#465918, "Showing off the babies, and some decisions."
Wed May-26-10 06:50 PM by roe
So first off,
I had promised my husband that I wouldn't post any pictures of our babies, but seeing as I created such a huge ruckus, it seems like I should just show them off.
I am extremely proud of myself. People can find that annoying. And that's okay. I originally joined this forum when I found out I was pregnant with triplets and was terrified. But I've found more hatred, jealousy, and bitterness here than support. I may post again someday when I have a question, but I doubt it. I went through this whole pregnancy discussing stuff with my doctors, family, and listening to my instincts. I don't see why that would change now. In some way, I have been feeding all this negativity as well. I should have bailed when I saw how negative people here were. I'm not afraid of being without this forum. For me, it hasn't been the support that it's been to some of you. And many women here, are just lurking, looking for an excuse to load their unhappiness on others. I'm not about that.
Wishing you all the best. And thanking those who did help when I asked for it,
Roe & babies.

I'd be super careful with posting pics online. Those things can get stolen and used by fakers very easily. They may have already been posted elsewhere. Just sayin'.

What's scary is your pictures have already gone viral. I saw them three times on Facebook before I even came over here and looked at them. Once you put them out there, they are out there forever.

A very wise decision! LOL. I AM glad that I got to see your little darlings before you deleted the pics.
Edited to add: BTW, I owe you a big "thank you"

Very cute kids. I'm truly glad they are all home and doing well.
I'm glad you took the photos down though - gosh I would have been embarressed to have everyone see my messy, unmade bed!! Your nails just look gorgeous in the photo (where do you get them done?).
By the way - I'm one of 'those' folks you offended. Some of us (most of us) talked to our Dr's, prayed, listened to family, followed our instincts and spent weeks and weeks in the hospital - only to come home with part of our trio. I delivered heathy trips and the NICU screwed up a procedure causing the loss of my baby girl. I found your post extremely offensive.
If you had a problem with Michele then why didn't you just e-mail her directly or send her a PM or talk to the mods on this board. You chose to put that post on a public forum. In my opinion, you got what you deserved.

Seriously??? "I don't even care" is your response to someone that had a baby DIE!?!? Yet, you expect the world to stop and the board to bow down to you because you feel that people were too harsh in their advice to you to take it easy. Are you like 12 years old?? The people that gave you that advice only gave it to you because they wanted you to have a long and successful pregnancy that resulted in healthy babies. You don't get it at all. So cold....

Whoa........Wait just a minute. Did you just tell a mother who lost one of her children, "Whatever, I don't even care."? You truly are a raging BITCH!
Im wondering why it's OK for a new member to come on this board and offend members who have been here for MANY, MANY years yet when those members defend themselves they get banned or told to "be nice"? This just blows my mind!

Haven't you been banned like 75 times? It only took me 3650 posts and being a faithful dues paying member for 7 years.
Come on over to Facebook and check out Roe's pics that she deleted here. We are studying every nuance of her dirty bedroom, including the unmade bed and electical cords strewn all about. Tsk. Tsk. She's got it going down the shitter already.

75 might be a bit high. Yet, if you consider all the times I was banned, unbanned, re-banned, half-banned, told I was banned but not actually banned, threatened to be banned, banned but told publically I was not banned, and had my super secret new screen name - so you won't know it's really my alter ego - banned...well, I am fairly certain I hold the record. LOL!
Hey, on the brightside, it seems Gina has gained another friend. =) Good times!

It's just like my sister and I joke: Whoever calls "bitch" first, wins.
Roe called foul way back on her first "you let yourselves go" post, so now anyone who retaliates is just "jealous" or "mean." Unfortunately, she doesn't have it in her CHARACTER to admit she was wrong. Then again, she'll always have Gina on her side, won't she? Fighting for the underdog as always?

I was thinking the same thing.
Amazing.... "Whatever, I don't even care" ..... unbelievable. You really are shallow. It is really hard for me to believe that you are a triplet mom. You are so self absorbed it is unreal. I can't believe that you would come in here all smug when you are the one in the wrong. You offended MANY moms here and all you say is "Whatever" to one who calls you out on it.
Do you smell that ladies? That is the smell of a faker. I bet if we do a little digging, we can find that exact picture on another triplet moms page. Afterall, it is summer vacation for alot of the high schools. Triplet moms have a great record at ousting a faker.
Oh, and sweetie. For someone who was willing to put her kids lives at stake just to clean, your bed is a little messy.. Might want to straighten up a little prior to taking pics.
I'd like to think moms of multiples have a higher respect and understanding for other moms since we know how fragile life is. You are a rare breed to be able to come on here and say that you don't care about someone else's loss.
I thought you were leaving already. Don't let the door hit you....

I was going to address directly the rude "Lol, whatever" response but I have a feeling this person craves drama and is sitting back enjoying all this.
So instead of feeding into her need for attention, I'm just going to say to lsmiller: I'm sorry for the loss of your beautiful girl. I'm sorry that people can be callous and insensitive, especially people who you expect would understand. I'm sorry that bad things happen to good people, and I'm sorry that instead of showing compassion and humility at being given the wonderful gift of being a mother, a person chooses to use her "perfect" pregnancy as a way to hurt women who were less fortunate in their pregnancies.
