But before we left, it was to the point where I could never, ever NOT have a beer if one was offered -- no matter how much I didn't want one -- because it would start a rumor that would spread like wildfire.

Like, have you ever thought about how odd it is that many employers offer different lengths of time for maternity leave based on if the baby was born by C-section or not? (my work offers 6 weeks for natural birth, 8 for c-section). Hey, wait, since when is it appropriate for my EMPLOYERS to know whether a baby came out my vagina or through a hole in my stomach?!Patent's Patentedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03612505162983356794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476021495867810725.post-76157150223350152582013-01-22T07:56:33.941-08:002013-01-22T07:56:33.941-08:00Oh jeez.

See, I feel like at this point, most people who weren't raised by wolves have figured out that they're not supposed to point at a woman's belly and ask if she's pregnant (though apparently this child IS being raised by wolves). But as long as "weight gain" isn't the reason they think you're pregnant, then they think it's perfectly acceptable to ask.<br /><br />NO.

Since our October nuptials, I am asked at least once a week if I am pregnant, and each time I lament the fact that I cannot punch them in the mouth.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12276729231435529694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476021495867810725.post-55613634799903634032013-01-21T17:53:40.229-08:002013-01-21T17:53:40.229-08:00Having run into a couple of those situations mysel...Having run into a couple of those situations myself, I found this particularly hilarious. :)Kindelhttp://www.jeffandkindel.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476021495867810725.post-64238488285096979932013-01-21T16:19:56.167-08:002013-01-21T16:19:56.167-08:00Another one of the reasons this last political sea...Another one of the reasons this last political season drove me so crazy. Both sides were blabbing on about "women's issues" as if everything in my life revolves around my uterus. Amazingly enough that is not the decision making organ of my body. I do things for reasons other than being or not being pregnant!

The one scenario you didn't cover though (perhaps a second edition?) is when small children ask you with their parents present.."do you have a baby in your tummy? It's really big so you must have a baby like mommy did....oh you don't? Then you eat too much hehe!"...thanks 5 year old that I can't punch in the face. And thanks mom of five year old that isn't apologizing or correcting the child AT ALLMichelle Millernoreply@blogger.com
