Someone needs to get some fucking holiday spirit.<BR/><BR/>You look so awesome by the way. I am closely following your journey since I'm having twins too :)Mrs. Piggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10981344126071792523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30715046.post-11251187353621506982007-12-07T17:10:00.000-08:002007-12-07T17:10:00.000-08:00I hate anonymous posters. If you feel so strongly...I hate anonymous posters. If you feel so strongly to write a post that is so mean, at least be a "grown adult" as you say you are, and put your name on it.<BR/><BR/>I am sorry you aren't getting support from your family. My family did offer us both financial and emotional support. It's tough having kids, tough having to spend all that money on even getting pregnant, and I fully appreciated my family's help. I wasn't at all insulted by my family offering money. Just like I live to take care of my kids, my parents feel that way about me. They would do anything to help make my life easier, just like I hope to be able to do for my kids when they are older. <BR/><BR/>There is no doubt that you will be a great parent to your kids, and accept all the help that your friends have to offer. Sometimes your friends ARE your family. Sounds like that may be the case for you. Hopeful you can find some of your emotional support online from us bloggers!<BR/><BR/>hugs!Cabahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164597797727112635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30715046.post-85939961055920984742007-12-07T17:01:00.000-08:002007-12-07T17:01:00.000-08:00Just wanted to say I'm glad to hear that your preg...Just wanted to say I'm glad to hear that your pregnancy is going well. You are glowing in those belly shots! I'm sorry that your family isn't being very supportive. I know that must be hard. You waited so long, I'm sure you want everyone to be over to moon with you. My ILs weren't all that supportive, but my family made up for it. Hopefully your friends can do the same for you all. I'm also sorry that you have to deal with anonymous posters that such such rude, uncalled for things. Please try to ignore it! Anyway, congrats again!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30715046.post-34024819578597370072007-12-07T04:31:00.000-08:002007-12-07T04:31:00.000-08:00Heather- I get what you mean about the family thin...Heather- I get what you mean about the family thing. It is very important in my book too- my side of the family is more supportive than dh's but then when you get into my side- my Mom's is the complete opposite of my Dad's...so I understand what you mean. It is difficult when they say they will do something and then there is no follow through- it is difficult especially now. I am very glad that you do have many friends that are there for you- sometimes as adults friends become closer than our actual families, they become our families. Sending you lots of love- take care!<BR/><BR/>And as for this 'Anon' person- get a life- actually read what someone is blogging about before posting a comment about them needing to mature- if you knew anything about anything you would NEVER have said what you did- or well, maybe you are the one in need of maturing. who knows. Trust me, this person that you made these horrible remarks about has done way more thinking than you can ever have imagined.MY JOURNEY TO A HAPPY HEALTHIER ME....https://www.blogger.com/profile/11825193996100136059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30715046.post-50392096803576877452007-12-06T21:08:00.000-08:002007-12-06T21:08:00.000-08:00I'm sorry your family isn't showing much support. ...I'm sorry your family isn't showing much support. :( One can always hope things change after the baby arrives right? But at least you have friends.<BR/><BR/>Anon - I think you miss the entire point of her post and are making assumptions about... well, pretty much everything. :rollseyes: I don't think you know this blogger very well at ALL or you wouldn't be posting. I mean seriously, what the hell does nights of no sleep have to do with wishing your parents were showing support?? Good grief I hate anon posters in blogs.Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16003334714597731355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30715046.post-35616283179869949012007-12-06T17:38:00.000-08:002007-12-06T17:38:00.000-08:00It is disturbing that two grown adults expect mone...It is disturbing that two grown adults expect money for a planned pregnancy. Should you not have saved up to have children before going to such lengths to conceive. I have had 5 children and supported them ourselves. We certainly never expected money from family and would have refused it. We are adults who provide for our own. Money equals support? I don't get that. Support could be joy, offering to babysit now and then, empathizing with your aches and pains, but to call support by the same name as money appears to me that you are really not ready. Do you expect "support" to put them through college? To pay for their braces? What makes you think a loving family provides those things for their grown children who have CHOSEN to become parents and take on all that goes with this? Something tells me that you are going to have to mature very, very quickly. There will be night after night when you will get no sleep. You will still have to function the next day. There will be bouts of illness and all sorts of things that it will be your job to figure out how to pay for. Adults do not expect to rely on others. Adults plan ahead. Only in a disaster, an unplanned unavoidable disaster would I expect my family to offer money. In fact, I would be quite insulted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
