I can assure you guys I'm not the crazy one. Honestly I feel bad for my step sister. I'm seriously being sarcastic about her getting off her meds just because she calls my sister and asks if it's normal she's shaking uncontrollably.. You just don't know the whole story that's all. And believe me you guys don't have the time. No I'm not in any way making fun of mental illness. She told my mom also that now that she's off her meds she's never thought clearer and now she's thinking trying to get pregnant may not have been the smart idea and she doesn't know if she wants to keep it. It just makes me mad because so many woman can't get pregnant and then she makes this decision to get pregnant and then says oh well there's another option if I don't want this baby. I'm more ashamed of her that's all. So I apologize if I sounded crazy but I just haven't got to talk to anyone about my feelings besides my husband and though I could vent a little to you guys.
As someone with mental illness this thread just went from haha to ok bye now.

Seriously, do people not think before they say shit on here? It's one thing to vent to your family about your step sister where they know her and her life situation..but to come on here with all these STRANGERS you just make yourself sound like a completely bat shit crazy dumbass. Tifers you sound foolish. Just stop.
Is it wrong that I have been laughing uncontrollably at that home alone GIF for probably five minutes... And I'm kinda upset nobody has brought out the cake yet. ):
I have brownies...does that count?
Are they of the special variety??
Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!
Girl I'm going through the same thing with my bitch of a stepsister. She purposely got pregnant again because of course she can never be left out. She's due 8 weeks after me and I'm livid. And this is our first baby and her second. Believe me I want to cut her for doing it.
Chicken's got a shiv!
Sorry, all the talk about cutting made me think about Beyonce the Metal Chicken
Lol sorry guys that was a little crazy! @mrscmwood are you new? I've never even seen any posts from you expect on HDBD. Please don't assume when you don't know me. Just sayin. Have a lovely evening ladies. I just had to get that all out because it's really been bothering me. This little thing with my step sister had been going on back and forth for years. It also has happened with my other siblings and her
I'll join the club 21 years ago I stole my sister & stepsister's thunder they were both pregnant before me my sister with her 2nd (born June 1st)and stepsister with her 3rd (born July 1 ) both Boys ... I the baby had a girl July 17th my first... So in 6 weeks we had 3 new grandkids... And my nephew and daughter are great.friends and even when to high school together.. so glad at least my sister at least didn't feel that way ... My step sister however did feel as you do and hasn't spoken to me or my sister in 20 years ...
This time at least neither of them can steal my thunder since they be way to old to have kids now !! It's silly and you need to work through the feelings because because of that kind of attitude I missed out on knowing my other nephews... And its sad I was very close to her 2 oldest !
My sister and my sister in-law are both due in June and I'm thrilled. My son and neice are a year apart and they are best friends. I could see being disappointed if some one was pregnant and you were ttc (though not letting that person know about your disappointment), but you're right, this is silly.
Just wow. OP, I hope you are able to forgive the extended family member for the perceived slight. I hope that your extended family member wasn't a bitch who intended to get pregnant with twins and steal your thunder. But I actually think PP totally stole your thunder to express how she'd like to cut her bitch of a step sister.
The funny part here, is that neither one of you know the whole story regarding these family members. And yet you are telling us that we don't know the whole story either. We can't read the contents of your uterus, so, what makes you think we can read the contents of your mind, too?
I have 5 make that 4 friends who are pregnant, the one who is not was due in January (her little boy arrived 3 weeks early 4 days ago and it thankfully doing well and went home last night according to facebook), one due in February, one due in March, and two due in April with me. DH and I had been TTC for over 2 years. Three of them even have a toddler, I'm glad they didn't wait for me to get around to scheduling my kid around them. Who knows how long it might have taken. Not a single one of those friends accused me of stealing their thunder, and if they had, we would no longer be friends.
Oooooh, now I remember Tifers, she was the one who made a deal that she got to name a girl and her husband got to name a boy, then reneged on that when she found out she was having a boy. You are super duper mature sweetums.

Yup. Except instead of going away, like someone we bash the hell out of does normally, she stayed to play and spew her cray cray everywhere.
Just an FYI about bipolar medication, my Dr said that he was not comfortable allowing me to take my bipolar meds or prescribe me another while I was pregnant. Also I'm 29 and was on birth control apart from just not having sex at all babies can happen even if you are using protection.
I'm going to get stabby if we're now at the point of saying "No kids for the mentally ill" I think some people should consider the fact they are in mixed company before they let things fly out of their faces. My daughter has mental illness that is well controlled at this point, she has worked hard to get where she is in life and I hope to God that she gets to have the children she so desperately wants someday. And when she does get pregnant, I'll support her, not hold her entire mental illness past against her. People are allowed to grow and change, FFS.
I just don't understand this thinking. I would love to be pregnant at the same time as my sister or any of my friends.
And thank you to all for calling tifer out on her tactlessness when it came to speaking about mental illness. People that judge mental and uninformed about it piss me off.

That makes sense. I stopped taking mine after the words "stop immediately if you become pregnant" kept circling in my mind.
My sister in law is due 2 weeks after is, but I've liked having someone to share stories with. My sister announced her divorce, my grandma and my husband's uncle died around the time we announced last time so that was rougher.
I'm sorry, but who the fuck do you think you are OP? What gives you the feet to stand on when it comes to judging who is "ready" to have kids and who isn't?! How did no one else catch that? What, cause you have money, you are "ready" to have kids? STFU you asshat. It takes more than money to make a HOME.

I completely agree. My best friend is due 3 weeks before I am, another close friend is due 4 weeks before I am, and I wish to God that BIL and his wife were able to get pregnant (they've been trying for three years) so we could go through this together. It's awesome not being alone.

Your post just made me feel sick to my stomach! Please please start supporting your sister. She is off her medication most likely having with drawl, that's why she is shaking and she is pregnant to top it all off. The symptoms of pregnancy very for everyone. The poor girl is probably thinking about abortion because she isn't receiving any support and feeling like crap! What's wrong with you? She needs a support group and she needs to see a therapist regularly, if she is as you put it "crazy". Help your sick pregnant sister, if your family claims they are Christians, you need to start acting like one!

This. All of this. I just couldn't bring myself to even respond without losing my shit. Besides as I've found out on here the stress isn't good for the baby. She might catch the gay.

I hope you're managing alright. I know its been very rough on me but my bipolar is bad I have had to be hospitalized 3 times before it was under control.
