Let People Be Happy. šŸ’›

I never thought I’d have to say this… but if someone wants to celebrate their pregnancy—whether it’s the first day or the final month—let them.

Someone on here just blocked me because I chose to share my excitement about this journey. After being repeatedly told not to ā€œcelebrate too earlyā€ and to ā€œwait until I’m further along,ā€ I finally stood up for myself and said:
ā€œPardon me for being excited. This is my first pregnancy, and I’m going to post about it every day if I want to. I’ve waited for this for so long.ā€

And just like that… blocked.
I’m honestly still in shock. I don’t even know what to say.

But here’s what I do know: I won’t let anyone dull this joy. Every single day of this journey matters to me. Every moment is worth celebrating. šŸ’•

To anyone who’s ever been made to feel small for being happy—please know your joy is valid. Don’t let anyone take that from you.

Please don't let a few rude people ruin this for you. Many people including myself really enjoy your post and joy over being pregnant. Shout it out to the world to hear! Don't stop sharing your story

Yeah, any time we are excited or happy about pretty much anything, someone is going to try to ruin it.

As far as people blocking - they do that a lot over petty reasons, try not to take that aspect of SW personally.

May you continue to experience this joy.
It is possible that the person who blocked you suffered a miscarriage or lost a child in infancy... making their concern for you also a matter of trauma for them.
I’m sorry that happened. This is a wonderful time for you and your family, people should be supportive and pleased.
And I imagine most of us are very happy for you.

Just a few out there are carrying their own clouds and as you've said, don’t let them try to steal the joy.

Very best wishes. 😊

That’s just an old wives tale.Cherish every moment you have with this pregnancy. Don’t let anyone with old fashioned ways steal your joy. You deserve this time.

Yeah, in case you're not aware, there's an "old tradition" that says a woman should wait to announce the pregnancy because saying something too soon is "bad luck."
It's ok to continue that, but no one should get angry for breaking tradition. Hell, it may not even be apart of your culture.

@TiaRose

You have all the right to be excited, and it's just old traditions founded on nothing. I'm happy for you, and wish a happy and healthy child.

The concept of someone wanting you to feel bad, when it's important that you feel good, is horrid. Try not to let it get to you though.ā¤

A lot of damaged people on this site seem to need to try to damage others. Take no notice and enjoy what you have to the full.

People are crazy.. sorry they were rude.. who knows what their problem is

Some people are just inherently sad and miserable. They don’t know how to handle when someone is happy.

Go ahead and celebrate it and let the miserable ones suffer in silence.
