I pretty much did!! It was over Instagram too. I posted about a pregnancy pillow and they messaged me asking if I was pregnant so I said yes, and it went from there.

My reply was blunt and I then removed that person from my followers. I’m not saying it was a deliberate act to insult me, but sometimes things are better left unsaid. I wasn’t amused and in my opinion, it doesn’t matter where or how a child is conceived - it’s about the love it receives when born, and who it’s parent/parents/family are.

Not even 7 weeks pregnant and just got my first lecture from a colleague on how I should definitely breastfeed because I mentioned that I probably won’t be.

How odd I have also been told about breast feeding but it isn’t something I have ever wanted to do either! X

also people say some very insensitive things I think it’s lack of intelligence that is an awful thing to say but experience tells me they are morons. Good for you for blocking them. I have had people say things to me like im not a real parent because I’m a step parent and judge me then people say when are you having children, even though I have mentioned my struggles before. People are very unkind sometimes some of these people purposely say these things to hurt me and I pity themas I would never say these things.

I never wanted to breast feed my first child and felt like I was pressured into it mostly by my mum who thinks she’s an expert after having 4 kids I did it for 4 months and it was fine but have decided I won’t be doing it with this one. When we switched to bottles with our first it was sooo much easier!

Some people just don't think at all!
My own Mum, at a family party, a month after my miscarriage, turned around infront of everyone and asked when I'm making her a grandmother because she's bored of waiting.

My friend had twins and the first thing people said to her was how she had a ready made family now and wouldn’t need to have anymore. She was rightfully angry, who are people to assume she didn’t want want more children.
Another thing that annoys me is when people hear I’m having my 4th, they find it funny to say to my husband “tie a knot in it” & “you don’t want anymore”. We have always wanted a large family and as long as we can afford it and support our family why not. It’s no one else’s business .
It’s like they see other people happy and want to rain on it.

This!! People just can’t help but add their opinion, and you’ll never please everyone!

Had an older woman once ask me if I was looking for condoms in the aisle at Tesco and pointed me to them! Honestly didn’t quite know how to respond to that one politely Was actually after shampoo but there you go.

When I was a teenager I used to put lube and condoms in peoples trollies if it makes you feel better then I would watch them find them at the till and would cry with laughter

I had a breast reduction at 18, therefore my nipples don’t work. I CANNOT breastfeed, the choice has been taken away from me.
As long as the baby is fed, who cares how it’s done?
don’t listen these people.
skin to skin is what helps to bond with your baby too, they encourage it for the first hour, it helps with breast fed babies and bottle fed. So it’s win win x

Thats awful. Did she realise her gaffe? When we announced this pregnancy to my parents over zoom my mums response was “”finally! I was wondering what was taking so long!” - miscarriage in April, second pregnancy announced end of July, hardly a long delay....

Hi everyone! Not sure if this is right thread to post on but I need some advice! I’ve just taken this pregnancy test as not been feeling myself, come off pill around 7 weeks ago! I have this result below, it come up within the time frame! I never took my eyes off it watching it develop! However the other pics is a fresh test which hasn’t been used and it already has a line on? I’m going to test again tomorrow morning but it’s driving me maaaad x

I can see a second line it’s so faint though, test again in a few days but looks really promising!

Edit to say if you can buy a clear blue early result rather that the cheapies you’ll get a much better result, I was still getting faint and negative tests with Asda cheapies when I was getting clear positives with clear blue

I second clear blue. I got stark white on Morrisons test but blazing positive on both clear blue and first response. Don't rate cheapies at all. Also I always got stronger lines at night rather than first thing in morning!

You will get a much clearer result from first pee of the day, the line is faint but you can see it without having to squint your eyes hopefully will be stronger next time you test x

Went in to discuss with my consultant today after a 3rd degree tear with my second and having panic attacks over tearing again and also because I still get pain now.
She basically said no to a csection regardless of what I said.
Come away feeling super panicked now. I'd spent ages just working up the discussion in my head and making sure I got all my points across!
