Is it ok to vent here?
in BNOTB
Friends of ours are trying to have a baby. That is ALL they talk about every single time we see them! We could be talking about the weather, and during the same conversation it turns into baby conversation.
Recently they started fertility treatments. Now she is 110% sure they will have twins by next Christmas. Oy! Don't get me wrong, I hope their dream of becoming parents becomes a reality. Thats something my husband and I both want in the near future as well. But I don't talk about it 24/7 or every time I see my friends!
Ok vent over! Anyone dealing with the same thing?
Re: Is it ok to vent here?
I know exactly how you feel! 3 couples that stood up in our August wedding are now expecting. So every time we do anything with them, that is all they talk about. It is also difficult to have a conversation with them now, because we don't share the same views.
The way we look at it is we will learn from their pregnancy and parenting mistakes instead, and after listening to all these conversations, we will know what to expect. In the end, it's between you and your husband on when you want to have children. Even if that means putting up with their constant baby conversations.

literally BRIJ i am you. My two maids of honors from our august wedding are pregnant and so is another couple in the weddinglol.
One friend barely talks about it except if you ask. And she is sure to ask what is going on in your life etc. One lives in another state so I don't see her that often.
but the last one...OMG
she told "everyone" like her entire facebook list etc at 9 weeks. We knew at day 2 after she took the test. so we have heard about it since day 2 privately and since week 9, everytime i log into instagram or facebook or my email, we have another Set of photos of onseies she bought for teh baby. Yesterday was her week 12 appointment and she "celebrated" by buying a crib. Today I recieved an email with 14 photos documenting them setting it up. I wish i could say i was exaggerating.
Oh Brina, I am so sorry. This last paragraph is exactly like our first couple who got pregnant. They told us 2 days after they found out, also. She would've been 4 weeks at that time. They are also very competitive with us, so it's been a huge slap in the face to us that they've been married longer than us and are having a baby before us. But even last night she posted a cookie on facebook that she drew a sperm on and wrote "fastest swimmer". Then her caption was "just some innocent cookie decorating." There's also every single picture she ever posts with family, friends, etc, of her hugging her belly with her hands so you can definitely see her bump with her baggy shirts. I understand being excited, but not every post or word out of your mouth needs to be about the baby.
I think after seeing everything they talk about and especially post on Facebook, I've told H that I don't even want to post we're pregnant on there. And I'm sorry, but not every post is going to be about us being pregnant. We still have lives and are humanbeings.
OP thanks for posting about this. It sounds like there are quite a few of us with this same issue.
