to be pissed off with my sisters comments

[MrsVidic]

I am currantly on mat leave with my DD (6 months) and use facebook- its really my way of sharing photos with family/ friends and keeping in touch with work mates etc.

Anyway I posted today a comment which was- 'my day was going well until I got covered in wee! I never knew little girls had such a long range shot!'

This was also an in joke as I work with firearms so a lot of my colleagues would find it funny etc.

Anyway my sister- whom is an avid follower of my DD's expolits always commenting positivley then private messaged me saying I should be greatful for having kids as I may not be able to have another and my comments will haunt me'!?!

I know I'm making mountins out of mole hills but I just want to scream! When I got pregnant it was a real suprise as due to years of annorexia in my teens and not having a period for 6 years I really doubted my chances. I feel like she has just jinxed me!

She obviously misinterpreted your comment.

Don't let it bother you...or ring her and you can sort it out?

Hmm... is this not her saying that she can't have another kid and trying to get you to probe a little so she has someone to support her?

YANBU. What an odd thing for her to say. It's not like you were complaining about your DD, just making a joke. Is she having problems TTC?

YANBU that was a rather nasty and unnecessary thing to say.
Is she having trouble conceiving, she sounds way over sensitive?

she has 3 step DC's and hasn't started to TTC yet. I have calmed down now- I just don't get her sometimes.

Message her back and let her know you are hurt that the comment was not only unnecessary but cruel and you would thank her not to make such comments in the future.

Strange thing to say.... Wonder how she'll react when you've had a really bad day and just want your kids to disappear for 5 mins...... Cos' it sadly happens to us all regardless of good intentions....

Sounds like it's a issue with her life not yours. Ignore her.

I really don't understand your sister at all. How could she possibley interpret all that from a simple jokey comment about being weed on? YANBU. I would probably talk to her to find out what's really going on as the comment she made is totally OTT and inappropriate to the subject. We all get weed on- doesn't mean we don't love our kids more than life itself!
