I'm currently 36 weeks pregnant with identical twin girls (and have a dd, 3.5yo). Twins was a surprise but dh and I are delighted (and a little nervous as most expectant parents are). I've had the usual stupid comments, mostly re having 3 girls and that being a nightmare etc but have my replies sorted for that.
Today I waddled into town and in the lift in M&S came across 3 women, 2 with children who asked when I was due etc and were really lovely. An older woman proceeded to tell me how her friend had twins and made comments such as it's an absolute horror, 2 babies crying etc is real hell, poor you, it's going to be horrendous for you.
I just was stunned at how rude this complete stranger was. Wish I'd come up with a good response but I was too stunned. Am I being hormonal or is this a fairly bizarre reaction to what I deem to be good news?
