I've had some great advice, but I don't know how to comment and say thank you. It says I can tell what happened, send a flower, or ask another question. Anyone know how to comment on responses? Thanks!

What can I do next?

What B said.
And, if you want to call attention to it so that people know to go back in and read the update, in your question title you can add at "SWH Added"
For example on this post, your edited title would be "How do I comment of responses - SWH added"

You respond in the What Happened section.

You say THANK YOU - by sending "flowers".

You update your questions using the SWH - So What Happened feature.
Or you can open your post and edit it - by stating ETA (Edited To Add) and then put the information- you can separate it by using a line ________________ like this - between the two sets of information/dialogue.

If you send messages? You might get nothing in return. Who knows. I personally wouldn't do that.

Welcome - you use the "So what happened" section.

You can also "ETA" which means edited to add.

In addition to what was said below, you can private message individual responders to thank them. That can take a lot of time, so only do it if you have more to say than just "thanks," or if you have something to say that's kind of private and not for everyone to see.

If you comment in the SWH section, some people may not see it. They won't get a notification via email so they'll only see it if they go back to check subsequent responses - which some people do often, others don't. Same goes for responders who edit their answers - you won't know it unless you go back and re-read or at least skim to see if they wrote ETA ("Edited To Add") to their original answer.

You can send a private message to each mom letting her know that you appreciated her advice, or you can add it on your "SWH" part of the question by saying:

"Martha - Thanks for your advice, it was really helpful.

Janet - I appreciated the funny anecdote, I feel better about the situation."
