Nahri so as sorry that your getting negative comments smh, my family was like that with DS2 I was young and not married to my DH yet so they felt that they could try and convince me of an abortion ughhh. I dont get why family have to be the ones with the negative comments for me it hurts much worse than a stranger. I freaked out a few weeks ago for some negative comments from my family and put my foot down and told them if they have negative comments than they can start paying me to say them lol!!
Good luck hope it gets better try not to let anyone get to you, i know it can be hard. Xxx
Quick question that I'm hoping one of you ladies might know the answer to.. going to call my midwife's office when they open to ask, but here's the question: I am having my blood drawn this afternoon for the Harmony genetic test. I went to the doctor yesterday for a bad cold/infection and they put me on antibiotics... does anyone know if amoxicillin in my system will skew the results in any way or if it's ok to be on that while having the test performed?
I don't think any medication would interfere with this type of blood work carlyandlee.
Well I told a friend about the pregnancy as she asked me why I'm not drinking and as a terrible liar I told her. Her reaction was..." What!? Your pregnant again!!!? Really!!!?" In a tone that would be classed as disappointment. Then said " you only have to walk past mothercare to get pregnant don't you!"
There was no congratulations and no smile :(
missxo - I know you are earlier than I am, but I have a few questions about your twin pregnancy so far. I'm 10w3d and so far this pg has been so much easier than my DS. I've had far less nausea, been much less tired, and much less hungry. I've gained less weight and my stomach is still pretty flat (compared to 10w with my son). How does this pg compare to your singleton pregnancies? I saw the babies on Monday but I'm so worried they aren't OK because this doesnt' feel like a twin pregnancy. Also I didn't get my BFP until 12 dpo and at 2 weeks the dates estimator on the CB tests only said 1-2 weeks pregnant (I would think with twins it would have said 2-3 or 3+?). Dh is telling me I'm being crazy and paranoid but it's so hard not to worry when my singleton pregnancy was so much worse.
Ugee, Nahri, Kasey, others...what the hell is wrong with people?? Where have the world's manners gone? How about "Congratulations!" as a response when you tell someone you are prego. Of course they will all have their own opinion but that isn't what you told them. Ugh, people are so damn rude in our modern society. How on the earth is having #3 acting like the Duggars? They have double digits and almost 20, not 2!!!
I have to admit this is a huge reason I have told almost no one. I am starting to pop out and I know some people are curious but they don't say anything because I could just be fat at this point....I am so glad its winter, sweaters & jackets are all mine!!
I am almost 40, I have a 15 year old, we can't really afford another child, we have 2 kids with special needs, etc. I have one brother and a crop of extended family members that have been as rude as can be about anyone that has more than 2 kids...(my parents had 7 and they are still being criticized). Another brother thinks anyone over 35 having kids is "SO OLD!". My mom will be livid if I don't tell her soon, but I just don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear what anyone has to say....because chances are, it won't be anything close to "Congratulations!" That would be just too easy and POLITE.
It's so hard not to take offence but I am trying to keep positive and I'm not doing this for anyone else so they can trot on. My mum actually took it rather well so I am pleased about that. Maybe your mum will too Adia? The friend with the bad reaction so to speak has no children and doesn't want them so I just shrugged her reply as her own feelings and wants. My husband is thrilled until our two boys have a bad moment then he just sighs lol!
I swear ppl are just so ignorant, and don't think that what they say may hurt :( Family and friends too, you would think at least they could be happy for you!!!
I told a friend at school I was expecting, one day my MIL picked kids up and was speaking to my friend. My friend said to her "are you excited about another grandchild?" My MIL shrugged her shoulders and said "each to their own I guess"
When my friend told me I was fuming and so was hubby and we confronted her, she then started to be over nice about baby which I just new was her acting. She has always thought we should be just like them and have 2 kids. Makes me angry, what has it got to do with anyone else? As long as you, your partner and kids are happy thats all that matters.
