When I was pregnant with our third child a popular comment was, "you're going to be outnumbered!" And now that he's two weeks old we are still receiving the comment but in question format. I never know how to answer those questions. I also really don't like when people ask, "how are you feeling?" when I am pregnant. My assumption is that people are expecting me to say that things are difficult and I feel awful, which then gives the person questioning an opportunity to commiserate and to tell me how hard things were for them.
And not to sound selfish or anything, but...
I don't want to hear about how sick you felt while pregnant.
Or how difficult your babies were.
I know, I am a horrible person.
And baby #3 is probably my favorite *shh, don't tell the others* Thank you very much for asking.
