1st off, let me start by saying that me and my mom don't get along very well. She says she tries, but she always says or does something hurtful to me. So...
She was saying a girl at her work is pg. She's young, has no bf, and lives at home. I said that the people who aren't trying seem to get pg, while those of us who want and are trying can't. She made some snide comment that she's glad it's her.....wth? Like she's glad it's not me. She made that same comment awhile back. WTH is wrong with people? I mean, she's my mother....not that she acts like it. I will never treat my daughter that way. I want whatever will make her happy. I don't know. It just really hurt my feelings. Here I've been trying for 8 months since the m/c and nothing. BTW when I had my m/c me and her weren't even talking. The day I started bleeding she called to start some stupid ###### and I tried to tell her what was going on with me and her quote was "I don't even care". Nice, huh? Anyway, enough vent. Thanks for listening.

I'm sorry you are going trough this hun and specially because it's you mom, some people just don't care.

It is ironic that the motherly qualities are not natural in some people. My MIL says the same kind of thing to me and DH. She does not know we are TTC. As much as it sucks to say...... you might have to accept the fact that you mother is not part of a healthy support system when it comes to TTC. I am sorry and hope that once you have a baby, she sees what a wonderful mom you are and gives you some respect.

I'm sorry that you and your mom aren't seeing eye to eye on certain things. That always makes it tough. I hope that she can find a way to understand what you are going through and be a bit more compassionate. We're all here for you!

Thank all you wonderful ladies. I've just decided to stop even talking to her about anything that has to do with a baby. It's terrible when you can't even depend on your own mother for support though. Oh well, what will be, will be.

I'm sorry your mom is being so incredibly insensitive..

Thanks April!

I'm sorry she's being like that. Sometimes it's best to not talk about things if the other party can only be negative. Hopefully you can learn from your interactions with her and learn how not to handle things with your own children. My grandmother sounds very much like your mom. My mother turned her awful situation into a great learning experience and has never treated any of her children as her mother treats her. She consciously decided to break the pattern.

Awww michelle!! I'm sorry Hang in there!

[Mum2three]

Oh Trash!! I would be really peed off, and i would of told her where to go and how far to shove it. She is your mother, and she should be there for you no matter what. Use this experience and dont ever do it to your children. I understand where your coming from. my mom is the same way. she doesnt care about me. im the screw up in the family..i cant stand to be around negative ppl. We are your family from now on!!!

If you ever need to talk sweetie im here just pm me anytime! i have a mother likes yours. i told my mom off finally. cause i cant have that in my life.

Keep your head up high..You a good mom!!

[mom 2 haley & tyler]

Thank you all. Thanks Brandi! I won't ever be like that to my kids. I've already made that promise! I think I'm a good mom to Haley. I will NEVER be like my mother.
