Mine are: Will you try for a boy? When will you get pregnant with your 3rd? Is your husband upset about having another girl?
What are some questions that you have heard a lot lately?
-
When are you going to have another one?
When are you going to let the baby spend the night over my house?
When are you going to stop breastfeeding? -
How can you possibly be Team Green? Isn't the suspense killing you? (yes)
-
OMG, when are you due? or just "Whoa". (39 weeks today)
-
Do you think you're going to make it till Jan 10 (my edd)? Do you think you're going to deliver early? I think he's going to come early, don't you? Don't you think he's going to be a really big baby?
Every.single.person. at work thinks that I am a) huge and b) doomed to have a 12lb monstrosity or c) deliver super early.
-
Are you breastfeeding?
Wow, good for you! When are you going to quit?
-
Are you sure you're pregnant?
I guess my bump is still small.
-
Is your baby sleeping through the Night yet?
When are you going to have another? -
@Andrea: I want a small bump!
-
Who has curly hair?
Because DD has LOTS of curly hair at 7 months and both DH and I have straight/wavy hair.
-
Just people asking when/if we're planning on having kids. I think people think we're odd for "waiting" to have kids. It's like they think if you don't get pregnant right after the wedding, there's something wrong with you *sigh*
-
Are you allowed to have caffeine while pregnant?
(then I punch whoever asked, so they only ask once)
*ETA*
Have you decided on a name yet? Are you sure? Did you decide already but you're just not telling? Which ones are you considering?How are you feeling? (I hate this question, prego or not...I'll tell you if I feel bad, otherwise leave me alone! I know people are just trying to be nice though)
-
Was it planned? (insert groans here...)
-
@Revel:
I hear that one a lot too!
-
@JoJoGirl: ME TOO! I'm going to snap on someone re: being Team Green. That said I am not in suspense at all. It's as if that's the only part of pregnancy. There is so much to focus on for me right including the health of the baby (I have some minor complications one of which could turn into a major one). DH and I are loving TG and allowing ourselves to focus on the important stuff.
-
When are you and DH going to have a baby?
If only you knew family member.
-
No questions.. Just people telling me I should have 3, 4 kids. Hahah all Korean older women from my church in cA. They want me to have lots and lots of babies.
My mom thinks they crazy and has been telling me not to listen and to stop at 2. One of each is perfect says my mom. -
@autumnlove: people are so intrusive and dumb! "Yeah, my husband is really devastated we're having another healthy baby girl!"
I hear "How are you feeling?" and "Are you ready for the baby?" at least 1 billion thousand times a day:)
Also, God forbid I don't immediately call anyone in my family back or reply to a text at lightening speed. It causes a frantic domino effect of "ARE YOU IN LABOR???"
-
@BKCaribBaby: The doctor who did our NT scan (not the tech, but the doc who came in with results) actually said "Great choice on not finding out, not enough people do that these days!" haha. My DH was like, kicking me.. "SEE?? SEE??".... yes, dear...
-
Does he sleep through the night?
NO (mostly).
Wow, he's 6 months!
Yes, I know, I wish he slept through the night.
-
How are you feeling?
How is your daughter?
What are you doing for Thanksgiving? -
How is your son coping with his new baby sister?
Are you planning on having a 3rd?
Are you happy you have one of each?
-
@autumnlove: it just means that I gain weight aaaalllll over, not great!
-
Does she have a name?
-
@autumnlove: It's mostly been from friends that I would tell anyway - except also from SO's mom! Urgh. Mostly I expected it because we're not married, but it still surprises me how nosy people are - I hear this does not get any better as pregnancy progresses.
-
@Revel: I had a friend who got pregnant before they got married and got this question ALL THE TIME!!! I found out after the fact they had done IVF!! So I would say the answer was.. yes.
People are stupid.
-
@JoJoGirl: I know! Mine did so, too. It's funny because I find the doctors and older folks think it's great. It's all people our generation who are pretty flabbergasted. Now I just nod and smile or give people a blank stare.
-
@JoJoGirl: She must have really hated that question then! But having done IVF is just a great answer... I just get to confirm what they're thinking... surprise
-
"You're still here??" My co workers say this to me everyday! Yes I'm still here!!!
-
When are you having another?
-
@MamaMoose: UGH the worst. I always want to snap back "oh yeah had the baby yesterday but still felt like coming in!"
-
How are you feeling? I want to respond, same as yesterday, are you going to ask my every single work day? I am pregnant, not dying.
Have you decided on a name? Oh come on, you can tell me, I won't tell anyone?
-
@Smurfette: Ugh the name questions! LOL
-
@PrincessBaby: hahah! my mom did that too. She said whenever she saw me call her, she thought I was calling to say I was in labor.
-
@Revel: Ugh!! Rude.
I get a lot of, "where did she get the blonde hair?" "Are you breastfeeding?" "Are you done with two?"
...fun.
-
"Do you know what you're going to name him yet?"
-
@HeatherlovesKenny: I think it's weird when people you don't know very well ask about BFing. I've gotten asked that by the most random people, and at the end of the day, we're still talking about my boobs and that's just weird!
-
@Leialou: I get that all.the.time. If you could only snap back with some passive aggressive comment!
I get the: when are you guys gonna have a baby? Any news? What are you waiting for? Are you pregnant? Come on, you can tell me? Are you even trying? Don't you want a baby? And from DH's lively grandma I get: why you empty? Why you not make me a baby?
It's so great that I have so many lovely nosey ppl in my life to make sure I don't forget things, like in case I had forgotten that I can't seem to get pregnant, but they make sure to remind me frequently. Thanks guys!
-
@mrs. bird: I used to get "Are you pregnant yet?" sometimes while I was holding a drink in my hand. That always made me laugh so hard, like "Yeah, we are, I just decided to celebrate it with these here 4 glasses of wine!"
-
"are you sure there's only one in there?"
Wtf people. Wtf.
I hear that one a lot too!
People are stupid.
