Re: why do people....

I usually reply with, "And you're telling me this because why?" It usually makes for an awkward moment for them.

Chat Icon I will never understand why people do this. People have done this to me too and I just don't get why. What's the point? Ugh

LOL don't talk to me about birth experiences then Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

but in all seriousness, people love gossip and drama, that's why they say those things. IMO it doesnt matter what happened to anyone else. some people get pregnant without trying, some have to go through losses and IVF. it doesn't matter what happens to anyone else, we are all unique with different storeis to tell. i am sure by now you are well aware of all of the risks of childbirth so when someone tells you something like that i wouldnt really think twice about it (except in sadness for the mom of course)....
