Worst comment ever...
Ok well not the worst, but certainly the worse I heard yesterday.
Let me preface this by saying that by 8pm last night I was cranky, whiney and exhuasted. We had two appts yesterday and an OT appt (at our house) that I totally forgot about until the therapist texted me to say she was outfront and I wasn't answering. Luckily I was only 5 minutes away and she was able to wait for me...
But anyway, I had my grandmother with me yesterday to help with the twins (grandmother does not drive, lives with my mother), I had to take my grandmother home because my mom said she did not feel like coming by on her way home to get her and DH was still at work. My mom commented that I a looked really tired, to which agreed, then came the comment....
"I bet you'd think twice now before putting two eggs back !"
Seriously? Seriously? I just glared at her and said, "Um actually I'd make the same choice all over again, but thanks."
I mean really after all these two have been through and all of the energy it takes to care for them, yes its stressful yes I think I am entitled to be tired once in awhile, but I would do it all over again. These babies are worth every single moment.
Re: Worst comment ever...
You know comments like that make me cut people off from information. Act like an a$$ and you're not going to find out too much about what's happening with me and my family.
I'm sorry. That was a really hurtful comment.
What a bonehead comment.
I would have said, "I guess that means you are sad you have 2 grandchildren? I'll be sure to remember that."
Man, I am snarky these days. Hopefully I get some good news today or tomorrow that puts me in a better mood. Until then snark snark snarkity SNARK

We'll miss you sweet Debbie Girl (4.21.12) and sweet Cindy Girl (8.9.12)
You aren't the only one...if it makes you feel better...your snark made me smile!
Katie your snark is making me smile too!
JakesBride...what an awful comment. Your twins are such perfect miracles!
Our precious girl, born at 27 weeks.
This exactly.
She sounds like my mother. ((Hugs))
I would have been furious! I thought you handled it well because she's lucky you didn't say something just as hurtful back because no matter how tired you get there are no regrets, these babies are a blessing. It seems like just because of the struggles we went through it took away any rights we may have to complain which is BS. Just because another mom who has twins (or a single birth for that matter) had no problems getting ku'd or had no complications with the birth does not mean she's allowed to be tired and comment on it but we're not. We're allowed to have the same days just as any other parent.
I'm so sorry you had to hear that very insensitive comment.
