I had to go to the shops Today & I was carrying Felix in a wrap. An old lady asked how old he was & then asked if he was a boy or a girl. I said a boy & she looked at Eamon & said "Oh ANOTHER boy, I bet you were disappointed, TWO boys" and I said "Actually I have THREE boys, the eldest one is at school & I couldn't be LESS disappointed if I tried. They're wonderful." And she said - and I am not joking - that she would have shot herself if she had 3 boys.

What a f**king old witch. Tell her to piss off and die, the miserable crone.sorry, just makes me so mad!!:hair:
I bet she's a lonely old git. She'd have shit a brick if she knew I had 5 the same lol
Kitkat my 9 year old (DD2) is besotted with the baby the others love her but she's the one who wants to look after her, and goes on about how cute she is lol
Must be something about all of us bcos she's very windy too. I'm back to 95% breastfeeding after all the drama at the start. It still hurts for a few seconds then is ok. Not sure why?
Omg!!!!! I would have gone totally batshit crazy on her! What a horrible disgusting thing to say. I probably would have retorted with something like her kids would be better off then (if she shot herself) Haha! Yup i am horrible!Quote:

Awesome BF has worked out for you, probably just your nipples getting use to your babies latch?
Primal I would have been so mad what a horrible horrible cow. Sounds you handled the situation really well I would have wanted to swear at her!!!
Really people like that don't deserve our time at all.
Big hugs!
What are you ladies doing to treat the wind? Xx
Omg, I would of lost it if I were you. Why do people think they can say such hurtful things?? Ridiculous
I was so shocked I just went "oh." And I'm so annoyed at myself I keep thinking of all sorts of witty retorts I could have made but too little, too late. I took Felix to a pediatric chiropractor yesterday for his wind. They were miracle workers with Darcy. She released his diaphragm, he did an enormous belch & fell asleep in my arms almost instantly. He slept for about 6 hours straight! Then woke up and started going the other end - big loud farts & poos for ages. He was in a bit of pain getting it all out but his little belly looked so much better than it had done and was so much softer, it had been like a balloon stretched to maximum inflation point. We had a restless night last night but I think that was because he had slept all day. I'm hoping he continues to get relief from it, we are taking him back in a week.

If I had a dime for every time someone else I'd shot myself with all boys...3 boys 4 boys etc. now that I have 4 it's worse. My comments are I love all boys. I'm the queen of the castle. I'm one away from a basketball team. MY buys are the next jk as brothers. Etc etc etc. people are cruel aren't they? Sorry it happened to you primal.

How is everyone?
I'm still really annoyed at things I didn't get to do and how my birth went. Just found out dh asked to cut babys cord and was ignored, midwife went ahead and did it. I never got my water birth (again) despite asking again and again. This was my first time at that hospital and it was exactly how I imagined. No help with b/feeding and no pain relief offered for afterpains which were the worst I've ever had (plus the fact I had the placenta removed manually with only gas and air) no little card with babys details on it for her cot and I didn't even get any ID wristband. Useless.
Baby beau I am so sorry that you didn't get the birth you wished for. It seems that a lot of mothers are feeling disgruntled at how they were treated here in NZ as well. Perhaps you should write them a letter or email it might be healing for you. We are good Hazel is smiling a lot and cooing which makes it all worthwhile! Xxx
That's terrible beau. I would making a complaint. It's your right to have your choice, it was your labour!
