Public Service Announcement

People, people, people......

I am becoming a recluse.....because EVERY WHERE I GO I ANSWER THE SAME QUESTIONS OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

It always starts off with....."How are you feeling?"

Then here comes the terrific ten...

1. When are you due?
2. Are you having twins?
3. Are you ready?
4. What are you having?
5. Got a name picked out yet?
6. What does your son think about it?
(ummm, he's 18 months old)

7. Is your husband excited for another boy?
8. Are you gonna go for the girl?
OR are you sad your not having a girl?

9. Do you think you will have more kids?
10. Which hospital are you going to? (here we go...)

I make a great effort to make a run for it before they can hit all 10....because I know the VERY NEXT PERSON I TALK TO WILL ASK THE EXACT SAME QUESTIONS! Even strangers at the grocery store stop me and to ask the top 4 questions....

My hubs...when he pays attention....can recognize the look on my face and come save me..although I know he deals with this himself quite a bit.

So I have a proposition....can we agree to a 3 question maximum? That would be great.

I have joked with my hubs that I am just gonna get a marker and write all my answers on a white t-shirt and wear that anytime I go out in public or to a party...lol.

Ahhh, I should be grateful that people care ...but I am a moody pregnant woman....

So please take all this into consideration when talking to a pregnant woman....YOU will be her favorite person to converse with if you don't pepper her with the same questions as everyone else!

AND,  under no circumstance is it appropriate to ask the question...

Was this one planned?
or
Was this one an accident?

I will tell you that you are being very rude...just like I told the person who asked me this over the weekend...

This little angel was not planned, but he was not an accident....
When you know the recipe to make a baby, and then you follow the recipe...it shouldn't be a huge surprise for ya...right?
