Letting the steam out of my ears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Baldie's Mum]

Hi all,

went around to DH's friends house for dinner last night. They have DS #1 who is 3 and DS#2 still cooking. The mother (remains annon) just looked at her hubby and fell preg, with both kids. When she was trying she tried for a girl...so a few months down the track she has her ultra sound. She found out she was having another boy. ( this is where it gets VERY FRUSTRATING):mad:

so she cried and cried and cried...I want a girl. She even went as far as saying i am just not excited about this baby any more! :eek:

So last night i was telling her about how i have to go on provera to start my periods, (wait for it......) she looked at me and said. "maybe this is a sign you shouldnt have kids"

***********CALM EVERYONE************

I TOOK THIS COMMENT VERY WELL. i LET IT ROLL OFF MY BACK!

What a bitc* :mad:

Wow........ sorry just had to get it out. Hubby just cuddled me and said it will be ok we will have chn. dont worry about her.:ecomcity:

OMG! :shame: What a rude thoughtless woman. I am so sorry you had that said to you... :hugs:

You most definitely are going to be a mumma- and a wonderful one at that :hugs:

Good on you for letting it roll off your back... not sure I would have been so restrained :devil6:

[Baldie's Mum]

I had to, there is no point letting her get to me. She doesn't like the fact that i am 10 years younger than her and know just as much about chn as she does (sometimes more) because i worked in childcare and now i work with autistic chn.

I HOPE SHE DIDNT CURSE ME THOUGH

:hugs: No one can do that to you babe. Just (try lol) to not let her get to you too much- she isn't worth it. :no: :hugs:

Being someone who cried when I found out I was having another boy, that part I do understand. I was devastated when I found out I was going to have 3 boys and only 1 girl.

But the comment about "maybe this is a sign you shouldnt have kids"............that's just not on!!! No one has the right to say that. :hugs:

My jaw just hit the ground!!!! How completely selfish and insensitive.
I can kind of relate. I brought up the subject of IVF with my boss a few days ago. I've just had some negative results back from my first Lap (Me and Hubby TTC for 2 years) and it's looking like IVF is going to be the way we have to go. His reply, "that's no big Deal! Heaps of women go through IVF. No biggie". What an AHOLE!!!!
I had to brush it off...he is a man after all! But for a female friend to come and tell someone TTC that she's not excited about her pregnancy (EEEEIIIKKKK!!!) and that maybe you shouldn't have kids I just can't fathom????

I cant believe the nerve of some women! She should be happy with whatever she has as long as the baby is healthy! Some people just dont know how lucky they are to be blessed with healthy pregnancies and healthy children. And to fall pregnant easily is such a blessing in itself. I get very down about not being able to fall pregnant easily but I thank god every night before I go to sleep that he blessed me with my gorgeous son.

You are a very strong woman to let that comment roll off your back. You should be very proud of yourself! :yelclap:

And your DH is right, you WILL have children and just because you are having trouble conceiving that does NOT mean you should not have children it just means that when you finally get blessed with your own kids you will appreciate them a whole lot more than your stupid Bitc* "friend".

:hugs:

It's a pity you can't slap a pregnant woman :mad: :devil6:

[JATS]

I know the sort of person you are talking about all too well. Those who just take it for granted that they can have kids whenever they want them.

There's nothing I can say, just that you're right, definatly an insensitive b!tch. You don't need people like that in your life.:no:

[Dangerkitty]

I have heard that too! Even though it only took us 8 months to get pregnant, a few people said "Maybe God is telling you you're not meant to be a mother" I wanted to punch them! And when we started talking about the 1 year mark and looking into fertility options, we got so much sh*t from people I couldn't even handle it!

Its a good thing we fell pregnant when we did, or I might have punched some people!

Oh the joys of other peoples opinions! We just let it go, move on. We know what we desire and it's none of their business!

It kills me how once youre trying to get pregnant, or are pregnant, everyone is a specialist, midwife or doctor.... wait maybe thats just my MIL.....:laughing:
