TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

If my IRL IF friend...

...posts ONE.MORE.STATUS. on FB _bitching about how exhausting and how much work it is having a newborn, I am going to go full-throttle rawr-smash-kill-eviscerate on her a$$. For real.

Yes, I should hide her. I know. But that sick, twisted little part of me is morbidly curious about just how balls-out FH she is going to become. 

Re: If my IRL IF friend...

  • LOL I don't want to laugh but I totally get how you feel. I'd had started forwarding her posts to another friend who would make them even funnier for me. In fact, then I blocked her but I figured since her kid was almost a year I could unblock her (after checking her page for any posts and nothing) well, now everyday there is a new post how great her baby is! UGH... FH's who needs them? That could fix the overpopulation problems in this world- get rid of them! Could this be my platform when I run for political office?  (PS I'm drinking and think what I wrote is funny, so if it's not, maybe you should have a drink too) BeerDrinksBig Smile

    I think what you wrote is spectacularly funny and that you should keep up the drinking, my dear. 

  • Been there, done that.  Really hoping I wasn't "that person" during my one successful pregnancy.  Avoiding Pg people in general on the assumption that they are a FH.

  • Sounds to me like she needs a *gentle* reminder in form of an @ss kicking!  

    I can totally relate to not wanting to hide certain people! It's the same reason why I never delete people I never comment on, or never comment on me.

    Thanks! This is my plan. AND I just scored Tylenol with codeine.

  • I totally get the morbid curiosity, but I'm AMAZED you've been able to restrain yourself.

    12 long, hard years of TTC-
    Miscarriages, losses, lots of treatments & drugs & IVF


    Natural BFP (WTF?!) - 06/04/11 ~ lots of complication and drama, but sweet baby Adele born 02/07/12!

    BFP #million -another girl for us! EDD - 05-08-15 (but will come early)

  • This is exactly why I am not friends with DH's  FH cousins.  I can't deal with them and their nonsense.  I will admit to, on occasion, going onto DH's facebook page to look them up, but I don't want their crap in my newsfeed!!

  • She definitely needs a less-than-gentle reminder about just how lucky she is to be going through all these new mommy woe-is-me problems.

    First - LOVING all this.

    Second - Cut her a break. It's hard to be a good mommy when your baby is ugly.

    Snort. And has a stupid name. 

  • I have a friend who has dealt with if and losses and as soon as she got pg she turned into a fh. She even asked me how I felt when I was pg with twins because she thought she was having twins at first after her IUI. Her baby is due in May and I know she will post complaining about the baby since she is complaining daily about her pregnancy.

  • There is nothing more annoying than those kind of complaints from someone who knows what you have been through.  I have to hide them- it drives me nuts.

  • How quickly they forget how hard they worked to get what they want.  Are you good enough friends you can remind her how much she wanted this?

    And my latte just shot out my nose.  

    Ok, back to lurking.

  • Ugh!  Isn't it annoying that you can't bring yourself to hide them either?  I had 2 friends that shared my due date with me & I watched their bellies grow & the tears in their eyes when they first saw their newborns.  Why?  Who the helll knows.
