrsScallop 1156498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I was a long time lurker. I decided to join when I felt like I actually had things to contribute to posts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156446 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:48:41 +0000 artsyfartsy 1156446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only for a little while. I think I discovered the site when googling how to get through the TWW! The day I got my BFP I signed up and joined my birth club! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156445 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:48:12 +0000 Kimberlybee 1156445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@petunia354: LOL you are so funny! I am so glad you did too. I am so glad to have "met" you. LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156434 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:46:07 +0000 petunia354 1156434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I was a lurker for a long time. I was so creepy. I knew all about the Feb '13 mamas (since I was one of them) but was too shy to post. Finally, after I had DS I got the courage to introduce myself and I'm SO happy I did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156431 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:45:27 +0000 lemondrop 1156431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No lurking here, I joined in right away. I think it helped that it was a pretty new and smaller community, so it was easy to join right in. It was also just 6 weeks before biggest thing I've ever done, so I wanted to learn as much as I possibly could! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156419 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:42:48 +0000 mrskc 1156419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I had to join since it was in Beta but I didn't really post that much in the beginning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-a-lurker-before-joining-hb#post-1156413 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:41:23 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 1156413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I still lurk more than I post, but hopefully someday I'll be more active and have more to contribute. </p>
