WWYD with this entitled drama queen?

[codenameduchess]

My friend is the first woman ever to be pregnant, life is just so difficult for her that less than 4 months in her bump is so big she can't put her shoes on. The poor soul!
She refuses to discuss anything but her PFB, won't nip to the shop for a pint of milk because 'it could damage the baby', yells at anyone who dates cough or sneeze with 20 feet of her and complains all the time about how awful she feels and how everyone should be doing whatever she tells them to on account of being knocked up.

I don't want to be the person to burst her bubble, but as a former preggo I can confirm that other women have done this before and at this stage (and every day since 6 weeks when she started rubbing her upper belly) 'bump' is less baby and more bloat/wind/poop.

Things are going to get a whole lot harder if she's making a song and dance now. I'm sick of hearing it! She never once asked how I was during my pregnancy and i didn't share every detail of my nipples and vag mucus uninvited so why am I being subjected to it??

The woman has already stopped working because she's pregnant. No HG or other genuine medical reasons, I'm not exaggerating when I says I've had EVERY FUCKING DETAIL!

I have muted every form of messaging from her.

That's a lot of venom.... the 12th text of today about her vagina has broken me. I'm really not a bad person!

She is going to be a joy at 41+6

You're not really friends are you?

I would find that bloody hard to put up with. I would probably eventually snap and explode at her.

@Bombardier25966 we genuinely are! She's never been like this before which is probably why we've stayed friends 😂

I mean, I was up a ladder with a paintbrush hours before giving birth!

I’d laugh and tell her just to wait until she’s 35+ then she can actually moan.

Ugh, this is not going to end well. Good luck!

Lord, I've spent years being pregnant and have yet to send a single text about my vagina to a friend. I'm not sure I've ever sent one to DH.

she'll have a helluva time wrestling the award for "World's First Mother" from my sil tbh

although, maybe SIL had to hand it back when she became "World's First Working Mother" ??

Sounds awful, you need to flee the country and assume a new identity.

I’m 38+3 and pretty sure I’ve not text anyone about my vagina thus far? What is she telling you

@AornisHades you're my kind of friend!!

I don't think I've ever shared vajayjay info with anyone that wasn't a medical professional and it was relevant.

She's going to be one of those mum's, you know, the one who screams at any other child who comes even a hairs breadth near their kid at the park/soft play etc, the one who always lays into the teachers, the one who parks on double yellows outside the school because, you know, they need to pick their kid up right now!

Please keep this thread updated code, I think I might enjoy it

@MsMightyTitanAndHerTroubadours this one has already declared she'd never even consider being a working mum and gave up work a few weeks ago.
I like your plan packs bag

@Sexnotgender mucus, colour, appearance, itchiness, dryness, moistness.... once even an update on a weird smell 🤢

If she's less than 4 months she's going to be completely insufferable nearer/during the time

I was somewhat with you until this.

I mean, I was up a ladder with a paintbrush hours before giving birth!

I couldn’t climb the stairs or walk unaided the day before I delivered, does that make me a drama queen? Don’t compare, it’s a dickhead thing to do.

She sounds annoying and draining, yes. Distance yourself until the baby is born and be there of she needs you?

I have muted every form of messaging from her.

Please unmute her, and just come and spill on MN for relief to amuse us all

Sounds like the next few months are going to be fun, fun, fun

@MamaLovesMango not really a dickhead thing imo. Not everyone is as lucky that close, but few are incapacitated from 6 weeks without some form of medical condition or complication was my point.

I'm honestly afraid it'll be worse when PFB arrives. I doubt we'll get an invite to meet the messiah with my filthy toddler

Another one on to be unhelpful say I've NEVER sent a single text about my vagina to ANYONE. I don't ever intend to, either, although maybe that's tempting fate.

Has she joined the mad mares of mumsnet yet - there must surely be a thread just for her .

Is she normally an anxious sort? if she is, this may just be a way of her anxiety expressing itself.
If not, then she's really going for it in a big way on her "specialness now she's pregnant"!

But I agree, you shouldn't mute her - if she IS anxious, it would be very unkind. Just tell her you can't reply to every message.

Comparing is a dickhead thing to do because you’re very unlikely to have the full story and telling people how you were practically super woman is just unhelpful, puts other women down and makes people feel like shit.

Did you know behaviour like this often comes out of fear and anxiety?

Well, if she’s too much hard work now and you’re worried it’ll be worse once the baby has arrived, then end the friendship. I’m kind of with Bombardier, the disparaging way you’re talking about her suggests you’re not really friends at all so it shouldn’t be that much of a hardship.

OP From now on, every single thing she says, one up her, say: I had that and embellish it with, my vag mucus was thicker, smellier, runnier etc, my back ached more, I was larger than you at X weeks, etc. Soon she will stop texting you.

Wait til the child is born and prepare yourself for how advanced her pfb is compared to yours at that age. Any disagreements are obviously because you are jealous of her child.

She sounds hideous. What was she like before she got pregnant? I mean, was she always a bit me, me, me and this is just a reason to be more so?
