Today, a pregnant friend who is due in 2 weeks posted a picture of a baby on Facebook. I commented congratulations. She's still pregnant. It was a picture of her baby who died 3 years ago. FML

your friend has some issues. I feel sorry for her new baby who will never be more the a replacement

Because you're not allowed to grieve a loss or have other children after a child has died?

Not the case. I had a miscarriage & am currently pregnant but this baby is in no way a replacement. No baby could replace the one I lost. Rather it's a blessing

WTF. A brand new, completely different human being is not just a "replacement". What a disgusting thing to say.

You're the only one with issues #60. What you say is bullshit in every possible way.

Well, I had an acquaintance who named her 2nd child the same name as the first child she had who died at age 2. The worse thing is that the dead child is buried on her property and the kid gets to walk outside and see their name on a tombstone.

That's so sad :( sorry to hear about the loss of your friend's child. I'm sure you didn't know, OP. just apologize and delete the comment. I'm sure your friend will understand. It was a simple accident.

To those who say it's creepy to post a dead baby pic on FB. I have a friend who lost hers to leukemia and she once and a while post pictures and says how much she misses her. It's not my thing as I would not put something so private on FB but if that helps her grieve and getting support, it's all good. The timing of your friend was maybe not the best but I guess that she probably means so that although a new baby is coming into her life, she will never forget the other one.

since she is your friend, shouldn't you have known she did not have the baby yet?

what if they only became friends recently ,and she didnt know that her friend had been pregnant before and lost that baby .and also while in your in hospital the last thing on your mind is contacting every single person you know or facebooking it .

The woman could have had it the night before and not told anyone yet, and the OP could have thought that the photo was the woman's way of announcing it! If she'd gone into labour early, I'm sure she could have easily forgotten her phone on the way to hospital or wanted to tell just family first and tell her friends via facebook...

That's not your fault. You came to a logical conclusion.

I understand getting support from people, but when it's so close to her due date posting that on such a public forum without any sort of "RIP" or something is kind of crazy. Still, I'm sure she never meant any harm by it, and neither did you. She probably understands.

I could understand her wanting to remember her baby, but a caption ( like in remeberance or rip) would of helped . it wasnt your fault , you didnt know . plus a few people probably would of thought that too with her being that close to her due date. once things calm down im sure she will understand it was an honest mistake.
