My best friend growing up was a major tomboy and she was always bouncing off the walls with energy...so girls can be crazy active too! I hate stereotypes as well.....

I know! My luck, as girly girl as I am I would have a very tomboy-ish daughter LOL
That comment has made me feel so bad for that little boy since that lady talked to me. I just feel so sorry for that little boy. I think some people don't know how to handle boys either. Luckily I have a very high energy level so I think I'm well matched with sons :lol

Yesterday, I actually tried the honest route for the first time in my life. The lady is in her 40s & fought infertility most of her life. She finally has 2DS + a newborn girl. She just GUSHED and GUSHED to me how she "got her girl" & how surely she would've been "ok" with 3 boys (YEAH RIGHT, she'd be crushed like the rest of us), but how happy she is to have her girl. BLAH BLAH BLAH. So she looked at me, said some comment to rub in that I only had boys & I said, "Yeah, all my life all I've ever wanted is a little girl. It's been hard." Shut her up quick & made her look a bit sheepish!

Applesoup, I completely admire you for saying that. I would never have the balls to do that. I bet that made her feel horrible! I can't believe after dealing with infertility for SO long she would say something like that.


It's SO nice to know I'm not alone ladies thank you SO MUCH!! I just can't believe people and the *$&% they say!! I wonder if moms of one of each get the same comments! Or do they just get "one of each, how lucky!". The only people who ever tell me how lucky I am and truly mean it with a smile on their face are old men. They always say 2 boys, how lucky are you. Those comments make you feel so good you just want to hug who says them!

I just say, 'yeah Im waiting for my order' & then they laugh.

But if they knew what I was really thinking about them, they wouldnt ask in the first place.

I live for me and my family & Ive learnt to not give a hoot what anyone thinks, the world is always going to have something negative to say regardless, so just try your best to ignore people's comments cause unfortunately they're never going to go away.

'Good Heavens!! I'd rather have two handsome princesses than Drusilla and Anastasia there!!!!' Then point at the ugly sisters and burst out laughing to the point when you say 'Oh no. I've pee'd myself!' and hold your crutch. I promise you you will never be bothered by this person again;):bigsmile:

yeah I'm waiting for my order LOL that would be funny. That's really clever.
You are VERY right, reguardless the world is going to have something negative to say about everything. very very true. You can't please anyone, I've been learning that lately about life.

Fwiw us girl mom's get it just as bad, I can't tell you how often I hear "3 girls, oh your poor husband" It's really mean but when ever I encounter a woman who's so brazen about our lack of boy and her brood of them I've actually said "why on earth would I want a boy?" I of course don't mean it but it shuts em right up. I'm always amazed at how strangers think it's ok to be so rude.
I know we all feel GD on our own but if other people didn't comment all the time for years on end I think it might not be quite as bad.

I wish I would have thought of some of these comebacks when ppl made those rude comments to me! One time at Walmart the (toothless) woman ringing us up said, "I would kill myself if I had all boys...". Yeah. I was preggo w/DS3 at the time and she said that after asking me if I was having a girl. I told her with a sweet smile on myself, "that's interesting bc I would kill myself if I was toothless and working at Walmart". My DHs jaw dropped open. It shut her right up tho. I can't be held responsible for what comes out of my mouth if I'm hormonal, pregnant and dealing with morons.... Hahaha.

ETA- I forgot to add that when that woman made that comment, my sons were standing right there. When we left the store my oldest asked me what killing yourself meant. I was so upset. Ppl are so ignorant and stupid.
