pregnancy 1: miscarriage
pregnancy 2: died an hour after birth.
pregnancy 3: let's try again... hopefully, this one will be healthy. i don't care what it is as long as it's healthy.

Women take this more seriously than men. I know one case where the guy accepted the situation and moved on. The woman was still lingering over it after a few weeks. It is definitely harder on the women.

Lingering over what after a few weeks? Miscarriage? Their baby dead just after its born? You act like a few weeks is absurd. I'd say a few weeks would be typical for a miscarriage, and having other complications much further along, such as close to when the baby should be born would have pretty long lasting impact. In fact, I'd guess most women would carry the emotional baggage from that for the rest of their lives.

i didn't make it to be funny, though. i made it to point out that people who have a healthy kid, regardless of gender, should stfu and be happy about it.

You probably should've been clear about that in the original post then, as until you clarified it made it seem like you were being derogatory about people like that.

I agree.

My best friend's wife was pregnant, and at about 7 months, the baby died. She had to have labor induced, go through the labor, and have a baby they knew was already dead. It was perfectly formed, just small. Still no idea why he died.

She later had a baby that came out perfect. We were all very nervous throughout that entire pregnancy. Sometimes you have to just let nature do what it wants.

Oh, and yes....the couple in OP's post are definitely "parents".

Yes, yes they do.

My wife had a miscarriage the first time she was pregnant. Still has a lingering bit of sadness with that, after two healthy kids came later.

A friend's wife that already had two girls miscarried a boy. A few years ago, he told me she was very sad one day, and when he wanted to know why, she told him their son would have graduated high school that year.

I had a childhood friend who's parents wanted a girl so desperately. They had 7 sons. They had at least an equal number of miscarriages that had been deemed females. :(

No idea if they ended up having a girl but I think they did.

why wouldn't they? It's their very own young. A baby is not like that turd that rushes out when you have to take a sh!t.

yeah, they become obsessed to an unbelievable degree in having kids. I have never understood it. I have known a couple to break up because they could not have kids, they just kept THROWING fvcking SH*TLOADS of money at doctors and it never happened for them and I think then they just gave up on each other.

By "take this" I mean having kids.

Are you kidding? It's funny how much interest I get from women when they finally realize how much I make.

Not to be racist - but in my area the Puerto Rican/Dominican and Black women wouldn't bat an eye my way until I somehow work in my salary (rounded) in a conversation. After they find out; "oh shit, you should take me to a movie or something."

Bitches here in the Bronx are poor, and becoming a sugar daddy for some young chick is really easy. In my building there are about 30 single mothers who don't do shit for a living who get by on child support and welfare.

My best friend in the world makes 80k/yr and he is one of the most beaten down people I know, because of child support.

I saw my brother suffer for over 21 years paying child support for his kids.

I know another guy who told me he wanted his kids to die in an accident so he could live his life.

Child support is bullshit.

my grandparents on my father's side (good old French Catholics) had like 11 pregnancies total, 5 of which ended in miscarriage.

still managed to pop out 6 healthy kids (though one of my uncles died as a teenager, I think as the result of a heart defect).

Can we still be unhappy about being out $1500 every month?
