We've become the town freak-show, and these kiddos aren't here yet.

We announced that we're pregnant with triplets on FB (I have a really limited number of friends, intentionally on there) the other day and allowed family to start telling people. DH had 3 people come into our store yesterday asking if it was true that we're having triplets.Totally random people that we barely even know. Of course a few people have already asked "are they natural?"

    I'm so curious what kind of store you own :)

    I'm sure you'll get a lot of lookie-lou's but I hope you get a lot of support as well! Maybe a community can come together and rally around your NATURAL (hilarious, can kids be unnatural? I would answer that with, "I sure hope there isn't a shark in there or something!" or "Wouldn't it be a hoot if they came out dressed?!" HAHA) kiddos.

    "Full hands are better than empty hands."  That's my motto.  People are ignorant and it's too bad you have to deal with it.  I think it's awesome you're having triplets and so will lots of other people.  Hang in there!

    When stupid people ask me if my kids are "natural" I either say Aren't all babies natural or are you babies natural! I can't stand when people ask that, just be happy for someone!

    We get the "Are they natural?" question all the time. I usually come back with, "No they're fake....which reminds me I need to change their batteries! Thanks!". Just wait until they are here and you go out into public :)

    Well... triplets are exciting and unusual. You are bound to get insensitive questions. I've never been bothered by the "natural" questions. I guess I'm an oddball. Just try to remember that most people aren't asking the question to be mean, they are just too ingnorant to know either 1) not to ask, or 2) how to ask.
