i have been around many many pregnant people.. and most of them do act like that.. i see people like my cousin, and my best friend when they were pregnant, they worked right up until they gave birth... but many others that i have been around, without being in any danger, and yes i would know if they were, seeing as everyone talks here, they are some stupid princess... everything has to be done for them, they cant even lift a finger..
and yes i do have problem swith someone that cant do things for themselves when they are perfectly able to..​

Guess we know different people then. But really, how would you know that there was something wrong with them? I had low fluid levels for the last 10 or so weeks of my pregnancy, nobody at my work but my boss knew because I did not feel like broadcasting it. Just by looking at a pregnant person you cannot decide if they are high risk or not.

And like I said, most princess pregnant people are princess people when they are not pregnant. But there are some things that a pregnant person cannot and should not be doing.

I just really cannot get over how much you seem to hate pregnant people.

You don't have to say it, it comes across in your posts quite clear.

And what the heck does your last sentence mean? Family talks? So because your family talks about SOME pregnant people, you feel the need to go off on most of them? Or decide if they are high risk?

As my brother says when I am upset about something...."put it in a balloon, and let it go".

You may not have specifically stated that you hate them, but your posts do seem to drip with bitterness and anger towards them. I struggled with infertility for years, so I can understand that attitude. I don't know if there's anything as deep with you, but your posts do come across as very critical and unnecessarily harsh towards those who are pregnant.

It took me and my husband nearly 8 years to conceive our first child (born last year). With him, I got dizzy really bad a LOT and needed a lot of help. I'm due in 3 weeks with our second. I have gestational diabetes with this one and still get dizzy. My GD puts me at a higher risk for several things...including stillbirth. Oh, I also have endometriosis which had already put me at a higher risk for miscarriage. These are things a person cannot see...but they're real elements that have had me depend on people (mainly my DH) for their help. If that makes me appear "princess" to outsiders, so be it...but my concern is for my health and the health & safety of my children. Even with a perfect pregnancy, it's hard. It's not easy carrying all this weight around, which hurts your body. I can barely bend over anymore. It's a struggle to just put on my shoes and even clothes sometimes. I've learned it's very easy to be critical of something you've never been through...and then once you go through it, you see exactly why so many women need the help they do. Yes, there are women who take it over the top, but sometimes it can be hard to tell who is doing it merely for attention and who really needs the help. But as others have stated, it's generally those who have the princess complex outside of pregnancy that continue to have it during. In any case, it doesn't make pregnancy an easy journey.

Thankfully, I would hope the majority of people would give up there seat to you. I know I would! Congrats and good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

Oh dear lord, you poor thing. That must be completely horrible to deal with being dizzy like that when you probably already feel like your going to puke all day. And I have never had GD, but had a friend with it and holy man that must be horrible to go through.

Well then you need to explain exatly what your so mad about when you say that they act like they cannot lift a finger.

And really now, simmer down.

I get what you are saying. As another poster said earlier, the "princess" ones are probably also "princesses" when they are not pregnant. C'mon, we ALL know the type, don't we. You just know they are gonna work it for all it's worth during the pregnancy.

I know people like that and I don't overly care for them when they are not pregnant.

OP, you just need to work on your delivery a bit.

 

[JennMouse32]

its exactly what i said! most of the ones ive been around act like they cant do anything when they are able to..

if a preggo lady got on a bus of course one would give up a seat, if something happened and she fell that could kill the baby, i am not heartless...

i get annoyed with the princess ones..​

 

[xoprincessmomxo]

Honestly, the OP is picking fights about children, and pregnant ladies. Does it really get any worse than that? Just because it's in a pretty purple font does not make it any less ugly.

Would you mind if I ask what your age is? Because you seem like your angry that pregnant people get more attention that you do. At least that is the way it comes across. Because really, these types of things do not get most adults undies in a bunch.

You're right. But I am pretty sure that anyone over 30 is elderly to a teenager.

last time i checked 25 wasnt a teenager...​

 

[Mrs.Toad]

goofygirl, is that you?


On your vents, #1, for the most part, I agree, except that very little kids don't have the coordination or upper arm strength to stand up and hang on, on a bus. I'll always give up a seat for a mom and her toddler or preschooler, who will usually sit on her lap.

#2, different strokes for different folks. I guess I don't understand what the problem is. Some of us aren't lucky enough to have living parents or brothers/sisters willing to watch our kids for a week, so we don't get to take adults only vacations very often. Luckily, we enjoy our family time and are able to get enough couples time at home, so it doesn't bother me, why does it bother you?

#3, I've never met a pregnant woman that expected to be treated like a princess. That would be a little annoying. Having been pregnant and knowing how uncomfortable those last couple of months are, (and knowing women who threw up 10-20 times a day during the first trimester) though, I will treat other pregnant women nicely.

 

[connorlevismom]

Kind of what I was thinking! I have been sitting here wondering how a grown woman would get so uptight about these things. Kind of why I asked her age....
