hates FB (pg mentioned not mine)

EKGibs

I'm seriously thinking about deleting my FB account. It is impossible to unfriend everybody who mentions pregnancy or babies. I hid a girl I go to church with b/c she has a 1 year old & is pg again so she's always posting stuff. then a minute ago my SIL (gotta love those) announces how excited she b/c one of her friends that I'm not fb friends with is pg. my eyes immediately filled with tears. I think I've had a lump in my throat all week b/c of mothers day & this made it all come out. this is the same SIL that makes stupid comments like "I'm not having another baby unless somebody pays for my tummy tuck". I dont care if my stomach hung past my knees if it meant having a healthy baby. ok. vent over.

I'm so sorry you had to see that crap. After my first loss, I deleted my account for a month or so, and it was so, so good for me. Unfortunately, I couldn't stay away.

My newsfeed has been out of control lately, too. I've unsubscribed from pregnant people, newlyweds, and anybody I think could possibly be pregnant any time soon... but sh!t still slips through the cracks. Last night, an ultrasound picture was at the top of my newsfeed, and just now, "Just found out I'm having a precious granddaughter in October!" was right at the top. October 29 is my second EDD, so that one stung.

I've pretty much avoided fb like the plague. I used to just post on sept 2010 and then fb. Now I spend that time here....which is much more enjoyable thanks to you awesome ladies. ((hugs))

Doooooo it! Go off. The grid and deactivate your FB! It has been so, so great. I feel...lighter. I'll go back at some point but for now it feels good to not have to worry whats going. To pop up in my n ews feed and bum me out. It sucks that we have to even consider doing stuff like this though. I hate that loss affects everything we do.

I actually haven't been on FB this am yet. I'm going to try not to check it today & tomorrow & see how that goes. I have limited my time there though. like Megan I spend more time here now & if anybody (newbies who have never posted anything else) posts a preg announcement they pretty much get blasted for it lol

Im so sorry you have to deal with that, I think we all know the feeling all to well. I signed on yesterday and saw an u/s picture of a friends g/f who is only 5 weeks pregnant.  Made me sad!

Ugh. Facebook is so awful! I have thought about deleting mine too, but I just can't stay away.

I unfollowed a few friends and their spouses who are pregnant, but one of them is having a birthday today, so his profile photo popped up in the "Events" window. I have been avoiding seeing his wife's baby bump and FB shoves it in my face! She is due right around the time I would have been due, so she's particularly hard.
