To add to the SIL rants :)

in Pregnant after a Loss
DH and I spent the day with his family yesterday and our SIL who is due two weeks before me with the baby I lost was there. I am now ok with seeing her, I just try as hard as possible to not think that I should be as pregnant as she is. Well she came right up to me and said, 'You are so lucky you are just a few weeks pregnant and not super pregnant like me because the heat is killing me!' I was so close to punching her in the throat! WTH is wrong with people?!?!

    I'm sorry she is so self absorbed and said that. I would have replied back with something snide to make her feel uncomfortable about you're loss and her comment. Some people just don't think before they speak. I hope your day gets easier.

    OH HELL NO!!!!  I'm sorry, that was so insensitive of her.  I hope she realized it and never says anything like that again.  If she does, she needs her throat punched and she needs to be put in her plac by you or DH!!!

    I am so sorry you had to deal with your SIL being an IDIOT. Some people really don't think and that's definitely insensitive. Throat Punching would have been hard not to do.

    Does she know about your loss? If not, then it sounds like a sigh-worthy comment. If so, then that was an absolutely thoughtless and cruel thing to say. I'm sorry. :-(

    Yes she knows about my loss. If she didn't I could have easily brushed this off but I seriously keep wondering what the heck is wrong with her.
