+ a million! Not as tragic as your situation, but I had four miscarriages, including one after a strong heartbeat was found. Do, my DD is an only child. At a school event, another parent literally laughed at me for having only one child and how I never had any right to complain about parenthood (I never do anyway because I don’t want to be judged) and how easy it must be. Sometimes I just want to tell people like this about the miscarriages so they feel like sh!t. [/quote]

With you both. I smile blandly through the comments that people make about my "easy only" and how I have no idea "what it's really like," whatever that means. I know everyone has their own crap that they deal with, but I definitely don't have an only by choice and the parents rich with more children can be weirdly and sometimes hurtfully smug. [/quote]

I fully support your right to shut that sh*t down immediately. An inappropriate comment gets an inappropriate reply. "Yeah, you're right! It is easy! Sucks about all my dead babies, but I'm really making out on the workload front child-wise!" Let them stumble over their words and feel like crap. They should learn to think twice before making those kinds of comments. [/quote]
Yikes. Who is saying that stuff? I was thinking about having a second, but after this experience my DS is likely to be an only. Even if I did have a second kid, I could never imagine saying anything remotely like that to somebody. [/quote]
