Hi
I was wondering if anyone could make me see if I am being a bit over sensitive.

Bit of background
2 children at home 10 and 5.

5 year old has complex needs quite poorly.
10 year old healthy.

3 weeks ago I had a miscarriage at 18 weeks to a baby girl.
It's been a hard long few weeks and I am a little mentally drained.

Last night daughters feeding pump was alarming a lot and I said to a friend about it as it driving me crazy.
She replied with " oh don't know what to suggest "

I eventually got some sleep. No more messages between us until 9.30 this morning when I got a message that said

" don't think you would of coped with another baby with daughters name seriously"

I haven't replied I don't even know what to reply !

I'd just reply "I beg your pardon?" And see what she responds with.

Have you decided what to do OP? I think I would reply “wow. What a rude and hurtful thing to say. Talk about kicking someone when they’re down”. Then see what she says. I think it would be useful to bear in mind how often you have had to defend her to others. There comes a point where it is just Too Much.
