LCB

Playing devil's advocate for a second....

For those of you who have never been treated for IF, or have never had the fear that you would never be able to bear children, I am thrilled for you. 

Maybe LCB has said things that have rubbed some the wrong way, but honestly if she wants to buy a diamond encrusted cradle for her child, that is her prerogative. Once in a while, us IFers need to brag about something. Going through treatment strips away all that is you. You are less of a woman, not being able to give your husband the child you want, you wonder if you are meant to be a mother. You have to pay for (financially and emotionally) a child that many women can so easily obtain. It changes who you are, and damages area of your life that you did not know even existed.  LCB has gone through a lot. After however many IVFs, she was finally blessed with triplets, only to lose two of them. It is a rough road, and she has earned the right to brag. If you don't like it, do not open or respond to her posts.

please do not take this the wrong way but her IVF/IF does not give her or anyone else the right to continuously degrade people who haven't had to struggle. I have not done IVF but getting here for me was rough and I almost lost my child on Monday. This does not give me the right to degrade anyone else for what they consider to be a "struggle". I simply pray no one else has to go through things like this. She is a bully and every other negative thing that has been said about her. Being judgmental is what she portrays here on the bump. Could be she is an entirely different person IRL. In my case my IF struggle makes me more grateful for what I have, doesn't need to turn you into a bitter b!tch.

This whole post is pretty ridiculous.

For those who do know LCB, who have gone through some of their darkest days with her, who have walked through failed cycle after failed cycle, she is nothing but supportive caring and thoughtful. She has offered prayers to me when I have doubted everything about having a healthy pregnancy. Offered me her personal cell # if I ever needed to just talk or vent. Checked up on me when I disappear for a few days. And so much more. 

So to OP, do you really think you are accomplishing some great feat by calling LCB out? Isn't this basically what you all had a problem with a few posts down? And now you feel the need to gang up on LCB? Way to go. 

As you all like to preach, if you don't like what the post is, move on.

 

 

Im not buying that excuse. LCB isnt the only one who has had T-TTC. Nor is she the only one with endo & fibroids. And if anything, you would expect someone who went through all of that to be humble and greatful that they are pregnant....not a complete b!tch towards others who are going through the exact same process. There is no exceptions to the rule. A b!tch is a b!tch.

And yes, LCB, you wear the title well.

I am not sure exactly which excuse you are referring to. I was trying to explain how she has supported me. And I never said she was the only one who has had TTTC. 

And just because she has struggled with IF doesn't mean she should sit in a corner like a mouse and be humble and grateful for a pregnancy. To imply that anyone should should shut the hell up and thank their lucky stars that they are finally pregnant! is insulting to us all. I'm pretty sure IF doesn't completely erase a personality.  Nor does being pregnant. 

What I obviously failed to get across to you was that she has been supportive to ladies on here. Not the big ole' bad LCB that you all seem to have a blood thirst for tonight.  

 

Umn, Im not implying that she should shut the hell up. Im implying that she should have a civilized dialogue with other women on here (without belittling them or creating unecessary drama about them) because we are all going through the same thing --- pregnancy. I am also implying that her situation does not excuse her behavior. 

I am glad she was able to relate to you however, she has been a complete pain to many a posters on this board. Enough is enough. Personally, I dont care what problems she had (sh!t we all have problems). It simply does not give you an excuse to be a b!tch.

I didn't catch the family vacay thing.  That must have been hard.

But, you are always ragging me for projecting my misery on others - isn't that exactly what you are doing to me about my vacation since you never got to take yours?  Hmmm....interesting thought....

nice try... but since we're discussing it, it is its own conversation. if you'll recall, i just told you to go snorkeling, didn't i? i didn't just lay into you when you said you were in hawaii months ago... i'm explaining how you could look ungrateful since you seemed confused.

 

Actually, if I recall, you mentioned the death and that I should be grateful to be there during the post in March - I just didn't gather the whole it was a famiy vacay thing.  But, your intentions were still the same.  Make me feel bad b/c you were upset about the situtations surrounding your missed trip (rightfully so but still trying to make someone feel bad for your misfortune).

uh, no... that's not the same as what you did to max. she was trying to say something nice to you, and you jumped all over her for four posts in that thread, then started a new thread to belittle her further.

did i do that?

