We're only a month or so short of a year without any blog updates. Just curious who else is still around lurking?
Hope everyone is having a lovely holiday season.

I check in every once in awhile but not nearly as often as I used to.

I lurk pretty frequently! Not much going on here but I do wonder how some of the old bloggers and the Bee family are doing!

I'm here! I check every day. I really miss when this group was hopping. The boards got me through the early years with my oldest.
And i'd love an update from Mrs. Dolphin with their move and new baby (who must be 2 or 3 by now!); and I love when Mrs. Starfish pops in... my daughter is 6 mo younger than her girls, so her posts were always perfect to prepare me for what was about to come!

I still lurk and check in daily. I miss the blog so much still! And I always thinks of things I want to post on the boards but I hate typing from my phone and I’m not at my computer as much as I used to be.

I still lurk once in a while. I am sad there is no more blog post.
My kids are older now (9 and 7) so I don't think the community as much... but back then I used to be a silent reader....

Still lurking. This community was such a huge part of my life for a long time. It feels hard to watch it fade away.

Still here, too! I agree it’s very sad there’s not as much posting, community, etc. I learned so much about pregnancy, fertility, postpartum, from these boards that I can’t imagine not having it around. I frequently still search old threads! I wondered if we could move the “community” to Facebook but it is nice to have some anonymity, especially when dealing with fertility and kid stuff. I also only use Facebook for my neighborhood gossip so I’d have to check it more

Still here a few times a week. Baby #2 is coming imminently and it’s sad that I don’t have a cohort of people going through the same things like I did with my first. This site got me through my repeat losses leading up to my first when I knew nothing about all the things that could go wrong. I don’t really use Facebook so if it moved over there I would drop out.

I still check in often. I’ve been so grateful for this community. I picked up so much useful advice along the way, especially through the baby/toddler years. My kids were often too fussy for me to have real conversations during moms groups I tried to join in person, so I loved having a community online to not feel as alone in those early years.

I don't visit as often as I used to but I definitely pop in every once in a while. I miss this supportive community, you ladies all rock.

I'm still here, too. I check in every day - it's like a reflex to open the site since I've been doing it for so long.

Still here but checking in less regularly for sure. I also credit the site with helping me survive my losses (especially the last, hardest one) and am so thankful for that.

I still pop in every once in a while to check in. Seems I may be the only former blogger around... It makes me sad that the site went so silent. It's on my to-do list to write up a post that I just put in the boards, but it keeps slipping away from me!

I check in occasionally, but don’t normally post. It’s crazy that we’re approaching a year since the last blog post. I was honestly surprised I remembered my login to post this!

I still lurk. Checking this blog is like a reflex. It was so nice when the Bees started posting again and I'm sad that it has stopped. Does anyone know if they're still on the island or if they've moved somewhere else?

Oh, hi. I check in sometimes still too. Not too often since there isn't a lot of activity anymore. ☹️
I hope everyone is doing well!

I'm still here too! HB was so helpful to me during our infertility struggles and early days with DD1! I learned so much about IVF from so many of you sharing your experiences!

I lurked for years! Over 8 years of lurking. Haha. And during the pandemic finally created a screen name. Although by that point it was pretty quiet. But I still stop in!

I am still here every once in awhile. I miss blogging for the site!

I check in once a week or so and try to contribute when I can. I still search old posts for advice as HB has always been a great resource.

@Mrs. Train: your kids must all be practically teenagers at this point!

@karenbme: congrats!
Feeling guilty that I’m part of the cried that’s missing. Three under 5 just has me all over the place. Have an au pair now but still somehow can’t seem to get here like I’d like. Miss you all.

@yellowbeach: right there with you with 3 under 5!️️@smuckers: I come and go but not as much! It’s slow! It was very helpful for me 5 years ago with my first!

I used to check in once a month or so, but since I just got the shocking news the #4 was actually #4 and #5 I've been back searching the archives again

@codeitall: Wow!!!! Congratulations! Are you in shock? I guess how could you not be

@LadyDi: Definitely spent a few hours on and off hyperventilating before my kids got home. I feel like there should be some special doctor/tech training about how to tell pregnant ladies the ultrasound has multiples so they can drive home safely

Another lurker. I loved these boards when I was pregnant with my first, who is almost 10!
We’re expecting #3 so I’ve been lurking again, trying to remember all the stuff about early pregnancy!
