@lizlann havent heard anything about seeds. But literally anything my ku coworker and I do or ingest they're like, "oh, can you eat/do that?" Yes, yes I can lol
Today one of the boys in our caf asked if I could have Chinese food... I was like... yes dear, but that broccoli is BURNED TO A CRISP, so I'm passing on it.
I shouldn't snark, they have been SO GOOD to me; they go out of their way to be accommodating, and will make me anything that sounds like it will stay down.
We found out our baby has a rare kidney/bladder birth defect at my A/S. My pregnancy is now considered high risk. We were talking with DH's family about it over Easter. When my DH's grandma left to head home, she hugged me and said, "Don't worry, honey, pregnancy is easy". WTF? I still can't figure out what she meant by that.
Hey! Just catching up on the board to see this. Hope everything is as ok as it can be! Sounds like a stressful time, and grandma didn't help at all!! Bleh! Sorry you're going through this!
My coworker comes over to me this morning and says "Hey did you know you can use your HSA money to pay for an abortion?" WTF!?!
Who in the hell says that to a pregnant woman? Especially when you know that woman spent years and thousands of dollars undergoing fertility treatments just to get pregnant.
@JNR6510 I would totally complain about that. That's such an inappropriate thing to say, and really an inappropriate workplace topic in general! What a asshat.

What in the actual f*ck......
That is grounds for a throat punch. Or at least a complaint to HR if that is applicable. Thinking of all the women who are PGAL and have struggled with infertility and comments like this make my blood boil. What an *arsehat.
Edited to remove foul language because I feel like I'm on some weird bump watch cause they keep changing my username.
I have no idea why the lady thought it was appropriate to say. Her son is having a kid in the next 6 weeks too! Who expects a grandma to say such things?
Y'all. I'm in shock. I was at a public meeting this afternoon for work, and a lady member of one of the boards here came up to me and said "are you pregnant again?" Let me first say that we are not friends, me and this lady, and I may have talked to her a handful of times in the past few years. So, I say "no, I'm just eating a lot lately." Ok so she comes in my office and says "How many do you have already?" Ummmmm none of your business, but I have one child. So she then says, "Don't you think that's enough?" WTF! So I said, "well actually, no!" Then she asks if I planned this one, or if it was an oops? None of your business! She then asks "so are you planning on stopping after this one?" NONE OF YOUR EFFING BUSINESS!! Her final response, "no need to overpopulate the world." Like I said, I'm just still in shock. I needed to vent to you guys because I know when I get home and tell DH, he'll tell me I shouldn't care what other people think, blah blah. But dang.
@iheartichi I literally had someone ask me if I just like trying to get pregnant or if I actually want "that many kids" I was like "hold on Sherlock, before you crack this mystery... when did two kids become 'that many'" I really need to stop being hostile... but during my first pregnancy I was passive this time... I give people way more hell lol I also hate being asked where I conceived this child... i now answer, immaculate conception... I know I wasn't expecting God to choose me as Mary part 2. Like where do you get the gall to ask these questions?!?!
@klcarr19 I'm one of these people who think of what to say like 10 minutes after I wish I would have said it! Please pass that gift along to me! And when did 2 become so many!? Ugh. People suck.
@iheartichi I've always been quit witted but I have a very good filter... this pregnancy however has made me realize if you ask me dumb questions or say stupid things... you don't deserve my respectful filter... haha
It seems a lot of you ladies who are on #2 have gotten nasty comments about having too many babies. What the hell? And when the comment comes from somebody with more than you have, give me a break. Projecting, are we? Sorry you're unhappy with your choices, but no need to take it out on the pregnant lady.
A part of me kind of wishes I was getting these kinds of comments. I wouldn't hesitate to put someone in their place. But then I have no filter.
