Are you kidding me?!?!

I've been having a rough day. My oldest is in a lot of trouble for some bad behavior last night at his cousins. He's homeschooled. It's been a long day of "why can't i watch TV...etc" Then my little one comes home from preschool (goes to special ed preschool, although I hope to start homeschooling soon). When he got home the behavior of ods got worse, and neither have been listening. Here's the crud that takes the cake. I go on fb to find that a friend from high school who is expecting her first is having a girl. I just started bawling. I had been having an ok day with disappointment until this moment, and have now back peddled. Why does SHE get a princess (as her SO referred to the baby). It's stupid that I'm furious with this girl for not having any choice in the matter, but every time I turn around it seems like every ftm I know is having a girl, or had one already. I just want to be in a good place. I would deactivate fb, but I have a lot of family out of state who I keep in touch with. Ugh, I'm just bummed and needed to say this somewhere.

I understand...after a long day of boys who won't listen, the idea of someone effortlessly getting your DG is just too much.

I keep FB for the same reasons you do...I just filter it A LOT. All the pregos who are getting PP or my DG or whatever, I block their daily feed. I keep them as friends but don't want the daily chatter....I just can't handle it sometimes.

My girls have behaved terrible lately too so I understand the strain. When you are pregnant everything is amplified. Hang in there and vent all you need to, so many of us understand all too well.

The 3rd of the same gender is a certain bitter blow that is hard to describe. Chances are this baby will own your heart like no other because they challenged your ability to love unconditionally and made you learn more about yourself than you thought you would have to.

My DD3 is my heart and soul. DD1 has bipolar disorder (from my ex-DH) and DD2 has intense ADHD. They are both exhausting and frustrating every.single.day. But DD3 is my rainbow and my joy. Not only is she my total mini-me she is as cute as can be and the sweetest little thing ever.

Hang in there...it will get better in time, I promise. I survived the dark nights and you will too. :bighug:

It really was! It's just plain awful. I need to go through and hide certain feeds ASAP, to avoid this all together. I have a lot of newly married couples who don't have children yet, so there will be more I'm sure.

I feel like they pick up on my negative energy or something, and that is why they are being so aggressive and awful! They have their sweet moments that makes my heart melt, but the other moments tend to drown those out.

Thank you so much for the support and the hugs.
