Verification Thread and Going Private
Hey fam! It's been decided that we will finally be going private on October 15th! In order to accomplish this we will need everyone to get verified prior to then. The sooner, the better. The Mods have determined that in order to be verified for our private bump group, each bumper will need to post on this thread the following for verification:
- A photo containing a positive pregnancy test or sonogram image with a piece of paper with the date and username written on it.
- Once you have posted this, a MOD will reply with "verified" once you have been verified within the system.
Hot tip: since we will not be private until October 15th, you might want to remove any personally identifying information if you are using the sonogram image from an ultrasound.
ETA: Verification in this method is extremely common and standard for bump groups. Reminder, we're requesting that you not have personally identifiable info in your photo (presumably a pee stick/redacted sonogram image, handwriting, and your anonymous username with "today's" date would not be personally identifying medical information and therefore not a violation of your privacy while also demonstrating that you're not AI or something else nefarious).
We've had many requests/questions about when we're going private and we wanted to address that collectively. Additionally, some bumpers have deleted their verification post on this thread after getting their verification confirmed. Anyone is very welcome to do that! We want to protect all of us (hence the going private) from internet creepers that other types of public pregnancy/postpartum/breastfeeding subs are bombarded with.
