Could have lost it today at a lady in Walmart

sn0216 · November 2009

Today in the parking lot at walmart I seen a lady and she had to be 8 or 9 months along and was chain smoking. It made me so mad. Heres this lady smoking and she gets to keep her baby, and I don't. Shes in the parking lot arguing with her mother and her kids are in the car screaming. I had to really fight myself not to say anything to this lady instead when we walked by I said to my mom" I hope she is just fat" (but clearly she wasn't). Things like that bugged me before but now they just make me so mad, why do they get their babies and people like us don't. It didn't help that today I finally got my first period. Man life sucks sometimes.

Hope you guys are all hanging in there.

Literally JUST had the same conversation with my boyfriend today. It wasn't to the same degree, but a pregnant friends facebook status made me so mad (I already told about this as a response to someone elses topic, but it just made me so mad I have to repeat it in this one). . . she found out the sex of her baby and it's a girl, but she wanted a boy. She actually had the nerve to complain about it! I know it's not nearly as bad as chain smoking while pregnant, but still, if you're lucky enough to be pregnant with a healthy baby, shouldn't that thrill you enough to not care about the gender? I hadn't told any of my friends about either of my pregnancies or miscarriages, so I didn't feel comfortable commenting on it, but I really wanted to just tear her a new one.

That happened to me at a gas station. A girl was smoking outside the door, and she too, was pretty far along. It just made me sick. It does suck.

I couldn't agree with you more. I know I shouldn't compare myself to others or feel sad about what they have, but I do. My brother and SIL are unfit parents, but they have four kids. My other brother cannot afford the two he has, but he sure does have them. His girlfriend is morbidly obese, high blood pressure, and uncontrolled diabetes. I really do like her very much, but she makes me angrier than anyone. If anyone should have problems having a baby, it should be her. Why can she get an "oops" baby, but I can't keep mine. Why can she get pregnant and have a beautiful pregnancy, but I can't. I don't understand the logic behind any of this.
