"Your future child."

BoonhildeBoonhilde member
in June 2016 Moms
Came on here to check my weekly fruit. 3 weeks = poppyseed! Then I got the downer description:

"The ball of cells is splitting into the embryo (your future child) and placenta."

Excuse me. 1. I KNOW what an embryo is! Holy cow. 2. "Your future child." Really? So... whose child is he/she now? Or are they trying to say my child isn't human yet? As a woman who has lost two unborn humans, yeah, I take offense to that. 

I'm wholeheartedly annoyed, to the point where I'm trying to find a "contact us" link.

    "Your future child." Either the child is not mine right now but will be in the future, or the child isn't a child until the future. Neither needs to be stated on a pregnancy website.

    You know what I'm learning? If something like this can make me THIS upset, maaaaaaaaaaaybe I'm not entirely ready to be back here at TheBump. I left in June because I lost my baby and couldn't take these boards, and I'm not sure I can yet.

    So, thank you for your comment. I hope to see all of you in a few months, when, hopefully, I can not be angry. I'm not usually angry, and I don't like being angry. I was just so angry! 

    Aaahhhhh. Good times. Anyway, see you later ladies!

    OMG. Did I just do a "good-bye cruel TheBump.com" post? You ladies will really have to forgive me.

    DISCLAIMER: I might come back, and be less angry, say, tomorrow, but right now I'm realizing I'm still pretty touchy about my loss, and I know I'm not the only one here who's suffered one, or even recently suffered one. I hope the other ladies in similar situations have an easier, less angry, time of it. ;)

    Hugs to you. It's okay to be angry, and take all the time you need. TheBump isn't going anywhere. Best wishes!

    It's totally understandable to be angry. Grief has no timeline! I hope that your healing process goes as smoothly as possible from here on out. The BMB will still be here when you're ready for it! <3

    @Boonhilde I am sorry that made you so upset. I am certain the intention was not to make anyone feel like it did to you. Hugs to you. And sorry for your loss.
