Don't. Feed. The. Troll.
OP, good luck and keep laughing! |
and i'm still learning english. sorry for the bad grammar/punctuation. when i grow up i want to be as polite as you
i wish i knew how to be "moderate" when expressing my point of view |
Sorry, I'm the PP who fed the troll...but I KNEW it was the same person from the other board!!! Amazing.... OP, good luck to you and your family. |
|
amazing?
that was so easy... i don't use caps and my grammar is bad. any 3rd grader would realize it's the same person posting... |

I would like a link to any medical PROOF the troll has to the mother's emotional state being linked to any consequences for a fetus.
I asked my doctor about this once and she said if stress or unhappiness in moms did damage to babies there would be no successful deliveries, anywhere. People have perfectly healthy babies in frickin war zones for goodness sakes. |

I'm in the boat with you my friend. We have two boys, 2 & 3, and had a big oops a while back. To add to it, we had a big shocker at our first ultrasound -- we're having twins. Holy $hit. We were terrified for a long time. I'm now close to the end and we are getting really excited. 4 under 4 is going to be tough, but we're confident the kids will grow up close and our life will be easier down the road as they beome their own little group.
You can do this -- there are lots of great people out there to help you. Your kids will fill your life with love and laughter and in a very short time you won't be able to imagine your life without the new addition. I know you're a great Mom and will continue to be! |
| I can't say I have been there. But my brother and I were five and six when our baby sister arrived. She was the sweetest, best thing that happened to our gang of rowdy boys. We were blessed to get her. I hope your kids feel the same way. |
try to drink while pregnant... maybe smoke? the amount of "waste" your body has to process when you're under stress is close to the amount processed when you drink/smoke. ask your doctor to go back to school. honestly, if I were you I'd look for another doctor. why pregnant women are not allowed in some rides in amusement parks? because they're not allowed to have fun? Why do you exercise, play songs to the baby while pregnant? for NOTHING? so let's curse, drink and smoke since it doesn't cause any danger to the baby, right? don't play ignorant. (I guess you're pretending right? You can't be THAT dumb...) |
Obviously, you have very strong feelings about this topic. Your passion is commendable. However, your strident posts create a contradiction that I believe is worth considering. The tone of your messages, as well as the content, is likely a source of stress and negative feelings for the original poster (and any other pregnant woman who happens to be reading). If you truly feel as strongly as you suggest about the damage caused by stress, wouldn't it be a good idea to let this drop and, instead, try to provide encouragement and support for the original poster? You don't want to be the cause of stress-related trauma to the baby do you? |
you're right... she should be doing yoga, walking, doing meditation.... instead of reading what I post. ; ) |
OP here! Good luck to you! I can't imagine my reaction if my OB told me I was having twins right now. More power to you for having such a positive attitude. Thanks so much for the encouragement. I know you are right and all will be fine. I'm almost getting used to the idea. Now...if only the third could be a girl... (though I'm not holding my breath!).
