So I went into work today to drop off my time card. The woman working the front desk is a friend (well, the surface kind where you like them and maybe go shopping with them). As I was dropping off my time card, this was the (loud on her part) conversation we had

Her: "Hey! How was your time with Jared this last weekend?"
Me: "Oh good. I was nice spending time with him."
Her: "Did you conceive?"
Me: "Uhh, what?"

Her: "Did you conceive? You know, a baby?"
Me: "Uhh, not that I know of"

Her: "Aww, but when will you know?"

I quickly changed the subject, but seriously, who asks that in the middle of the office? We're not even trying right now...Rude

Someone else share rude/nosy stories with me about people who don't know how to keep their thoughts to themselves

A few weeks ago the art teacher told the librarian that I was pregnant. Then she told a friend in the community. That friend told the ELL teacher, who I am friends with. I don't understand why its anyone's business!

she straight up asked you if you and J had sex this weekend. In what world is that appropriate?

Jean9ds · November 2013

Exactly. She basically asked if we had unprotected sex >.< Should I have told her my favorite position too?

It is no one's business until/if you make it their business... right? so frustrating. Especially spreading rumors about you being pregnant? Ridiculous

Oh geez. That's awful on her part. Just wait, when you do get pregnant you'll get all kind of personal questions that are along those lines.

This was part of why we never told anyone we were going to try or rather not avoid. We didn't want all the questions of "did you" "are you", ect.

Funny how people feel as though they are allowed to ask personal questions when it comes to TTC or pregnancy. And we're not even TTC >.< this will be a long journey haha.

I'll keep you all updated on all of the personal questions I do get :P haha

When we concieved my mom was totally surprised because I didn't even tell her we were trying.

Aww that's so sweet! Jared and I won't be telling family either when we're trying

Same here. Everyone was completely shocked. It was fun to see their reactions since they didn't even know we were trying.

I think the questions that bugged me the most during pregnancy that were TMI were at the end. I had people asking me how much I was effaced, dilated, ect. Not necessary information for them.

Jean9ds · November 2013

Hahaha if people ask me that, I'll probably ask back "want to check?"

There are some pregnancy shirts I would love to have. One says "if you didn't put it there, don't touch it" hehe

We are probably not going to tell anyone either, especially family because my mom can't keep her mouth shut, and my MIL will ask the inappropriate questions. I might tell my one close friend, but then again she has a big mouth too, so probably not.

I was always really careful with my cousin, and I asked her general questions, and left her share what she wanted. She did tell me a lot of stuff, but I didn't ask either. It was good to know, because besides you guys, she is the only person I know that has been pregnant that I have been close to.
