Question

Am I wrong for being so angry at Fiance's Grandmother for comment she made on our Late M/C ???

So my fiance and I live in a house behind his grandparents house, And right after our late m/c at 19 weeks we were both so devastated emotionally, mentally & physically. We had been ttc for 3 months or so before I got pg. Well 2 days after the loss his Grandmother asked him to come over & pick up some mail of ours that was in her mailbox. Well while he walked up she said "I heard what happened" & he said yeah expecting the "I'm so sorry" bit...instead she says "Should have used a condom. Maybe you should do that next time" Now this infuriated me! That she could be so insensitive about it & 2 days later! . She then scoffed at a picture of my daughters ultrasound that they had put in a shutterfly mothers day book for her before the m/c. This has left me so bitter at this woman that I have told my fiance she will NEVER hold any child of mine. His whole family was at our house yesterday & that was all I could think everytime I looked at her

Your not in the wrong, I went through the same thing 8 months ago and its one of the worst feelings in the world. You feel like one really understands what your going through and to have that happen is quite insensitive. Im sorry love. Feel free to PM me if you need someone to talk to.Iv been there and actually had some nasty remarks too from my fiance's fam.

Wooo! you my dear have every RIGHT to be pissed off. Sometimes people speak without realizing their words could hurt. There are a million reasons she could have said what she did and acted the way she did. Bottom line is to swallow pride and ask her for yourself. For all you know she could be handling this loss in a different way then you, she might not like you for some crazy reasoning that could be fixed, she could be bitter and remembering something from her past, she might just be a plain bitter old lady. Now i am not sticking up for her because i have been through a loss myself and i dare anyone to bring that up negatively! All i am trying to say is be angry as long as you want, but eventually you will have to speak with this lady. After all she is family.....

Go ahead and be pissed at her! I am the same way with my dh's grandmother at the moment. I have recently been losing a bit of weight and she told me that if I keep messing around losing weight that I'm going to fall pregnant and maybe I'll be able to actually carry it this time...So yeah I totally understand.

If people would just mind their own business and remember this old saying: " If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all." It's my husband's favorite when we feel violated.

Thank you all so much for your replies, and I know eventually it's gonna get brought up. However she won't be notified when I get pregnant again I'll let his parents tell her and maybe she'll take a hint why. My Fiance who's pretty pissed also pretty much says he dares her to say something negative when I get pregnant again so I guess I'll see how it all plays out.
