Unwanted comments

I'm wondering if you'll ladies share with me some of your comebacks for comments from family/friends asking about if the second pregnancy was planned.  I know I'm going to get these comments from everyone and I'm not interested in dealing with them.  Just wondering if you have any clever comments to respond with.

    I haven't gotten any yet (still pregnant with #2), but I think if it happens, I'll probably just turn it around on them and say "why do you ask?"  I figure that should shut them down pretty quickly, or else they'll have to fess up to some tacky reaso

    My generic is "yea, the first one is so awesome, we figured we'd do the world a favor and get started on the next."

    My response depends on my mood. 

    "How it that any of your business?" or "Does it matter?"

    "You do know that I know how babies are made, right?"

    "It was so much fun making the last one we figured we would go for it again."

    Thanks ladies. I know I will get comments from family and they somehow think my business is their business but really are looking for gossip and I will not fall for their tricks!

    My favorite answers can be found here https://www.pregnantchicken.com/pregnant-chicken-blog/2011/1/16/clever-pregnancy-comebacks-part-two.html. DH really wanted me to use the last one under "was this an accident?". :)

    Ugh, my least favorite comment has to be "You do know what causes this?"  No, please elaborate and feel me in!

    I've dealt with a fair share of comments... When I was pregnant with number 2, after having her and now being pregnant with number 3. We'll have 3 under 3 in September.

    I have to admit I do get pissed and complain/vent to DH. I don't really r

    I wore DD3 all the time while grocery shopping until she was over a year. She was content, I was content. It kept her 3 year old sister in the cart while I shopped. It was the week of Thanksgiving and I came around a corner pushing a heaping cart wit
