All pregger discussions are deleted. Why?

Have you noticed that all discussions about "expecting" are quickly deleted? Wonder why? There are so many topics discussed here, personal and otherwise, yet this topic when it comes to fashion won't last beyond a day...

Most likely because the stupid and crude "preggars" word was used, and exactly because of what sunshine 45 said.

Need there be any other reasons?

Those two explain it all.

Threads were probably removed because of crude and insensitive posters on these forums. Wouldn't be surprised if one or two of the hosts read these posts and had them removed. I don't know if people just don't think when they make hurtful remarks or if they are just rude and insensitive.

how about doing it the old fashioned way......we WAIT for someone to announce that they are pregnant instead of speculating and then we say congratulations.

for those that ARE pregnant we say congratulations and then wish them a happy and healthy pregnancy.

perhaps we can leave rude, crude, and unnecessary comments about pregnant or supposedly pregnant hosts off of these boards.

probably wont happen this way, but just wishful thinking on my part. Wink

yes. i myself agree with your post.

Well just look at the word you just used. It makes it sound like a disease. The few posts I did read were not very complimentary, so I can see why. Being pregnant and having a baby is the most wonderful thing in the world.

Surely there must be a nicer way to say with child.

Re: All pregger discussions are deleted. Why?

Nothing wrong with using the word "pregnant", that I can see. However, the constant speculation about hosts is what I don't understand. If and when a host is pregnant, I'm sure that information will be shared by the host. What good do all the speculation posts do? Any response on the forums is pure speculation anyway. So what's to be gained?
