If one more person says.......

"Your going to have your hands full!" -and I don't now?  You dont think I can handle another baby?  Why are you saying this?

"this is your 4th!!!  You look waaaaay too young to be having your 4th!"  -um thanks, I guess? (btw I am 29)

 "Another girl, oh I bet you were you hoping for a boy?"  -no not really, just wanting a healthy baby.  Whats wrong with little girls again?

"Are you really going to go back to work?"  Why wouldn't I?  I am working now with three, does having one more make it illigal to work?

 OK.... that has been the last two week in a nutshell. :P Cant wait to hear all the after baby stupidness that comes when she is born.

 

ITS FRIDAY< THANK GOD!

    My favorite is, "You haven't figured out how this happens yet?"  I'm on my third.  A girlfriend of mine was pregnant at the same time as me when we both had our first.  She is about 6 months older than me (I'm 30) and she had her FIFTH last year.  Big deal.

    "Oh, I was worried to ask if you were pregnant, because I thought you maybe were just gaining weight..."

    Okay, saying THAT to me makes me feel so much better that you didn't ask and chance me saying "no"...

    People are idiots.  I think it's one of those things in today's society that's not the norm (having large families, especially so young) so people seem to think it's somehow appropriate to comment on it. 

    Here too--THEY'RE NOT PAYING FOR YOUR CHILDREN!  Why in the world does it affect them?  What's wrong with a bunch of little girls?  Why does it matter to them if you go back to work?  It seems so stupid to comment on any of it.

    This is a regular comment for me. I live in Texas, I'm well aware I'm going to be pregnant during the hottest time of the year...

    I'm sorry you have to deal with that! A good friend just had her fourth at 23 and she is doing fine (and her 2nd oldest has Autism!). People don't think at all about what they are saying.

    I'm just tired of the, "They know what causes pregnancies" crap. Yes. I do too. Tracking ovulation and having sex a bunch of times around when the same time you are ovulating. Worked like a charm, thanks!

    The other comment I hate is when the talk about the size of your bump! "You're only X amout of weeks along? Is it twins?" or if you're too small in their opinion "Oh so tiny! Dont forget you're eating for two now!" Oh yeah, i forgot to eat today... annoying people need to mind their own business.

    This. Because, you know, my college degree and whatnot didn't teach to me to count months and realize when July and August fell. I HATE when people say this. It's like they take pleasure in telling me, too.
