I'm Currently Feeling: | Id definitely be pissed. Looks fine the way it is. Some things should just be left unsaid. If she honestly didnt like the color of the room she should have not said anything and just went on with the "nice gesture" as to paint the room in the first place. Now that you know the reasoning I personally would tell her you like the walls the way it is and she can kindly think of another gift. Like maybe something to go with your lilac walls! xo |

I'm Currently Feeling: | The nursery looks wonderful! I have no idea what she's talking about,and yes I'd be pretty offended!
Like someone bringing me baby clothes because they don't like how I dress my baby.
You know how they say,it's the thought that counts and the thought is pretty damn RUDE! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I would be super pissed if a friend said that to me. I can't stand people that think they have a "right" to interfere with things like that. Offering to help you decorate after would have been WAY more appropriate but IMO I think your nursery looks absolutely lovely the way it is. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'd have been annoyed too! Who has the time to worry about what colours someone else's walls are?! Sounds like she has not enough to worry about!!!
Ignore her!
Tell her to buy you a year's worth of nappies instead!

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thanks girls - I thought I was being preggy sensitive!!
I'm gonna text her today and say thanks for the offer, but we do actually like it the way it is!!
If or when we change the colour, we will decide then what we want and do it ourselves!!!! |
