Why is the first thing people ask when they find out your pregnant is "was it planned?" Wtf! Does it freaking matter! Let's try congratulations. When's your due date? How are you feeling? All appropriate questions. Whether I took my temp every day or had one to many to drink one night. None of your business and beside the point now. Geez.
Re: Monday B*tchfest 1/22
cograts I get weird about it. Because I want to shout this wasn’t what we planned! I was on birth control.
Am am I happy now- yes. Would I change things- no. But still I wouldn’t have chosen to have another - because DD is so MUCH to handle . And plus $$$
My BF- on the day im in downtown looking forward to a churro from the shrimp stand nearby and it’s closed! Also, i hate tax season!
People are idiots.
"Well can’t say you didn’t try... hope you took the news better then I did with my third"
"This is why I stopped at 3 girls
I just don't get it. Do people really think we played a game and lost? Why do people take pity on my for having four boys? I love my family and wouldn't trade my boys for anything in the world. I just wanted to tell them to STFU. Maybe I'm being overly sensitive.
EDIT - the bump cut my post off.
**poss TW**
After I put in 2 months notice at work, my boss asked if I had a MC if I would still want my job..... **TW** People are fucking stupid and offensive and don't understand their comments are shitty.
Edited to add that I left that job 2 weeks later.
My pregnant friends are both having girls and they are singing the praises of all things girl and how wonderful they are. I’m worried that I’m going to be disappointed if its a boy just because of their gloating for so long. And that’s stupid because I really wouldn’t be disappointed with a boy.
@lindsayleigh1989 I've been so dry and itchy this time around. I could take a bath in lotion. Lucky I don't run out much because I might have a slight addiction to bath and body works and am ashamed to say how much I have.
@hillbillywife i kind of understand how you feel. Everyone wants this to be a boy because my oldest is a girl. I honestly don't care either way, but I am a little afraid to have a boy. I feel like I don't know what to do with them and will not dote on them as much. My daughter is real girly and it just comes naturally. I know it will be fine when he got here, just an irrational pregnancy fear.
Why are you sharing these stories with me?! I'm already an anxious person by nature and add these new hormones...insensitivityyyyyyy!
When she found out I was pregnant? Her first comment after congratulations was “I knew you were when you made that rude comment to me.” People are just clueless and rude.
I like to make people uncomfortable and make a comment about our loss last spring when people ask if we were trying. I know most mean well, but some people just don’t think sometimes.
My mom asked me this weekend if I was taking my prenatals and if I’ve gained any weight. What??
some people just suck
why I’m super witchy today.
I had a sick 5 year old last week Saturday to Wednesday. My husband was sick Friday to today. They both had fevers. Maybe the flu not sure. But what does my daughter do at 6:45 in the morning? Puke all over me. I don’t want to play nursemaid anymore. I’m exhausted from taking care of everyone. I have also been sleeping on the couch since DH has been been quarantined to our room. And my back just wants my tempurpedic bed.
@samjjorgensen that is awful and she sounds like a horrendous human being!
I also got a really random comment this weekend. I attended my friend's sister in law's baby shower. She is expecting twins. My friend traveled from Florida to be here. She invited her half sister to the shower too (like, why? But whatever) who I had met a few months ago. This girl likes to make people uncomfortable. She always comes up with the most random comments. Everyone at this shower was saying how I wasn't showing yet and they couldn't tell I was pregnant (I'm always very careful about making those comments too, but whatever, I didn't mind as much). Then here comes my friend's sister..."I'm sorry to tell you but you're gonna get biiiiiig". I wan like...ok, based on what psychic ability are you saying this?
I shook it off and said "well, I'm growing a human, I'm trying to stay healthy and that's more important than how much weight I put on". Did I mention she is severely overweight... anyways...when I said goodbye after the shower she had the guts to say " can't wait for your baby shower, let me know when it is". Really??? I really hope my friend doesn't bring up inviting her because I'm definitely going to veto!
@KellyFM522 same here! but they started with the puking and my DD is 2. I'm the only one who never fully got it - 3 days of horrible indigestion but nothing violent. BE STRONG.
My BF is about my MIL. She drives me freaking nuts (so not looking forward for her to know i'm pregnant). We went out to hibachi on Saturday and couldn't understand why my FIL, husband, and I were all telling her to back off when my kid wanted to watch "the fishy movie" and we told her she had to wait until we got home but MIL kept trying to get us to find it on someone's phone. She literally had to leave the table because she "couldn't handle" (her words) the toddler crying for 3 min....
