OMG this one really gets under my skin. I had my first out of wedlock at 17 BUT it was with a guy I loved and am now about to have our third with and going to celebrate our 5th anniversary. If someone had said something this insensitive to me i would have bitched them up one side and down another! I did have nurses that were a little “careful” about their wording until i assured them that I knew the dad and we were engaged but they were always sensitive towards the situation.

yes you are. I would have yelled back “what, how can you not remember me?”

I’m 28 and I look like I’m still a teenager, so when I was pregnant, I’d get lots of dirty looks from people when they thought I wasn’t looking. Didn’t bother me, though. It was their problem, not mine. I was proud of my bump, and now I’m proud of my 2 month old, so there!

A very inconsiderate nurse said something like this to my cousin after the birth of her second baby. Her husband had been killed in a car accident a few months after they found out she was pregnant so the entire pregnancy was extremely emotional and difficult for her to begin with. The sad thing about the statement was it was clearly noted in her chart that her husband was deceased and to be “sensitive” to the matter. I’m scared to think of what her version of insensitive would be…

The first doc I went to when pregnant with my first son said something similar. It made me burst into tears since my DH had abandoned me during my pregnancy. Sounds like these docs need some serious sensitivity training!

I am 27, but look much younger (apparently about 15 is what I’ve been told) so even with my wedding rings on and my husband right beside me, I’ve heard comments about “children having children” and wondering who the father is… like it’s not obvious, my son looks just like his daddy!

Ally, I’m 27 and still resisted taking off my wedding ring until I almost couldn’t because I didn’t want anyone making any assumptions about me.

I wore mine around my neck just for this very reason…I was 20 when my husband and I conceived our dear son.
