In my heart, I'm expecting a kitten.

I wouldn't be able to pull back from this relationship gracefully. I would feel the need for some sort of confrontation. Did she really just seriously ask you for your baby things - when you're pregnant? And given everything you're going through? That's like grandchildren walking through their alive-and-kickin' grandparents' house calling "dibs" on the furniture.

It sounds like you have been close to her - you were her MOH and you did host a fabulous shower. She needs to know that her behavior - and her behavior alone - is the reason you don't want to associate with her.

I wouldn't even bring up what was said about your shower. That could go he said/she said really fast. I would stick to this really majorly awful thing.

Ughh what an ugrateful self absorbed brat!! She will have a reality shock when her child is born and things are no longer all about her! So sorry you had to stress about that! Xoxo

Wow. First off let me say I'm sorry for everything you are going through. I think you're a great friend that you managed to throw an awesome baby shower for your friend despite dealing with your own stressful situation. And to that friend: WTF? So what if you were sitting down and looking like you were wanting to nap? She's pregnant! She should know how it is! (I'm pretty sure that's how I always look, btw). You have a reason and then some to be taking it easy.
I'm a little confused as to why she wants your DS's clothes since you are going to be having a baby before her next baby. Unless you know you're having a girl, it very well could be a boy. Did I miss something? Is she just assuming you won't have a baby? Because if that's the case that's royally effed up.

*edit for typo*
Thanks for the reply. I have no idea what I'm having. All she knows is there is a chance that mine won't have a happy ending. I am so confused at how she could be so rude.

Yeah ok. I'd probably just throat punch her.

Yeah, this.

Totally this^^^

I would confront her about the shower and about what you heard...not in a mean way, if possible. Maybe something got lost in translation and maybe she was actually saying she left early because you needed to rest or whatever. Maybe she wasn't mad.

As for the request for boy stuff, wtf? What kind of cray cray hoarder does that? No, you don't get to use this pregnancy as an excuse to collect stuff for future babies you may or may not have. That's just weird.

All of this. My thoughts exactly.

And also, she's assuming she'll have a boy next?

You did a really awesome thing putting on a baby shower for your friend.

I could let the bitchy shower comment slide. But to ask for your baby things that you still need? THAT SHE DOESN'T NEED!?! On the assumption that your pregnancy may have a poor outcome?!? **falls out of chair from shock** This makes me rage. How incredibly insensitive.

Big ((hugs)) to you.

I actually read through the whole thread. It made this happen:

Seriously I am thinking ALL of the swears right now. You threw a wonderful shower, that headband idea is SO cute!! And then she made insensitive snarky comments about you looking tired and that's SUCH BS!! And the asking for clothes thing is just the absolute last straw. I've dealt with friends who can be all about themselves on occasion, and taking a nice long break from her sounds like the best thing you can do.

And I am so sorry to hear about everything you are going through. You and your LO will be in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you have a healthy fantastic baby who is WAY CUTER THAN HERS.
