Comments that really made me feel bad...

In the past week....

At my Grandma's wake someone heard that someone in my family was pregnant and assumed it was me and congratulated me I had to say it wasn't and directed them to the person who was..and this person said "are you sure" Chat Icon YES I was very sure since my period had just started hours before

Someone said to me that same day...Wow all of your friends are pregnant or have kids...yes I am aware of that thanks!

And then we we went out for our anniversary lunch we were asked...Wow 2 year anniversary do you have kids yet? And then when I said no it was like well why not and when were we starting.

WHY are people so rude???

Re: Comments that really made me feel bad...

Totally feel your pain- I have been married for 5 years and it didn't really bother me when people would ask these things since I had no desire to try yet....

Now that we are trying, I think I am going to have to poke the next person who asks me in the eye!

My only consolation is telling myself that they are not being hurtful on purpose- they have no idea what is going on, and if they did that would keep their big fat mouths shut!Chat Icon

Re: Comments that really made me feel bad...

I have been married for almost 4 years and I get the "when are you having a baby" on a daily basis from my sister my MIL even my dad is begging for a grandson. It gets really annoying, now that we are TTC nobody has even said anything in like a week, go figure.

As hard as it is just try to ignore it, people are annoying.

I didn't get pregnant with DS until after my 7 Year wedding anniversary.
I got comments made to me left and right.
The only thing that shut people up is when I told them "medical reasons"..I truly was advised by Dr.s "Not to try, it could be risky" until they got to the bottom of things.
By the fall of 2005 I got the "All Clear" and then it took about 7 or 8 months to finally get pregnant.

People don't know your history and you shouldn't have to explain it.
I'd come home in tears. It's so hard.
People need to mind their own business and think before they speak.

Re: Comments that really made me feel bad...

Ugh - I am so sorry you are dealing with that. People s u c k!

My MIL makes comments like that all the time. To me and about other people!

I think we need to compile a list of comebacks.............

So sorry you had to deal w/ that on top of everything else.

I think people mean well, they are just so oblivious to people who are TTC because they never experienced it.
