a new breed of FH?

in TTC After a Loss 6 Months+

I'm not sure if this is a rare sighting or if some of you have had a similar encounter?  It is a mom of a FH.

Let me give you some background.  I am hosting a baby shower for my SIL for my side of the family.  One of my cousins is due around the same time and is a huge FH.  To the point that she wouldn't talk to me in person like I was contagious or something.  My DH and I decided to tell the extended family after my third loss to hopefully control some FH-ness and who knows, extra prayers can't hurt.  

Well my Aunt is ridiculous.  After my gma died she tried to comfort me by talking about how exciting it is that my SIL is pregnant.  That made me cry more!  She just rsvp-ed to the baby shower.  She is so bummed because my cousin/her daughter is in a wedding that day and can't come.  My aunt really would have liked a picture of their bellies together.  I flicked off my computer when I read the email.  Ha!

Another other spottings of FH mothers/grandmothers??

    Ugh! That's so aggravating.  As a matter of fact, I do know a FH mother!  This lady teaches at my school and her daughter and I both got pg about the same time.  Well, I lost mine and she kept hers.  This mom had a very late loss herself, so you'd think she'd get it, but all she can talk about is her pg daughter!  She'll come up to me and ask stuff like, did I see the nursery pictures on her fb?  No, because I've hidden them both!  I'm dreading when the baby is actually born and I have to hear all about that.

    Double ugh for you!  Not only are you dealing with a FH mom but she should know better and is basically rubbing it in your face!  I'm sorry.

    That's a new one - so far I haven't encountered that special breed and I hope I never do!

    My stepmom is the mother of a FMH (fertile man ho). 

    I cannot even begin to tell you the things she's said to me regarding FMH's FH baby mama.

    My MIL is kind of like this.  She has to tell me of every fricking relative, even the super distant ones that not even Dh knows, that is expecting.  Then she calls to update us when the baby is born and when the baby reaches a milestone.  It's so bad that I won't answer the phone when she calls, if I know the message on the answering machine is from her I won't listen and I don't open any letters or cards from her, I make DH do it and then he can screen them for me.  I didn't even read my B-day card from her because apparently there was FH stuff even in there, Dh just gave me the $10 she gave me.

    This kind of made me laugh... sorry.  All of the secret codes and male ho's.  I'm sure it is not funny to live with though.

    I know a fh grandma who continues to talk about her twin grandsons who were just born, telling me all about them when she knows about my loss.
