How did you choose your PIG?

[Rouge]

Google randomizer. Go into your Belly Buddies thread... use the randomizer to come up with a number and then pick the author of that number thread

[feeb]

I asked my pig as they were someone I was close friends with and saw IRL and I was hers for her 2nd baby so I thought it was a great honour to do for her so would like to recipriocate.

[~breeze~]

We partnered up in our belly buddies group. As it turned out no-one announced DS's birth so I ended up doing it myself
Just pick someone you feel comfortable with & someone that you know will follow through with it, I know when mine didnt follow through I felt invisible or maybe not good enough as I had done theirs, you dont need those extra feelings just after you've had a baby

Good luck! There are lots of lovely ladies here to choose from!!

[~clover~]

Thanks guys

I put it in my status thingy under my username that I was looking for one. Had one member offer to do it so I accepted (had other offers after but said I already had someone) then she kind of disappeared from the forum for a bit so ended up posting myself.

aww Breeze i felt bit sad for you when i read this cause here's me on the other end who can't have anymore children other than my one beautiful DD and wonder why no one would ask me as i would be just so darn super excited let alone be deeply & truly honoured, for me it would be a gift as i will never experience the joy of another bub and to be someone's PIG would be as close as i could get to my own excited if i was having another bubba IYKWIM and believe me the announcement would be done with a lot of love for a bubba i may or may not meet but the being able to do it would be such a JOY and i'd be one proud PIG (and i know the new Mumma would really like my announcement as i'd make sure i'd do a fab job of it)

(Don't forget me Breeze & Eluned if you ever have another ok )

A lot of the girls in my Belly Buddies group paired up too. I said I'd like to do it for someone and have someone for me, but no-one took me up on it. When I was in hospital starting labour and updated my facebook status, though, they all jumped on it and wondered what I was up to (I was deliberately vague so I could tell them all myself that Ianto had been born/died)

I have noticed, unless I've just not looked properly, no-one's actually posted a BA thread for their PIG partner, just posting in the Buddies thread. I thought doing a proper BA was the point of having a PIG?

That is the idea so people not in belly buddies group know! As I have many friends on BB not in that group.

It is such an priviledge to be someone's PIG and for me I can't wait to do my PIG duties, I was a Belly Buddy with mine during our last pregnancies and we are quite close and I am honoured to be her PIG. I haven't made mine offical yet, but will soon, I want a couple though, but most certainly will be those whom I trust, who I know will post and whom I know will be honoured to be my PIG

[Roryrory]

what does PIG stand for?

[retrogal]

PIG- Post It Girl

My eldest sister is mine i picked her as she's coming to the hossy with me and DP

[STARRYSKY]

Post It Girl! sounds a bit rude in acronym form doesnt it?

Hj asked me to be her PIG and I was very honoured, she and I were belly buddies with our first, but met through BB when we both had mcs at the same time, shared similar journeys, and now even though we have never met, I truly think of her as one of my closest friends!
Hopeully one day I can ask her to the same for me..

Aww smiles - that made me cry!! - i know now who i'll be choosing should i be blessed with bubba #2

With DD1 we paired up in our belly buddy thread - so I was hers, she was mine.

With DD2 I wanted Sarah H to be my PIG because we had similar journeys with our births and I absolutely adore her. I was so excited when she called me after I had Eden.. it was the first time we had talked on the phone.. bahahahahahaha!!!!!

I'm not sure why the others asked me - I offered to be Sunshine's because she didn't have one, and we always chat on FB together and she's an awesome chick

Plus - is there anyone else who is on BB as much as me?

[Visitor7]

I had Maz with DD2 as we talk both online and on the phone reguarly. She will also be announcing DD3's arrival.

I have noticed, unless I've just not looked properly, no-one's actually posted a BA thread for their PIG partner, just posting in the Buddies thread. I thought doing a proper BA was the point of having a PIG?

Maz announced DD2's arrival by posting it in the BA thread. I think she may have posted in my buddies thread, can't remember though.
