If anyone fancies a look..

Evening fellow LTTTcers!! Just found this and while I've only read the first couple of entries I think it might be quite useful. xx

https://barrenblog.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

And here is, so far, my favourite passage. It just about sums up how I feel at the moment!
"The Barren Woman's hate list item #1 - Pregnant Women
Obviously I realise this makes me sound like a demon, but the point of this blog is to be honest with myself about my feelings and hopefully reach out to other women who share them.

So yes, I loathe, despise and detest other pregnant women with a fanaticism bordering on psychotic. Particularly the ones who absently stroke their bumps while talking to you or browsing the supermarket shelves.

They just look so bloody smug. And they're everywhere - or did I just not notice them before?"

lol made me giggle to read,sorry. but i am exactly the same. i say to my oh all the time "oh look theres another woman with a baby,acting all smug coz she got a baby and i havnt". sad but true.
And pregnant women stroking their bumps.
And my all time worst mothers who dont watch their children or play,talk to them etc, a few weeks ago some mother was having a chat with her friend rather than watching her children and one of the little ones ran straight out in front of us,god job my oh is a good driver and was paying attention.I was sooooo angry how people like that can have children so easy,makes me furious!!!

I think I just didnt notice them before lol and realy im happy for them,deep deep down just jealous as hard as itis to admit :/

lots and lots of baby dust to you xx

Yes, that is the sad little truth no one wants to say out loud. I hate everyone who is pregnant when I am not!! I try to think, "you don't know what they went through to get pregnant. Maybe they were trying for years." But sometimes you know they weren't and you just hate them. I can't tell you how many begrudging congratulations I have offered ppl and then I feel badly that I'm not really happy for someone elses good news. Makes you feel like a witch you know?

yep deff know, when a friend told me she was pregnant i offered my congratulations and "excitement" for her but went home and cried for hours. I dont see much of her anymore as it realy annoys me that since she had her baby she started cheating on her oh and is out nearly every night,fobin her baby off with whoeva will babysit.makes me soo mad. her poor oh found out a little while after the affair started and has made several attempts to work it out with her but she just wants to be out drinking. She now also says she wasnt trying for a baby,it was just a accident grrrrrr
I just dont understand why try for a baby if you want that sort of lifestyle

Just want to share a quick story about when me and my OH were in walmart the other day.

We saw this woman pretty much dragging her son around and he said mommy where are we going and she just completely ignored him. Didn't look at him, acknowledge him or say one thing.

That makes me so angry!
Why have children if you're just going to treat them like that!

 

[XwishX]

dont you just feel like shouting at them. "your child is talking to you!!!!!!!" lol

 

[ashknowsbest]

dont you just feel like shouting at them. "your child is talking to you!!!!!!!" lol

yeah i just find that treating children with respect as well as getting respect from them is equally important. I wouldn't want to make my kids feel like their worries and wonders weren't important to me!

I was a LTTC'er, took me 8 years. I was sooooo smug when I finally got pregnant! I would constantly touch my bump and try to show it off. A woman in the supermarket snapped at me once for it!

And I'm quite sure I'll be the same (if I'm completely honest I stroke my belly as if I were pregnant now so God knows how bad it'll be when I actually am!! There'll be smooth patches worn in all my clothes from all the stroking!!)

 

[NellyVille]

I've been reading the blog for the last few days and I've found myself crying with laughter. This lady certainly has a way of looking at things that brighten the whole sorry situation.
