Must be something in the water!

Has anyone realized how many people are pregnant around you? I just found out yesterday that three of my coworkers are pregnant and due all in January! My husbands cousin is pregnant with their third child and his other cousin is getting married in September and planning on conceiving right away. I feel like I am surrounded my pregnant women. 
Anniversary

Re: Must be something in the water!

  • Two friends had their babies in the same week (they don't know each other), about 3 weeks ago, and two more are 32+ weeks pregnant (I don't specifically know how far along they are), and other people left and right are mentioning being pregnant, getting pregnant, or wanting kids. 

    I love kids. I want kids. But whoa there, we're going to hold off for a couple years...
  • That's how we feel right now. Just want to enjoy being married

  • I kinda LIKE that everyone around me is getting pregnant and having kids.  I want kids in a few years, but not now at all.  Still, having babies around is kinda fun.  I love kids and playing with other people's.  But mainly just because I can give them back when I get tired of them!
  • Yep same here.  Just found out the last of our friends that did not have kids is now pregnant.  My husband and I are now the only ones not expecting in our group of friends.  Also, several coworkers and family members are also pregnant.  keep telling myself that we are just at that age!?

  • THANK YOU!!! I thought it was just me! I've had 2 people at work announce that they are pregnant (due the same month). I also know 2 people outside of work that are pregnant (due the same month and the month after my co-workers). I also know an ex-co-worker that is further along than the rest, but pregnant all the same. One of my friends said it is contagious. All I have to say is stay away from me... BNOTB at all!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I WAS surrounded by pregnant women, but now I'm just surrounded by new babies! 
    Life is good today.
  • I like to joke that everyone else is getting pregnant and I'm just getting drunk! In the school I teach at we will have at least 1 baby born every month between now and March! And I have 5 students who are pregnant too (I teach at a high school). I feel like babies are the new  statement piece, like a new coach purse or an awesome pair of shoes. Thanks, but no thanks. I'll stick with my awesome heels, my non-spit up covered shirts and pants that don't have an elastic waist!
  • I am surrounded by people having babies... people having babies soon and people with babies..  LOL!

     We aren't even married yet and I already feel the parental pressure.   I am happy to say FH and I are holding steady and no babies for the long foreseeable future! 

    happily ever starts in...

  • We had a fair in town recently and there were pregnant ladies everywhere. I thought my DH and I were just seeing things but apparently not. I agree, must be something in the water.

  • I'm surrounded by them as well - coworkers, friends, extended family. I just laugh and tell some off-hand joke about how I'll get all the boxes of free stuff when we start a year or two from now (at the EARLIEST!)
    Ignore the politics and enjoy life!
