Ladies! Stop sharing your pads! It is disgusting and disrespectful toward people on this app.

If you have questions, send your pictures to your doctor

Disrespectful? Oh please get over yourself. It’s a normal bodily function, we’re all pregnant, mums, or ttc. All been/going through it. If you feel “disrespected” by women asking other mothers about something then simply leave the group. Or better, delete the app. Stop being sensitive ❤️

Idk maybe just don’t click it. Not sure how sharing a vulnerable medical moment and asking a question is disrespectful to you… the only reason I’d say “ask your doctor” is just so the person can get more accurate Answers. If they want to crowd source a question about pregnancy, isn’t that what the app is for?

I don’t really feel disrespected when someone posts their pads as you have a choice to click and view it as it is not shown unless u click on it.. it also gives me information as a co pregnant ftm who don’t know anything..

Sorry Kristina you’re on your own there. Also, don’t speak for other people on this app and start saying it’s disrespectful towards them. You can have those feelings for yourself, in which case don’t open the pictures.

I don’t feel disrespected. I love how women can trust each other and give tmi. Our bodies are amazing, nothing disgusting about it.

get off the app please all of us women are coming together to ask questions and talk all the tmi things with no judgement if you have an issue please just get off the app or don’t click it

Hun, totally ok to be sensitive. The posts have a warning and they say ‘sensitive content’ just stay away from them, be and let other women be.

@Cody I thought now days it’s cool to be sensitive, so I am being myself.

@Harley not all these posts are marked as sensitive and I see these posts every day

@Avy If you feel uneducated please educate yourself via more trusted resources and courses. There is so much stuff available now for us to learn from. this is open information and still it should be discussed with your doctors and not with random ladies on the app.

@Avneet I saw other people complaining about it before, so no I’m not alone here

@Talia I like this app, there are many things to learn from each other, but not on this level. Also it can be verbally described if there is a need for discussion.

@Kristina well then happily be yourself elsewhere. Notice how no one has agreed with you? If normal bodily functions are disrespectful to you I advise YOU speak to a doctor as there must be a deep rooted problem. Get help soon!❤️

Hoooo, get the pop-corn,ladies, we got a Karen here.

@Kristina if only I was that privileged to be able to just contact and see a doctor/ hospital anytime I want to.. unfortunately it isn’t covered by my insurance & I have to pay out of the pocket which costs alot so just reading some of the stuffs other pregnant women are experiencing really helps me😊

@Cody also another normal bodily function is going to the bathroom to everyday but I bet you don’t post your shit on your Facebook and don’t ask for advice there. Mucus plug is normal and you can learn about the way it should look like by reading at least one book about pregnancy. Or simply google it. And it doesn’t need to show you graphics but rather describe what it should look like.

@Kristina you do understand this app was designed for mums-mums to be? God forbid you have a daughter that wants to talk to you about this kind of stuff later on. Also I see you joined a sex group, people are allowed to post about their intimate life but not their pregnancy? Be for real.

@Kristina also to add “read a book” unfortunately kristina, not everyone has a textbook pregnancy. Pregnancy is a beautiful yet scary thing, and it’s normal to want to turn to other women that are possibly experiencing or have past experiences with the same thing

@Cody it feels like no one moderates these groups, so sex group is also crazy there, but it’s a different topic. Being pregnant doesn’t automatically make it okay to post photos of every detail of that experience. Many women have haemorrhoids after birth, do you think it’s appropriate to post pictures of it to ask for advice here? My point is that asking about it is one thing - posting a picture is totally different. I am specifically annoyed by this topic because if instead of taking pictures of their pads, ladies would read about mucus plugs and learn how it looks like, what does it really mean in terms of progress etc, they would not need to post it at all because there is no value from getting others to see it and telling them yes or no 🙄

@Cody next you would tell me “unfortunately Kristina not everyone can read”? If people can’t afford a pregnancy book, they can get it for free from a local library. Or again, ask a doctor (at some point they should see a doctor and than they can ask their doctor for free educational support

@Kristina strongly disagree. People post pictures because they DO NOT know what mucus plug looks like. They may think something is wrong and they feel comfortable enough to come on this app. Also who said anything about affording a pregnancy book? I said not everyone has a textbook pregnancy. Also why would they go out of their way to purchase a book when there’s an app that’s been developed for that? Youd rather make friends along the way. Your point, and your post is invalid. End of discussion

I think this post is ridiculous. This is a space where women should freely be able to share any concerns/questions they have. If you’re not comfortable with it, just don’t click on the link. It’s really sad to see women with mentality like this. We’re all in the same boat and should be supporting each other, not being insensitive.

It’s off putting to be fair

I’ve yet to see a post like that but if I did I would assume it would just be someone sharing what something could look like which a lot of women don’t know (mucus plug etc) which would ultimately help someone, somewhere. Speaking for myself maybe I feel desensitized because we have periods use pads etc as women and it doesn’t bother me to see things like that but clearly that’s not everyone’s perspective and that is okay but you shouldn’t tell people what not to do on here especially if it’s for knowledge , show and tell , to help others get a visual, and they aren’t trying to be rude or disrespectful..

@Kristina a verbal description is not as accurate as a visual display of the problem. Again, if it offends you, just don’t click on it . The whole app doesn’t have to cater to you being uncomfortable or offended. There are literal warnings before clicking on posts like that just don’t click on them.

me running into this post as I came here specifically looking for bloody show pics because I want to compare to what I just had 😂
