Hi I'm new to circle of mom's so I'm not quite sure how it works.
I have started conversations and I have had replies, but it never alerts me or notifies me. Are we supposed to back track and find our conversation and scroll through it?

Please let me know because this is my 2nd day on here and I'm very confused as to how to find replies to my convos and to my answers. :)
thanks!

Alert means people have given you a Helpful, Nice, Funny or Encouraging for your posts.

Do you know about the drop down menu at the top of the page for Communities? If you go to the drop down menu, go to All Communities, you can search for any type of community out there. Just put in a key word and all kinds of things will pop up. Have fun on CoM and you can always send a Private Message to any of us moderators with questions, we would be glad to help you out. ~ Dana

Thanks girls. That is extremely helpful.
I realized the emails work (but it's a little frustratating because if there's a lot of notifications it takes a while.) But at least it's something.
Thanks Jenn, recent activity on the profile is a great tip! Thanks that helps A LOT :)
I wonder what that button "Alerts" means? I just assumed I would be notified there. But nope lol.
Thanks again. :)

You can look on your profile under 'recent activity' to find the threads you have started or commented on.

yes I have the same prob. What I have found it lets me know on my email that someone has responded to a post that I have eather started or comented on. But other then that I have had to back track. I do find it rather fusterating some times but what are you going to do. Any way welcome and I hope other then that you enjoy this page as much as me and find it helpful.
