I was talking to a girl at my church this past week and I asked her how things were going. This is the answer I got… “I have 14 weeks left in this pregnancy and I am just soooo ready for this all to be over with, you know?”
No, actually, I don’t know. I would actually LOVE to have 14 weeks left in a pregnancy. Poor you that you are uncomfortable, but you know what? Suck it up. You aren’t getting any sympathy from me woman.
Anywho, just had to share. :) I wish people would a) get a little perspective and b) think before they speak!
Augh. I want to forehead slap this girl for you - in a very nice 'next time think before you speak' kind of way. :) Some people just don't realize.
ReplyDeleteHa ha...thanks for the backup! :)
DeleteSoon she will be complaining about being up all night with a newborn. Won't get any sympathy then, either!
ReplyDeleteFor real!!
Deletei'm so sorry she's so insentive. may God guard your heart against people who want to make comments like that... they have NO IDEA how blessed they are. i'm sure she got pregnant the first month TTC too...grr. still praying for you, Lisa.
ReplyDeleteThanks Adriane!!
DeleteI know the feeling... been there plenty of times, myself. People really need to be dope-slapped sometimes for the thoughtless and/or insensitive things they say. Sigh!
ReplyDelete:) Sigh indeed.
DeleteArg!!! that is so frustrating. I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY! How rude. It may not have been intentional, but I know a girl who complains about everything to do with her pregnancy... If only she knew...
ReplyDeleteUGH! Frustrating!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, hearing, "Oh when are you due?" "Oh your expecting!" and we're not... But thanks for calling me fat - thats bad...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah...that's definitely not a good one!!
