Every day I am tempted to get a shirt printed with the following list of answers to the questions that seem to go part and parcel with my big baby belly:
- I feel fine. Chances are I will feel fine when you ask me tomorrow too but ask anyway because I really want to tell you about every ache and pain and twinge.
- February 18th. I would possibly add to that “Oh, well that’s nice” when told that their daughter/niece/cousin/father-in-law’s/next door neighbor’s birthday is February 2/12/24/6/19/27th.
- No, it would not be cool if my baby is born on February 14th. I personally think it would be a real drag to have your birthday on any holiday, let alone the most commercial and meaningless holiday of all.
- No, I don’t know whether it is a girl or boy. That’s nice that your daughter/niece/cousin/father-in-law/next door neighbor found out though.
- No, the nursery is not ready. But you’ll be the first to know.
And this three-parter:
- Yes, of course we have some names picked out but no, we have not decided. I never once even considered picking out baby names before the prospect of having a baby was real. I will decide what to name my child when I have spent a little time with him/her.
- It’s none of your business. In response to the inevitable question of what my name choices are.
- “Mmm hmmm, that’s nice” to a) the list of names that you will inevitably tell me you like and b) the name that your daughter/niece/cousin/father-in-law/next door neighbor decided on.
It is nice that so many people seem concerned about my wellbeing these days but for the love of pete! I am getting asked the same four questions by everyone I meet, not excluding strangers (cashiers, co-workers I’ve never met before, and random shoppers at the grocery store, to name a few). And it’s worse when you actually know the person a little bit. I swear the same five ladies at work ask me the same four questions at least once a week.
It gets old after 35 weeks. That’s all I’m sayin’.
Do you know if it is a boy or a girl?
Oh, I forgot one:
“Hell yes!” in response to the question, “Is your husband a smart ass?”.
I do get asked that a lot. Really.
ahhhhh ha ha
I have been meaning to ask when the due date is, and if you had a name picked out yet. have you painted the nursery a color that would be a hint? If so, what color did you paint it?
I have seen some neat nursery pictures tagged of late in the Facebook.
With road conditions on the weekend, I was reminded of Brian and I almost crashing into Fidel’s car one night in the driveway. It made me laugh out loud. The “parking brake” should not be used to “park” while the car is in motion.
You’re going to have a Feb baby? That’s the best month for babies. I’m just sayin’.
Baby yet? Hm? Hm?
Just dropping by.Btw, you website have great content!
