TTC After a Loss

Can you believe what this woman said to me?!

So I was in Target today with my friend and her 5 month old Daughter. We were looking at baby stuff and we came across this pacifier that also takes the temp. I commented "that's really cool" and my friend agreed.

Then out of nowhere this old lady starts YELLING at me saying "You don't know anything, don't you think she knows better than you?! She's the one with the baby, NOT you!" WTF!  I almost lost it right there.

    That's RIDICULOUS. People need to keep their mouths shut sometimes. Some people need to keep them shut all the time.

  • oh my god. seriously. wow. a)i totally would've lost it. and b) i probably would've turned to her and said, "well i had a miscarriage and plan on having kids someday soon and i thought it was really neat. exccuuuuuuse me!"

    well i probably wouldn't have done B but i like to think i would've stuck up for myself. i probably would've cried though, right in front of her just to make her uncomfortable.

    i'm sorry honey ((hugs))

    I REALLY wish I said something. After I walked away I thought of plenty of things to say but in the moment I had nothing.  

  • I would assume that she's either senile or had some sort of a stroke. Make sure you watch the news for some old biddie that's missing from her nursing home.

    I'm sorry she said that to you, but i can't imagine it was really "at" you, she's just nuts.

  • I'm guessing she's a total hoarder/cat lady type. Nuttin better to do. I'm sorry people are obnoxious. And in Target of all places. I feel like Target should be sacred!

  • WTF! That lady would have met the back of my hand up close and personal.
  • That is completely insane!  How did she know  you didn't have a baby at home?  not to mention that you don't have to have a baby to think that that paci/thermometer is a good idea.  WTF?
