(PIP warning)PSA Why tomorrow will suck on FB

katib77 · March 2013

Just a reminder for those of you ladies that are new to the world of IF or loss this past year...remember tomorrow will probably suck because every.single.year people think it's a funny April Fools joke to try to trick people into thinking they are pregnant. In IF and/or loss, we all know this is not funny. All it does is piss us off. So be warned that this will happen.

There is a pic going around today from some of my IF FB friends (thanks Brooklynpaisley and KatyJ for posting this) that if you want to post might help spread awareness of how absolutely dumb this is....

***This PSA has been brought to you by someone who is about to face their fourth April Fools Joke since TTC***

Last year I was in the 2ww of our 3rd IUI when April Fools hit and every post that joked about it was like a punch to the gut not knowing if that treatment had worked, or not. It obviously did not work, and now having had the c/p from our fourth IUI

I think this is a great post Katib. I will post this on my own FB first thing tomorrow morning. I think the April Fools jokes about pregnancy are just absolutely stupid and in very poor taste.

Thanks for posting this. I'm going to make a mental note to avoid facebook tomorrow....I'm definitely not in the mood for those types of jokes.

And I thought today was rough...I would venture to say that upwards of 90% photos and three quarters of all status updates on my feed were babies and kids in their bunny ears and Easter best. Oh, and yet another pg announcement, but this one stun

Ugh, I definitely saw a few pictures of positive tests last year posted! Annoying. So inconsiderate. I love this picture though and would totally post it, but I don't want to hint to anyone about our IF issues.

Easter was hard enough with a

I've seen this pop up on Fb already. I love it. I posted that April fools is Facebook spring cleaning day so choose your posts wisely.

I hate April fools to begin with as its the anniversary of my dad passing away but paired with insensitiv

DH would be very upset if I posted this on FB, so instead I'm gleefully defriending the unfunny morons who post fake pg announcements. So far it's just a few former high school classmates I couldn't care less about losing, thankfully.

All the more reason to avoid FB today or delete people.

Between this and the great marriage debate, I've deleted a lot of friends lately.

Thanks Kati.

We are *out* of the IF closet on Facebook and I just posted this picture. I've also deleted about five people today because of this.

I think this is the first year in four years I didn't see any posts. I hope that honestly the pic changed anyone's mind of my friend that thought of doing it. (((Hugs))) to anyone that did have to see any.

One of the many reasons why I am glad I have been avoiding FB for the last six months. However, I did hear people at work talking about so and so posting on FB that she was pregnant - it obviously being a joke. Awesome. As if seeing all
