Trouble TTC

OPP Tuesday - babies, pregnancies, possible triggers, and kids mentioned

OPP - other people's pregnancies. Come here to vent about OPPs, or other people's babies, kids, triggers you've had, or even dreams or hypothetical situations that have come up.

Coming up this week (for our newbies out there): WTF Wednesday, and Throat Punch Thursday. We will also have Flame Free Friday Confessions (which ARE flame free on this board), and Furbaby Friday.

Re: OPP Tuesday - babies, pregnancies, possible triggers, and kids mentioned

  • I had a dream last night that I was the new babysitter for a lady who had a litter of 10! In on pregnancy! In fact, when I met her in the dream, she had one last set of twins to deliver. Weird, I know. Anyway, the whole dream was creepy, but that part sucked the most. Stupid fertile dream people.

  • My BFF (bless her heart) has a 3 month old and 20 month old.  Got pregnant very easily both times.  We were talking last night and she says "If I get pregnant again soon, you can have it"

    Ummmm thanks? I'd prefer to carry my own child not raise your cast off

  • @LoveActually55‌, um yikes to both of those.

    I hate when people say stuff like your BFF. First of all, it's like rubbing my nose in her fertility, and second it's always a joke, so why would she want to make light of my infertility? Anyway, sorry you had to put up with her asinine comments.

  • One of the teachers in my high school just hinted that she's KU with #2 after just having #1 last June.  She was going on and on about how her plans are just falling into place and if her luck continues, that she'll be able to have her four in a row with about a year in between like she's always wanted!

    I'm pretty sure my "that's great" sounded a lot more snarky than it should have.

    @LoveActually55‌ all I can say about the comment your friend made is wow. I'm sorry that your friend isn't more sensitive to your situation.

    Ever since Christmas I have been on an emotional roller coaster (more than usual). My cousin announced that she and her bf are pregnant with twins. Although I am happy for them her announcement sent the rest of the family on a Q&A session with my hubby and I. Everyone suddenly wanted to know when we were going to have kids of our own and I absolutely loved the, "You're going to be 30 in a few months, so ya better hurry". Did I miss something that said that 30 is the new 60? People kill me sometimes.

  • @loveactually55 your friend sounds like she could use a filter.

    I've been holding this one in since Sunday morning. A little background, I had a mini meltdown Saturday night when I knew this cycle failed so I may have been a little emotional. So I go to the grocery store Sunday morning, which of course was full of kids and pregnant women. I walk down the one aisle and there is an older woman talking to a younger woman with a 2 yr old girl:

    OW: I have 4 girls.
    YW: 4 girls, wow. Were you trying for a boy?
    OW: Yes, I really wanted boy, girl, boy, girl. I was disappointment.
    YW: Yeah, we wanted her (points to 2 yr old) to be a boy.

    Now I wasn't there for whatever prompted them to start this conversation. From what I could tell they didn't know each other. If I had been there from the beginning I think I would have just leaned myself over and said "some of us would just like to be able to get pregnant" and walked away. Actually, I still regret not saying that.

    Wow. Just....no. (((Hugs)))
