Seeing someone pregnant for the first time the day you have your miscarriage. And they gloat and talk about how excited they are. All I wanted to do was punch them in the face and cry.
Getting invited to the baby’s baby-naming the day you have your second miscarriage. Even worse than the first time!
Going to the baby-naming and my uncle gloating that they are a grandfather before your own dad. That was my tipping point. I finally let it out and called him a jack ass. I guess the reality is he doesn’t have any tact to begin with so it’s no surprise he would be clueless.
I have found the majority of people have no idea that it is rude to ask “when are you having a baby…” Sometimes my answer is, well we’re trying. One day I think I will look at someone and say “well, I’ve had 2 miscarriages and am going through a lot of testing right now to find out why we are having so much difficulty”. Maybe then they will learn their lesson that its NONE of their business when ME AND MY HUSBAND are having a baby! Really, who do you think you are that you need to know! Asshole!
