I know! I don't usually reply to drama posts or things like that but I was really confused when she implied that because her husband was serving our country it wasn't appropriate to answer honestly when she asked if she was being bratty. Don't really get the correlation. Apparently honest = unpatriotic?

I said that because someone told me that we weren't ready for a baby... I was just letting you know that we both have steady incomes. Why don't you guys grow up and stop gossiping about people?
I'm assuming you are talking about me? Appreciate it!
oh- there you are!
Why pull the military card? I seriously feel for your current situation b/c I'm in the exact same spot... but then you pull the "my husband serves you and your country" crap so I guess we should all bow down...
Sorry- it just pissed me off... and then you go and delete the thread? What a way to tuck tail and run away...
Oh wow...i was searching for the post to reply again and was wondering what happened to it? I never seen that happen before, it really wasn't that serious to go to such extremes.

Gossiping? Wouldn't that imply we were doing it behind your back? B/c we're not... we're doing it to your face.

I highly doubt you are in the 'exact same spot'... you have no idea what my life is like... Just so you know.
And I love that she kept saying "I'm probably being a brat" even though it was totally clear that she a) didn't believe for one second that she was misbehaving or being ungrateful and b) she only wanted to read responses that confirmed these beliefs. Don't ask questions you aren't prepared to hear the answers to. And yes for the record you came off in that post like a spoiled rotten entitled little princess.
She asked in she was being a brat (her words) because her Inlaws werent paying to help out with the baby. Honestly she was being a little bratty and people called her out on it. She didnt like that and after after saying "well, my DH is in the military" (um,, ok??) she DD'd.
Look, people. I'm gonna put my two cents in, 'cause that's just how nosy I am.
Let's get over ourselves here and rise above the stereotypical bitchy pregger woman thing, okay? Life is hard enough for us all right now without us tearing each other apart. Let's be big, mature people and get over it, okay?
*steps off soapbox and frolics. . .okay, waddles. . .away*
I'm assuming you are talking about me? Appreciate it!
Why did you delete it? What's the big deal here?
I deleted it because I'm an adult and was over it.
That is not what I call being an adult. I agreed with you that it sucks-but what are you going to do about it? Nothing. ILs will always treat their own daughters with larger kid gloves and baby them more. That is why your father does that for you. Many of us are in your same boat. But it doesn't have to be a sinking one.

A word to the wise - Deleting a post is not usually looked upon with favor around here. The acceptable modification is to edit it and put "ETA" or to respond... but to just delete? No, no, noooo!

Okay... I'm sorry for hurting your e-feelings. I guess no one else will ever understand your life. So why come on this board and ask us about it if you didn't want our opinions or advice?
le sigh... too bad you can't delete this post, huh?

I wasn't gossiping, was genuinely curious what military service had to do with the responses you didn't like and was hoping someone could shed some light. At least you've attempted to answer my question, thank you.

My parents and ILs aren't paying for anything and um, my husband was in the military and it definitely didn't entitle me to special treatment from strangers or family! As our general's wife loved to tell us during deployments, "Girl, it's time to put your big girl panties on and deal with it!"
I'm assuming you are talking about me? Appreciate it!

I know! I was going to reply then couldn't find it. I was just going to say that your IL's might pitch in after LO comes. Maybe it'll become more real to them once LO is in their arms.

No... her original postwould have been well enough left alone eventually... but I am a stereotypical bitchy "pregger" woman and I can comment on her asinine comments.

Hi way to get it wrong.. my parents have put in over $1000 into this baby on their own. I would just like for my ILs to comprehend that they are going to have a grandchild. I never said that being a military wife gave me special privileges, I said that we both have incomes.

Really? My inlaws have done squat for my baby and I just figure, oh well. I don't expect anything from anyone except myself and my husband.

I get what you're saying, but it is annoying when people make a post like this, don't like the responses they receive, and DD. She made it worse on herself by DD'ing...
Wow, I try to get some work done for 5 minutes and I miss all the fun part... I never made it to the 'military' part, anyway, deleting is not at all what an adult does.
Re: Damned it! She DD'd before I could post!!
"You're gonna miss this You're gonna want this back You're gonna wish these days hadn't gone by so fast..."
She was just a spoiled brat with an overinflated sense of entitlement.
Using her husband's military service as an excuse for her behavior was over the top.

Adults shouldn't have to hide in fear from speaking before thinking.

Be like a duck.
Adults don't delete. And stop gossiping about it? Are you sure you are an adult? Who says that? You made things ten times worse by deleting.

Really? because it's comming off more like you're a baby who didnt get the responses you wanted to you deleted it.

I think this sums it up.
