God I am just getting really frustrated with the things people say and I don't know if it's my hormones but I just really wonder what people are thinking sometimes! I feel like EVERYTHING is offending me!
Like when the in-laws tell us we have no idea what we've let ourselves in for, our lives are over, we will have no social life anymore...etc etc
Or when my friends (no kids) say that "people have had babies for millions of years", like I don't know that, and to "stop worrying" when actually I hardly talk to them about it at all, only when THEY ask ME, and then they have useless retorts.
AHHHHHHHH!
OK this has kind of gone into "annoying comments people make", but I really feel sometimes that people DO NOT UNDERSTAND how this feels! Even women who have had babies themselves have somehow forgotten how sensitive a time it is and how massive a deal it seems to you personally.
AND actually it doesn't feel great when people say, "oh I nearly bought you a babygro but then i thought things could still go wrong..."
OH YEAH. THANKS!!!! (cos I never worry about that one...)
Ok. Must chill.
