TTC After a Loss

FH at Target (desire to baby snatch ment'd)

I was out doing errands this morning and my last stop was Target. I was standing in line when the baby girl of the lady in from of me started crying. She wasn't throwing a fit, just crying like she wanted to be carried or given attention. She was so cute with her round face, big eyes and cute pigtails! *insert my cold heart melting* Her mom turns around and says, "Shut up baby, nobody wants you." Indifferent It made me angry so I said, "I'll take her off your hands if you don't want her." The lady looked at me like I was out of my mind! Maybe I am. I never would have said anything a few months back. It came out like verbal diarrhea or something! It's so frustrating to know there are women out there who take their kids for granted. I would LOVE to have a screaming kid at Target!

Re: FH at Target (desire to baby snatch ment'd)

  • I am so sorry that happened to you. I hate it when people take their kids for granted. I am sad and jealous when I see people with babies but I am angry when I see people with babies who shouldn't have them. It's just so frustrating. Hugs to you and I'm glad you said something to that lady. Maybe she'll see that what she said was inappropriate.

  • Aww that breaks my heart! Poor cute little baby. What the hell was her mom thinking? What a biatch!! I am sorry you had to witness that. Good for you for saying something. I am not sure I am that brave but I wouldn't be surprised if it came out of my mouth without thinking!

  • What is wrong with people? Seriously. Who would tell their child that nobody wants them. What an awful thing to say.  I'm sorry that happened to you today, but maybe your comment made her think.  Lets hope.  Here's to more FWP soon.

    Because of the great "Snow"vember of 2015, my medicated cycle was cancelled.  However, we were blessed with our little rainbow baby due on 8/14/15!  Baby J had other plans and decided to make his grand ole entrance on 7/4/2015!

    Surprise!  Our little girl entered this world on 12/8/2016 after her eviction notice was long past due.  Our little turkey baby turned into a snow baby!

    Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
  • You are a hero in your own right for saying something!

    my husband has run into soldiers and civilians alike that treat their kids bad in public (sleeper hold on a screaming toddler for example).  luckily, dealing with soldiers he can report it and/or fix it on the spot, it sux that the civilians can do most anything they please and there isnt much to be done about it unless there is physical abuse or neglect.

    THIS!  And *standing ovation* for your comment!!!  Maybe it'll make her think twice!  I have very nasty, mean names I could call her right now.  I think if more of us stood up for the children that deserve better, and the women who want and hope for so much more the world would be a much better place!
