BabyCenter
Reviews and Complaints

I only used Babycenter community boards for a couple of days. It was so bad and full of hate directed at other women that I had to leave. The women on there are brutal little petty piranhas, ready to devour anyone they don't like. A lady was asking for advice regarding a cheating spouse and was cannibalized by the other women because of the situation. Insults were thrown around and a lot of cursing. No advice given! Their behavior is apparently all within the "rules" but God forbid you say someone is trolling (which is a banable offensive)...That is not an environment I want to be a part of. I found it unbelievable on a PREGNANCY SUPPORT GROUP that insulting others and pornography is allowed (it is, I checked the rules). And Lord have mercy if you are a Christian, it's okay to bully women for their religious beliefs despite them saying it is "against the rules." This site needs to get nuked.

I was a member on baby center on and off since 2016. I have never verbally attacked anyone, been mean or nasty or the like. I have not made violations to the rules. My account was recently banned for 'violations' that I did not make. I did not violate any of the board rules of bargain hunters and mommytotwingirls the GO reported my profile although others on bargain hunters board were calling me rude names, saying condescending and smug things to me and attacking my character for no reason. I never responded with any personal attacks or snark. This website is a place for sad and lonely women to be mean and attack people verbally while hiding behind their screens. It is really sad. They verbally attack you if you state that you are Christian. They call you names and insinuate that you are uneducated and delusional. kkkandy calls people names if they state their beliefs. it's really sad and pathetic and the site should be dismantled because mods pick and choose what they are going to report...

My screen name is Lovnmomma46 my account was disabled for absolutely no reason and no explanation! I have been being bullied and harassed since December of 2017 on Bargain Hunters Board by the same ladies I have reported and reported this issue many many times and absolutely nothing is done to about abuse! Even GO (mommytotwingirls) is participating in the bullying and harassing of me I have screenshots of all the bullying and harassing of me by these ladies GO show favoritism towards these bullies . Absolutely no one deserves to be treated the way these ladies have treated me! Baby Center site needs to be thoroughly cleaned up Staff members need to do there job instead of doing nothing at all about all the bullying and harassing that goes on on BabyCenter I have been a member of Baby Center since 2014 . I have never bullied or harassed anyone of these ladies. One lady who was bullied and harassed on BabyCenter has committed suicide ! Please take action against Baby Center I added photos and I have more if need be. Thank you so very much for taking the time to address my complaint Sincerely Dionne Foley (Lovnmomma46)

I can't imagine that those angry and mean women are someone's mothers. They are disgusting.
No matter what kind of question you ask, you will be cursed, screwed and "yelled at" by those crazy moms.
Stay away from this website society, they will eat you alive. I wonder how all of them survive among sharks like them. I think it's the worst website for parents.

The community on this website is very cruel. I don't recommend to use this website as a place for looking for answers.
Don't even try to post anything, don't ask questions. Those women from the community are like angry dogs willing to bite and eat you.
They may offend you. They curse, call names. Do you need it?
I am very frustrated. I know what this site used to be several years ago. I don't know what happened.
They have to drive all those women away not to make other normal women nervous.
Oh god, they are someone else's mothers... I honestly don't envy their husbands and children...

Only negative experience. Women registered there as users are mean and will laugh at you if you need their support or to ask a question. If you comment on something be prepared to be laughed at as well. It's not a kind place. I'm so disappointed by women from this website, they are like me, they are mothers, but why are they so angry? Mom shouldn't be like that. For real. Who in the world wants to be treated by unknown women from the internet? It's a terrible place.

This website allows bullying and moderators not only condone it, they encourage it. Grown women are harassing other members but nothing is done about it. The regular users bully new members on a daily basis but the group owners/moderators do nothing about it. Avoid if you can! This place is a soul sucking hole where cliques and immature behaviors are prevalent.

Your website moderators do a TERRIBLE job of managing bullies and harassment on your site. Do a quick search and see how many women have complained. I was attacked simply for deleting comments from a thread after I realized it was old. Babycenter did nothing about it. I reported several comments that were made and all I got was an email saying they would: Look into it and a friend of the poster commenting that somehow her comments were considered just "snark." They don't seem to care that this is happening to many women.

What a terrible website Babycenter is! It is full of angry and nasty women and I did the biggest mistake in my life when I decided to try this site. I left a comment and because my point of view was a bit different from theirs, I received tons of negative replies. They literally mentally attacked me, told me to leave the site, and other stuff. This website and its users are absolutely disgusting and gross! I left Babycenter not because they told me to do so, but because I could not stand it any longer. And the worst part is that Babycenter moderators don't seem to care! Do not waste your time here, you'll get nothing but headache!

OMG. I wanted to warn all pregnant ladies that the website www.babycenter.com is terrible place to visit and read. I registered and joined one group on the forum. But the ladies there were mean and rude, as well as they criticized everything what other people posted there. It wasn’t good and I was upset all the time. My husband told me to cancel the registration. I did as he told me and started to feel myself better.

WATCH OUT FOR THIS WEBSITE - ONCE YOU CREATE AN ACCOUNT IT CANNOT BE CANCELLED and no matter how may times you click unsubscribe or go into you account to opt out THEY NEVER STOP SPAMMING YOU. Even if you change your email address they keep it on file and you see duplicate spam mail in your new and old accounts. Seriously, don't join this site.

Let's say you're pregnant. Perhaps you have some questions, need some support, or just want to form positive connections with other pregnant ladies. Then don't go to babycenter! The birth boards are full of crazy and downright combative ladies who spend days on end posting rude comments. And the mods do nothing about it, sometimes they even join in! I am due in November 2012 and hoped to use this site frequently but ended up giving up on it within a week. My birth club had over 11k members but only a handful commented and the comments were overwhelmingly snarky/nasty. Oh, and to top is all off, if you want to cancel your account, you have to beg and hope they actually get around to it.
