Can people PLEASE trust me?

Can people PLEASE stop asking me when my doctor appointments are?

-Unless YOU are spreading your legs, keep your business away from between mine.

Can people PLEASE stop sending me articles about BPA?

-I can read just fine all by myself - been doing it for 34 years now. I was a gifted kid. And no I will NOT poison my child.

Can people PLEASE stop telling me that I have to be 100% into breastfeeding to make it work?

-No s**t Sherlock. Thanks for the update.

Can people PLEASE start realizing that I am a full grown adult and not a clueless moron who cares for OTHER people's children all day on a daily basis, has been certified and fingerprinted by the great State of New York, has no criminal record WHATSOEVER and does not ASK for unsolicited advice?

Please have faith in me that I will do right by my daughter and stop sending me internet articles that do nothing but scare the crap out of people unnecessarily. I may be a first time mother, but I am 37 years old and I do have above average intelligence for G-'ds sake.

I would much prefer punching people in the face but pregnant women in jail don't fare too well I hear.

Thanks! If people don't think I can care for a child, call Child Protective Services right now and save me some time.

You should tell them that your FIL is a past member of Mensa and that he is SO smart that you don't need advice from anyone else. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Personally, I would much rather take the most recent copy of the DSM and diagnose friends and family.

Not with OUR expertise. All we need is a psychologist and perhaps a social worker.

Seriously I could have written that word from word....my Dad has been sending me everything under the sun and lecturing me about having natural child birth and breastfeeding.

I'm SOOOOOO tired of it...I told him last night...Its my body I will do what I choose with it.

I never thought my Dad of all people would be so crazy about this stuff

Id tell any man who forces breastfeeding upon me to take hormones and sprout his own at this point. My DH included- he knows better and trusts that I will make the best choices for our family.

I have admitted repeatedly that I was not interested one bit on BFing before I got PG. But I do read. I do ask questions and have become willing to learn to see if it is something I can do to the best of my ability. For ME, that is a HUGE step and on some level, I am becoming more excited about it. HOWEVER, the day someone forces it down my throat and starts sending articles or spewing facts or lecturing me, is the day I break out the can of Enfamil and shove it up their arses! Yeah, I said it.

Re: Can people PLEASE trust me?

Leslie, didn't you know that the minute you became PG, you lost all intelligence to know what to do?

And that's just the beginning.

It usually starts with "are you finding out the sex?", then it's the amnio vs no amnio, breastfeeding, vaginal vs c-section, natural vs drugs, what bottle to buy, why are you buying white furniture (or any other color!!!) etc...

Then it's how to raise your kids, how THEIR kid did such and such (of course, theirs are perfect!!). When will she walk, who does she look like, etc...

Enjoy motherhood!!!!
