or is it just me, I think dd has changed me.
i just got told of for posting on a home birth thread, how dare I say that dd would have died if I had a home birth.
I just don't fit sometimes.

Hello everyone,
To be clear we thought the new topic was a good idea for two reasons. One because it made sense from a purely organisational point of view. It is a distinct subject and the pregnancy topic is large (this is our thinking behind the initiation of most new topics). Secondly, and of course the catalyst in this case for the new topic was that lots of folk had said they'd rather not be exposed to discussion of termination in the case of abnormal scan results and lots of other folks said they felt reluctant to post about termination in pregnancy. The new topic means it's easy to hide. That doesn't mean anyone is disallowed from expressing their opinion (whatever that may be) within it (this is Mumsnet after all), nor does it mean that people are obliged to use the topic (as opposed to pregnancy) to discuss their antenatal options. We're not trying to ghettoise anyone, neither are we trying to shut conversation down. But clearly this is a sensitive area and we can't see any harm in creating a separate topic, which many have expressed a wish/need for.
Best,
MNHQ

Hello - a reminder that if you have concerns about another poster's behaviour please do report them to us. We'll take a look but it's a better way of dealing with it than discussing someone on the boards.
Thanks.
