I'm so tired of being judged.
Judged because DH and I are TTC.
Between being called crazy (which, ok, I think we're a little nuts too, wanting to try so early.) but, greedy and selfish? Are you kidding me?
I was told we were greedy because we already have one baby. And selfish because there are couples in this wourld desprately wanting a baby and haven't had one yet. How ridiculous.
And, how everyone found out irks me even more. An airman over heard a conversation (actually she admitted to listening purposely to our little chat) between myself and my great friend out here. She then in turn not only told me that we were greedy but she went and told everybody she could think of.
She's young and dumb and right now I want throat punch her.
Re: I rarely do these, but - FFFC
Not sure. She's young. I thought she was 20...I found out she's about to turn 19. She does have a boyfriend/fiance. I'm not sure what he is, but I know they're together. But, it just p*sses me off she went and told the entire office we're trying for number 2 when the only one I wanted to know was my friend that I was telling.
I dont think that is a reason to treat her that way either I was just wondering if there was some motivation behind her doing it.
Not sure. To be honest that was my first weekend meeting her as the new airman in our office.
Are you active duty? Maybe she's irked because another baby will mean a different job for you?
(I'm not saying what she said or is doing is right. You are in no way greedy or selfish for wanting another baby. But, my eyes have been opened in the past few months working with the military and some people actualy do feel that way. Some people do get pregnant just so they won't be deployed, etc. Again, I know you're not that kind of person, but, if she's young and an idiot....)
No, DH is the AD Air Force. I'm just a DoD civilian who works in the same office as her.
Oops
Bump had a hiccup
Wow. Then I have no idea. I try and give people liek that (especially so young) the benefit of the doubt and think "Why would they be acting this way?" but there's nothing else that comes to mind.
She's an idiot.
And you are an amazig mommy who deserves 10 babies (if you want them).
We heard similar things when we landed a surprise second pregnancy last year. It's silly.
Now all I hear is, "you better not be pregnant again - you DO know what causes it, right?"
Thank you for saying that! Seriously made my day!
I think people TTC right now are crazy, but it's more of a teasing thing. The selfish and greedy party makes me think WTF. Because other people can't have children you should wait? When is it appropriate to have a second child, then?
Seriously, people will never run out of things to say that amaze me.
