TTC After a Loss

I think I have the new low/high in the TTCAL edition

of WTF was I smoking when picking my friends?

I was talking to a friend and she was all concerned that I've been absent from social activities and such. I then told her about the loss and the fact that I just don't feel like doing some things:

READY? (no. really. you need to prepare)

"Friend": Oh, I know how you feel. When I got my last abortion, I was totally sad.

Indifferent

I didn't even know what to say, so I just hung up. I mean really? REALLY? I'm not even upset, I'm honestly at a loss for words at how bad I am at picking out friends.

  • WTF? People suck.

     

    I finally told BFF this weekend and the first thing she said was "Were you trying?" UM, wtf dude? Why does that matter and would it hurt any less if we had an accident? No, it wouldn't. I had something terrible happen to me and that's what you have to say???

    Baby N conceived after 1 miscarriage and more than 2 years of TTC. Diagnosis was low sperm count. We found success after 3 months of anastrozole to increase DH's testosterone and one IUI.

  • That's ridiculous.  You can't compare a chosen loss to an unplanned, unexpected, and unwanted loss.  And I do know there are some women here that made the choice to go through their losses, but that was not because the child was an inconvenience or a problem; it was because it was the best thing for their child, and the kindest decision to make. 

    Your IRL friend(s) need to STFU!!!

    I had been asked this countless times after I told people about our loss. I have wondered if people ask because they feel like they're out of the loop, since they didn't know we were trying to have a baby (as if they needed to be in the loop on this one...).

    Oh, yes for sure. This friend has ended two pregnancies purely b/c she didn't feel like having them and didn't want to be tied forever for the men she was with at the time. (Nothing like anything anyone one this board has been through)

    And while that's her right in this pro-choice world, damn it, I wanted mine.

  • Central Florida wonder if it is the same "friend"

     

    sadly I know people like that and i've chosen to stop all communication with them. Those that like to fake their pregnancies to.

  • Indifferent  What do people think really?  When they say crap like that.  It just amazes me how much people stick their feet in their mouths...  Im sorry you had to deal with that...  I would have told her that my loss and your abortion are two TOTALLY different things Ahole!

    Oh and btw, thats why you should just hang out with us!  Cuz we would NEVER say stuff like that to you!.
