I can't stand people like that. Mind your own business damn it! I told one of my coworkers today. We have adjoining desks so I literally sit two feet away from her all day long. She is pretty perceptive and also good at keeping secrets so I spilled the beans this morning. She said she was dying to ask me yesterday but kept her mouth shut.
I have an office day today. I am way behind on filing so let's hope that I can be productive!
Honestly, that is a case for harassment. It's unwanted and the topic of discussion is inappropriate for work. I'd be really ticked off.
Today we're meeting up with two girls that are just a little older than DD for a play date. Glad to be doing something out of the house... with other people today.

People are so annoying. Why can't they just respect that 1. If you aren't pregnant it's rude to ask/assume/badger about it, and 2. If you are in fact pregnant, but haven't said anything clearly you aren't ready to share the news.

I told one coworker (friend) today because a) I am regularly a control sample blood donor for her experiments and I can't when I am pregnant and b) I keep getting a little woozy, and if I were to pass out I want someone to know. Granted, I don't feel THAT woozy and have never passed out before, but I have a healthy dose of paranoia.
DH wants to wait a few weeks to tell parents. I really do not want to wait to tell parents. He originally thought it would be great to tell people in person, but we will not see my parents till Christmas. While I would love to tell them is person, waiting that long is just rediculous.

I told my boss yesterday bc she is the most supportive person. Plus I keep sneaking away from work for these blood draws I don't want them to think I'm off interviewing or something.

buttercup I have a small office and half of them are on vacation this week, it's truly a vacation for me. I am not looking forward to everyone's annoying return next week!
Last Easter we were a little late getting to DH's dads and when we arrived things seemed a little awkward. I found out later that an aunt and had asked my BIL when they were going to have another and he said "actually we've been trying but we aren't able to have anymore and actually it's pretty messed up to asked people that". I guess the aunt was speechless and he told he he was kidding but that she should never ask people that since she doesn't know what people's situations are. He did this not for himself but for me and my DH so that she wouldn't ask us since we had just had our loss and had been doing fertility treatments for awhile. I have never had sometime do something so awesome for me like that. I always loved my BIL but after that I realize he is one of the most loving and brave people I know.
People can be so rude sometimes, but the truth is they don't know what someone is going through! No one should ever ask someone if they are pregnant or ask them when they are going to have another!

armfruit, I have been pretty good this time. Some generalized nausea but no food aversions yet. Last pregnancy was horrific so for the moment I am definitely counting my blessings.
My brother and SIL don't have kids and don't plan to. They are both great with kids though, and I have no idea if they ever tried. But OMG has everyone given them shit over the years! It's always pissed me off and I've always been very vocal about people needing to mind their own business. They don't know - nor do they need to - what's gone into their decision (or possibly just reality) of not having kids.

I got my betas back and I had another huge jump. I'm at 561 which is 10xs where I was last Thursday! They said I don't need to come back and repeat. I have an ultrasound already scheduled for next Friday! I'm feeling pretty good about things, I guess I just had a super slow start with all those squinters for a week and getting a 14... Happy dance!
Along the lines of people minding their own business I think I'm going to snap the next time someone asks how I'm going to take care of two. WTF.
Repeat vent to M14ers
I have a feeling that I'm going to get a lot of comments like that once I announce since we'll have 3 under 3.5! Truth is, I myself don't know how we're going to do it! We'll figure it out, though. Right?!
1. Today was free ice cream day in my building. Chocolate peanut butter Haagen Daaz. With sprinkles. Made my week.
2. Pregnancy related -- this is a weird question, but does anyone else get crampy when they have to pee, and then get different cramps when they finally go? I've had this with both prior pregnancies and now this one as well, so it's clearly normal for me, but I've often wondered if this is a pregnancy thing or a weird steveo thing...
Don't think so, because I'm still relatively regular. It's seriously just when I have a full bladder, and when I empty my bladder. It's a very distinct feeling.
