I'm having a bit of a crap time at the moment. I found out I was pregnant a few weeks ago but have since been back and forth to hospital including some surgery as they suspect it is ectopic. Or I may of miscarried. Either way there's a very miniscule chance that this will result in a baby. As I type this I'm waiting for my blood test results to know what will happen next.

I went to playgroup today with DS, which is a particularly close knit session aimed at a certain group so it is the same group of people every week and we've all become familiar with eachother.

A girl that goes there with her toddler and newborn was there today, and it was just us. I was speaking with the lady who works there about my current situation and this girl joined in the conversation. I explained to her but said it was most likely that it wouldn't progress. She replied 'yeah it probably won't. Ah well atleast I can be the only one with a new baby for longer'

AIBU to think she is selfish and mean and not want to go back there again? I'm so pissed off. She has always been only interested in herself and always only talks about Herself and her DC's but FGS.

I realise I sound a bit whiny and annoying. I'm feeling sorry for myself today and needed a rant.

Sad

Good grief! What an utterly horrible thing to say!

Ok, anyone who has a newborn is inherently permitted to be a bit U, but that's beyond the pale.

I think you did the right thing by not engaging. No need to escalate it. Just avoid her, unless and until she comes crawling on her knees to apologise to you.

And I'm very sorry to hear about your situation, that sounds really tough Thanks

Shock what a nasty cow! I'm having a high risk pregnancy and had surgery only 5 days ago to save the baby I would have verbally torn shreds off her.

She sounds horribly self-absorbed and staggeringly insensitive. So sorry you're going through this AND having to fend off unsympathetic fuckwits as well. Hope you heal soon - look after yourself Flowers
