Re: april fools jokes...

  • Ugh, I haven't come across one of these yet.  If I do, I might just be crazy enough to say something (or at least defriend immediately)!

  • Today is the actual anniversary of my miscarriage, one year ago to the day-- so yeah, I effing HATE April Fools pregnancy jokes. :-(

    The worst part is, when my husband and I had been dating for a few years, I actually sent him a text on April Fool's telling him I was pregnant as a joke. Now, it pains me so much to think that *I* even joked about that. It was so devastating to have it actually happen on that day, especially after that hideous prank I had played on him years earlier. 

    It makes me recognize that most women (or men) have absolutely no clue-- and never will have a clue-- unless they have to go through this agony themselves. :-(

Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." -- Frank Herbert
  • Thank god I'm not the only one who thought this today!!! They all think they're so effing funny, don't they? I think the post I hated the most was a friend who's actually pregnant joking that they're pregnant with twins. Laugh it up, guys, laugh it up. Ugh, I hate them all today.

I have had to stay off fb today.

  • One friend just posted this evening.  I clicked on the comments but while it was loading in my head I thought " I may have to unfriend/block her."  The is a woman who has 2 kids, the 2nd is just under a year and has complained quite a bit about problems with that child.  If she was really pregnant with number 3 I was seriously going to block her.  I couldn't handle all that crap right now.  Talk about not fair.  

    We aren't close so it isn't even like she'd notice me unfriending her.  

  • I almost want to post my status as "I had a miscarriage and that is NOT a joke, so please stop joking that you're pregnant."

    My cousin who is 19 or 20 and had 2 kids in the span of 13 months had the nerve to post fake (well, from last year) pregnancy tests.

  • Same situation for me... I'm sitting here in tears because my fb friend posted her very real pregnancy and her due date is the same as what mine should have been... I've been doing really well but this just hit me so hard..

  • OMG! I couldn't agree more with you.  They're not funny one bit.  It was very, very upsetting to see that people thought something like that would be a funny joke.  I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who was angry!
