I even had a coworker congratulate me on the baby (and we had told nobody so uh...he said he heard from someone. I chalked it up to a bad coincidence). People feel really bad and apologize, but most of the time there isn't anything to do besides have that glass of wine when you get home, unfortunately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reminders#post-2721 Thu, 06 Oct 2011 17:09:07 +0000 MaisyMay 2721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How do you deal with reminders about your MC? I'm not necessarily talking about people mentioning it (which I am pretty okay with), but when people who knew you were pregnant ask about pregnancy/baby, friends who are pregnant, that sort of thing.</p> <p>I was at a doctor's appointment and the nurse who took my vitals looked at her computer and said, "hmm, the computer says your pregnant, 16 weeks. But that's not right?" No, it's not. I asked her to change it, but 10 minutes later the doctor said it was still there. Ugh.</p> <p>Also, I have a facebook friend from college who is due 4 days after our duedate. Two more friends have recently annouced pregnancies, one who got married the same day as us.</p> <p>When we were on vacation last weekend a stranger asked us when we were going to start a family, an absolute stranger! I let Hubs answer that and he just said "in a while." </p> <p>So what do you do? Absolute strangers, acquaintances, friends, there are a lot of reminders out there. </p>
