I found a note from my neighbour congratulating me on my new baby but it turned out to be BRUTAL – I’m fuming
A WOMAN found a note from a neighbour congratulating her on a new baby - but it turned out to be brutal.
The mum-of-two shared the insensitive note left on her doorstep "overnight" on Mumsnet.
The woman, who goes by the username AngryMumOfTwo, explained she has been living in a privately rented flat for four years ago is raising two children.
Her latest was born over Christmas last year and, like all newborns, sometimes cried at night but "isn't too bad" compared to eldest, who "did cry a lot".
"We get along with most people who live here. We're generally quiet and private as is all the other residents," the post read.
"Over 50 per cent of them are elderly, though this isn't a retirement block of flats. We're the youngest, but there are others not much older then us."
MORE ON RUDE NOTES
But one irate resident didn't think so and left her a rude note earlier this year.
"We don't know who left the note. It is obviously unsigned. We have our suspicions but that's all," she wrote.
"If they had knocked on the door and spoken to us, that wouldn't be a problem.
"For their own sake, they better hope I don't find out who it is. I'm furious. It's horrid."

She added: "The residents we've spoken to over the last few days have said how lovely she is but no noise complaints.
"Our immediate neighbours and the lady directly below are nice people so I don't think it's them."
The note read: "Congratulations on your new baby. Also, as this building is home to older residents, we do not appreciate you moving in just to breed.
"Please kindly shut up your baby at nights so that the rest of us can sleep."
Mumsnet users were disgusted by the note.
"They are a vile person," one person wrote.
"Just screw the note up and leave it on the mat of the person you think wrote it then forget all about it!" suggested another.
"Rude and ridiculous, enjoy your new baby and try to ignore them, if they don't like it they will have to move elsewhere," wrote a third.