I am sensitive about things that are posted about infertility that are either not true or not 100% fact (like the comments about weight - trust me if it was as easy as just being the ideal BMI a lot more women wouldn't need treatment). 

Unfortunately, IF is very misunderstood in our world due to te media and people like octomom, J&K+8, etc.  So, since it is a battle I have personally fought, I will always be sensitive when misleading things are posted.  Heck, the news can't even use the right terminology when trying to talk about something IVF related.

I don't see how that makes me insecure - it makes me want my struggle to be properly portrayed and understood.

This really annoys and upsets me also as I've been through 4 IVF cycles myself and have struggled with having to deal with ignorant people/misinformation also. However, it makes more sense to me to use my experiences as a way to educate people about IF in a way that doesn't make them feel like they have to apologize for their own fertility/lack of understanding. Unless someone is an utter douche, they will appreciate being told how it really is and they are more likely to listen to what you have to say when you're not attacking them.

I'm all for calling out a$$hats where appropriate, but using IF as a means to justify random bullying really boils my potatoes. 

That response was directly related to a posts last week about Guiliana Rancic and her being told to gain 5 pounds.

I don't think it is appropriate to use struggling with IF to excuse someone's behavior.

I usually don't chime in on this type of post, but I have to... What did we all learn in school? LCB is a insecure bully. Secure people don't have to consantly mention all the money they have to be validated. They don't have to make rude comments to people knowing damn well they grew a nut sac because they are hiding behind a computer. Secure people would never use personal struggles such as infertility as a way to talk themselves out of a corner. Yes LCB I dont not have as much money as you. I am greatful that my family is buying my daughter nice gifts I might  not be able to provide. But like most women on this site I come here because we all have somthing in common and we all get *** on in our daily lives and this site can be a refuge.

Off my soap box...

To the OP: I love you!! THANK YOU for saying what so many of us have thought but just haven't bothered to give LCB the time of day to say.

I am so glad to know I am not the only one who cannot STAND this douchenozzle. Every.time I see her name posting away I roll my eyes. I am also amazed that someone has SO much time on their hands that they can actually remember small details of posts in the past - not just what was posted, but WHO posted it (referring to a post about someone GBCB'ing, and even remembering who it was and the other things they posted about.  Really?) The only person that has been on my radar has been LCB. Because she is a douchenugget to so many on here. And I really have nothing nice to say about her. Every day I hope she will gain more of a "real life"  and stop spending so many countless hours on here bullying others.

This place is not about puppies and rainbows but it could certainly do without a$$hats like her. She's mentioned to others that karma will get them. Don't worry LCB... I'm sure I'm not the only one on the other side of the screen patiently waiting to see your karma-bus run you down.

LCB is obviously completely unhappy with her life.  It?s either that, or despite what she says, has absolutely no life whatsoever.

 

I know quite a few people who have dealt with IF and none of them are as bitter as you are.  Get over yourself.

 

Also, I love how you try to pretend that you are a Christian.  There is a difference between giving someone your opinion and being straight up arrogant, obnoxious, rude, ignorant, and mean.  I?m pretty sure that no where in the bible does it say that it?s ok to constantly call people ?trash? or to say to them ?you disgust me,? ?you?re pathetic,? etc.  You go out of your way to be hurtful to people.  I?m pretty sure God would consider that a sin.

 

You?re that woman who will be picking on your daughter?s friends along with her 13 years down the road from now because you?ll probably still be completely miserable with your life.

 

Oh and one more thing?..I think we?re all tired of hearing about your FOUR showers.  If you have so much money, then you really just look ridiculous for having that many showers.  Honestly, you can people you don?t want them or they are not to buy you anything.  I?m sure you will never do that, though, because you obviously need to be the center of attention at all times.

Then you should be worried too my dear b/c I don't think karma has caught up to you for everything you said/ did just yet! 

You might have waited a few more weeks before trying to pull the karma card.
