How Do You Deal?? Posted: 03-21-07 15:36pm
How do you deal with the ignorant pregnant
women around you? I know that it is none
of my business...but it is just so
frustrating! There is a woman at work. She
has recently told people that she is
pregnant. (I have known since the
beginning (I am ttc...so I know what to
look for)) Anyways, one of the girls at
lunch told her she needs to be eating
more. Then another girl said "well you
should be fine you have prenatals to make
sure you get everything you need". She
responds with "I'm not taking any
prenatals". So I
pipe up " You doctor didn't put you on
prenatals? They are pretty important!" She
responds with " Ohh...the doctor wrote me
a prescription. I just never got it
filled. giggle giggle giggle" Mind you
I have been on prenatals for six months.
Then I get to hear the rest of the day all
about how the baby was with them when they
were in Vegas and on her birthday ( both
times in which she got trashed ) Mind you
her and her dh were ttc. There is just
absolutely no excuse! I am just so
frustrated. It's like the people who want
and can care for children the most have
the hardest time getting/staying pregnant.
While the ignorant people get pregnant
straight away. How do you girls deal?

I know how you feel my 17 year olf cousin
just gave birth and here I am still TTC a
she has a precious little life and she
doesn't even have a job and i know she
didn't take care of herself her entire
pregnancy. Then my friend called me and
told me she was pregnant and that it was
time for her to get her 3rd abortion. I
just about lost it with her comment to me.
Why do women who want babys have the
trouble of concieving? I feel your
frustration dear. I just tune them out and
try my best to think positive.

Tell me about it. I have this at work who
has 4 kids all less than a year apart.
Here is the best part, all four have
different fathers. This girl, smokes like
there is no tomorrow, and never quit
during her pregnancy. I really don
know!!!!

I Sure Understand Posted: 03-22-07 08:28am
I know exactly what u mean. There was at
least 5 pregnant ladies here at work.
When 1 gets prego there has to be at least
4 or 5 more can u believe that (maybe is
in the water...). Well out of this ladies
1 is about 3 months, another one is 2
months. One just gave birth to a baby boy.
Ok this is where i get mad ok....One of
the ones that got pregnant said "I cant
have this baby, I already have kids" and
GUESS what she had a "miscarriage" I
could not believe it. THen the
supervisor's asst. also said that she
didnt want a baby and also misteriously
had a "miscarriage" I just got all angry
and sad at the same time, here i am ttc
and these girls are just like nothing when
they loose the baby. There is one that is
ttc also and she did but the "bag" where
the baby grows in was not growing so they
had to make her have an abortion. She
said she has 2 kids already so it wasnt
that bad. I dont even take breaks anymore
all they do is talk about it or their kids
and i feel like i m just there having
nothing to say. And like u say why give
babies to some that cant take care of
them?? Well believe me there is a girl
here that has 3 kids going on 4 and they
are also different fathers and she is only
24 yrs old. I think the best thing to do
when ur ttc is try and keep ur mind busy
on other things cause if not the thought
of why ur not prego will consume you...I
would know. If u find the way to deal
PLEASE LET ME KNOW
So I
pipe up " You doctor didn't put you on
prenatals? They are pretty important!" She
responds with " Ohh...the doctor wrote me
a prescription. I just never got it
filled. giggle giggle giggle" 
Mind you
I have been on prenatals for six months.
