Upset. Angry. Sad. Frustrated.

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
So today marked my first "real" ultrasound, for the wellness of the baby and I finally saw my little bean (because honestly, that's what he looks like)! I'm all excited, I go to work, come home, sit down (because technically, I'm on a light bedrest...more on that later) and watch some tv and my nan comes in and asks about the ultra sound, I say it went good and she asks, "so you're going to have the procedure?" which is her nice way of saying "get an abortion" and I go no, and the first thing she says is, "well I can't take that burden, you have to go stay with your parents" and then she brings up my school loan that she helped me get and once the baby comes they are going to put a lien against her house, how if she knew the father I wouldn't have gotten pregnant, how if she had known in advance that my mother was pregnant (with my bff and older sister) that she would have made her get an abortion...and all other sorts of stuff that is just really upsetting. On top of that, she knows that I have had some vaginal bleeding and the doctor said it's partly due to stress and worrying; so what does she do? She tells me that my baby and I are virtually homeless! But then she ends the tirade with, "I just care about you all so much" WTF?!?!?!?!

She got pregnant with my eldest uncle out of wedlock, so you think she would be more understanding...I'm mad and very sad because I would have thought my Granny would be supportive. But apparently, she's not.

I'm so sorry that your Granny isn't supporting you. It sounds like she knows how hard it is to be in your situation and she just wishes you didn't have to go through that too. It may not seem like that now, but I really do think she cares about you.

She needs to get a filter on her mouth ASAP. UAV people who think it's ok to dump drama on a pregnant women should go stuff it somewhere else. It was totally mean for her to say all those awful, hateful things to you, and then end it with a totally bull ending of, but I really love you. Yeah, just like every other abusive person who gets talked about on here.

If that was your guy saying that, you'd be getting advice to get and your little peanut out of there. So, since I think sexism is silly, get you and your little peanut out of there.

I know, she has always said very mean and inappropriate things and I have no intention of staying here at all. I am just mad she chooses to say these things when she knows I am under so much stress. You are so right, I need to get me and my bean the h*ll out of here.

I think she does love you. She knows how hard it is, and she is probably stressed out at having another person in the house to care for. Even though it's your child, if you live with her, the baby will live with her.
I know it's hard, especially being under stress yourself, but maybe you need to find another place to live if the environment you're in is not conducive to bringing up your baby in peace.

Yea today she had another blow up where I said "please stop yelling at me, I'm stressed out and I don't want to lose my baby" to which she replies, "I don't care if you lose your baby"

So all that I'm sure she's just worried about you and what not, really cannot apply anymore. I'm taking my bean and getting the hell out of here.

I'm so sorry it has come to this. I hope you find a safe place to live so you can care for your unborn baby. You will be in my prayers.
