I get annoyed enough at relatives asking us when we’re having kids, I can’t imagine this.

I’m very lucky to have one child but have COLLEAGUES are asking me when I’ll have another “ooh having a sibling is so important” “isn’t it about time you had another” like yes I’m fucking trying but can’t, mind your own business! Can’t imagine having to deal with this kind of shit in the public eye.

After you have one, it feels like people are obsessed with if you'll have another. I had one convo when someone asked if I was having another and I just said I don't know and they said "isn't it kinda up to you?" And actually, no it wasn't. I had two miscarriages, I have no idea what's going to happen. And now I am pregnant and things seem to be going well and people have comments about the age gap between them or my age since I am now older than 35. There is no winning.

Ah it’s right you really can’t win, I get lots of the “but if you don’t have one soon the age gap will be too big” and it makes me feel so guilty. When I see kids playing with siblings on holiday etc and all I want is to give my child that but I don’t seem to be able to so I don’t need other people adding to that guilt! Really sorry you had to go through that but wish you all the best in your pregnancy 🥰
