All I had to do was look at who the OP was to know what post you were talking about.
My thoughts?
Well I guess she hates my DH then, because he's worked his f*cking a$$ off to get to where he is today as a highly trained MD. And, oh, he helps to diagnose the worst of the worst in women's and perinatal pathology...the kind of doctor that we all hope and pray that we never will have to have contact with, but his training qualifies doctors in his field to give women like us some answers!....GRRRRRRR. Of course she doesn't even know that that side of medicine exists because she is so perfect.
Make me stay over here, Jules. I need to be sat on!

So I guess this would not be appropriate then?
...
"I am sick of the ugly nasty runny sh*t that is constantly spewing out of your mouth. Many of us get that you are a health nut, you went on a cleanse before you got pregnant, you are in Zen tune with your body and your baby, which is why you felt your penny-weight LO moving around inside you at 12 weeks. Ultrasounds and dopplers are dangerous and harmful to babies, so just one u/s will do. Oh, and you don't need the assistance of any hospital personnel when you deliver, nor does anyone else, because it's all going to turn out f*cking fantastic. I am sure your LO's first words will be, "Momma, I love you and Daddy so much." on the anniversary of his/her third month on this Earth.

This looks like a Flame Free Friday Confession.... Id save it for tomorrow. Im still sick, and Im certain Ill be in bed all day, so I posted what I did knowing it would ruffle some feathers (but also because its true). I was cheering when I read Froggys post..... it could be an interesting Thursday afterall!
....edit.... duplicate post
....edit..... duplicate post..... (Guess my computer was just excited about what I had to say!)
I liked your post, too. I wish that we weren't all so bitter, but that's the way it is, I guess.
I am only coming over here to vent....I most certainly did not and would not post that to her. I can be moody, but I know what I said is mean, which is why I laid it out in confidence here.
I have to let out the fruststration somewhere, so I gave props to Froggy's post with my fav gif.

I wouldnt call us bitter, just realistic. So many woman suffer from miscarriages, fertility issues, or other medical issues that make pregnancy a long hard road. I dont think there is anything wrong with telling those that have that perfect pregnancy that it isnt like that for the majority of women every once in a while.

Totally butting in, but this is really funny. I'm still giggling.
Hadley, you can actually post a FFFC to that effect, you just need to put it in third person and more generic terms. If people flame you, then you get to claim that you though it was flame free!

Okay, I had to add something about the NT scans, but I thought that the way I worded it was very nice.

You were very nice about your NT scan post... I almost missed it! We arent getting one... but its because we know what we are at risk for and we know what the drs suggestion will be. (Trisomy 18 and to terminate the pregancy)
I respect people's decision to get it done, were we at a higher risk for DS our opinion might change. I try to stay out of the debate on that board but when people ask if we are getting it done I tell them no and why. Did you see the gal that had the bad NT scan (1/6 chance of DS) and rachaelski said something to the effect of "if you dont feel right raising a child with special needs than its okay to terminate the pregnancy. Being a parent means making the hard decisions and sometimes that means deciding to not be a parent."
Oh, yes, I did see that you elected not to have the NT scan, and I completely understand and respect that. When it comes down to it, you have to do what you think is right for you and your family. The scan doesn't create the results, it only detects/reads them, so I agree that they are really not necessary. DH really didn't want us to do it at first (we did/are doing sequential screening), but we both wanted that extra ultrasound, so we are trying not to put stock into what the dang genetic counselor says. We are both completely against diagnostic screening (again, completely fine for others if they choose to do it and I will support them if they do, but it's not for us).
And no, I didn't see that Rachaelski had said that to that poor woman suffering over bad NT scan results. I think I am truly tired and done with that crazy woman. She really ruffles my feathers in the worst way.

Just FYI....if your dr "suggests" termination, it may be time to find another dr. Our doctors never "suggested" anything to us. Rather they laid the facts out on the table, gave us our options (and risks associated with each of the options), and let us make the decision. There was no "suggestion" one way or another.
I would have been appalled had they made a suggestion to us (carry to term or terminate) either way.

I agree. Having to make the kind of decision (whether to terminate or not) is something that no one should have to go through though some unfortunately do, and an opinionated doctor would be terrible!

I agree, it wasn't me and I would have gotten multiple opinions. She got multiple opinions from doctors at the best hospital within a 200 mile radius and they all said the same thing (but they were all from the same hospital). I just think that the decision to get an NT scans need to be up to the parents individually and that other people should just respect whatever decision others make. I do love seeing when people have great NT scans...... I love happy healthy babies :-)
I'll always respect an informed decision. But when I see posts like "Oh I don't want to get the NT scan" because:
-it can't tell you anything with accuracy (wrong)
-I would never terminate for DS (just one of the many things they look for)
-my friend got it and her doctors told her she should terminate because she had a 1:100 risk for Txx (seriously? then she should sue)
-there's such a high rate of false positives (uh, no there isn't; look up what a "false positive" ACTUALLY is)
-I'm at low risk for xxxx (yeah, so are most people who have bad outcomes at the NT scan)
- (and my personal favorite): it's not going to change anything...I'll love this baby regardless (really? then you don't understand all what an NT scan does)
-I will just wait for the anatomy scan (actually, there's things that can't be detected at the a/s, and can only be detected earlier on)
....then I do a massive ::head-desk:: for people not informing themselves about what the test ACTUALLY does do and does not do.
