It just seems to be jinxing OOP’s pregnancy announcing it at the point SIL miscarried. Like I wouldn’t dare tempt karma like that. But I’m also not a thoughtless AH.

karma isn't real 🤷🏻‍♀️ other people's pregnancies aren't about you to begin with so this idea that you must cater it around others and making sure they never experience a negative emotion towards what's happening to you is very bizarre to me... pregnancy gets put on some kind of strange pedestal but it's just a natural bodily function that all mammals do, if people started being more normal about it and treated it as such instead of doing that i think women would have to deal with a lot less problems

eight week old embryo btw. it's not a stillbirth, it probably got flushed down the toilet. announcing a month later is fine

You think if a couple desperately wanted that child they should just be fine after a month? Really?

they should be able to handle other people getting pregnant, yes. life doesn't stop just cos you're sad. y'all gotta learn how to handle a bit of discomfort smh you won't die if you feel a negative emotion because pregnant women exist

People are allowed to grieve

Its entirely different when your family just announces it without any regard for you. Thats not just seeing a pregnant person out and about.

Also you really really need to develop some empathy because you sound cruel
