I am sorry to hear that you are down. I don't know why some people feel they must say these type of things to people who are pg. The best thing to do is ignore them, easier said than done I know. Unless ofcourse it is sometning just horrible and mean. As for your mom, it could be a lot of things. Do you think she is disapointed because she had goals for you or anything like that? I know my mom was like untill my son was about a year(I had him when i was 17). Is this her first grandchild? Maybe she is starting ot look at her own mortality because she is going to be a grandma. It could as be that she doesn't think that you really felt the baby, that you are over reacting. Just know that YOU know that you did. Does bf or dh support you. I hope so. YOu can always come here. God Bless
: Just a short venting bout. I went to church this weekend. And an acquaintance there came up to me and asked me how far along I was. I said 3 month +. She then asks " So how come you got a belly?"
: I said I dunno my mum said I wont show till 5-6 months but I started showing early. She says I know about 4-5 months. Any how she holds me around the shoulder and whispers. I know what this is I think it is fat. Offers some flleting advice about not putting on too much weight and says I want when the baby comes to see you get back down and looking hot and stuff. I agreed and left. But to tell the truth I felt SOOOOOOO bad all day after that.
: Then there is a lady at work that is always bugging me to wear flat shoes. I intend to but I havent gotten around to getting a nice pair for work yet. What is wrong with everybody. I wonder what to say to them when they say these things. It may seem silly but it hurts.
: Then my mother cant seem to get excited with me. I am so glad to have the board that ya all can get excited with me over certain things. The other day I told her I was starting to feel the baby move. She said no I wasnt that I wouldnt feel it move ffor some time. Im not even four months yet. blah blah. Check me on the phone like a pathetic child trying to convince my mum that I felt the baby move. Since then I felt it much stronger but I basically decided I have nothing more to tell anybody. Sometimes its like if I didnt know I was pregnant Id doubt myself. People saying your not showing its fat, my mum saying the baby isnt moving. I mean. I wanted people to see Im pregnant so they can be excited but if you ask me they could really be a pain. Any ways too long already so Im gone.
