Well i ran into my 1st negative person today

my sister's neighbor has insurance with us, so she comes in and says ooo I hear there in a congrats in order, so I go on to say thank you.

Then she asks when i am due and I tell her November, and she want on a rant of how I should of thought about that, bc I am going to be preggo during all those hot summer months, and that I am going to be sweating like a dog Chat Icon ,

So I respond, that's ok as long as I have a healthy baby, I don't care about sweating in the summer.

So THEN, she asks if we are going to find out and I tell her YEs, we want to know, and I got a whole other Rant, about how we should be surprised and she totally dislike when people find out Chat Icon .

So I nicely told her this is my baby and DH and I will do what's best for us and not her.

People are so rude... We found out we are having a boy, and so many people are telling us not to buy only boy stuff because they could've made a mistake. Or I have been told that girls are so much cuter!

Honestly, we didn't have a preference and you really don't have a choice. You get what God gives you, and as long as the baby's healthy- I don't care. People are just right out rude!

People are so ridiculous sometimes. I hate when people can't help but give us their opinion on the names we have chosen. IT'S NOT YOUR BABY IDIOTS! I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK!

Re: Well i ran into my 1st negative person today

People really are unbelievable. People will ask me if I know what I am having, once I say Chat Icon , they ask if I picked a name, which we have, and I say yes, Ryan Gary (Gary is after my DH's late brother who died at a very early age) and of course we get the.... well I kinda like Ryan, but Gary??? what is that?

UM HELLO!!! Is it ANY of your business??? Guess I should just start telling people that we don't have a name picked out.

Good for you for standing up for yourself!! I am a total witch when people butt into our baby decisions! What works for you doesn't necessarily work for me is usually how I tell them! I am pretty nasty about it but the convo ends then and there...that's how I like it!

Unreal isn't it. It used to bother me but now I laugh because why do my life decisions bother people so much. If it's not her hot and pregnant through the summer what the h^^^ does he care.

I get eyes rolled at me too because we like to find out beforehand. I always get the comment "there aren't that many suprises in life, that should be a surprise." Then my husband always says "chilbirth is enough of a suprise and seeing a baby come out of (me) is an even bigger surprise".

Re: Well i ran into my 1st negative person today

People are so obnoxious!

You should just HEAR the comments people make when we tell them we're having twins. Don't get me wrong, some are awesome and congratulate us on the double blessing and double delight... but there are some crazy people out there who like to make the most negative comments... I feel bad for them with such a negative outlook on something so beautiful.
