If I Had a Dime...

If I had a dime for all of the pregnancy-related quips I've heard in the past few weeks, I could pay off our mortgage...
or at least buy some ice cream.

YES...I'm pregnant!

~ NO...I'm not having twins...
(although SEVERAL people have said, "You must be having twins").

~ I don't know if I've "dropped,"
but everyone else seems to think that I have.

~ YES...I know all of the supposed methods for getting labor started.
None of them worked with Clare...except for ice cream.  :)

~ I don't know when he's coming.
If I knew how to predict that, I could probably make a fortune...
and perhaps pay off our mortgage.  :)

NO...I don't think that my skin can, or should, stretch any further...
and YES...I am putting lotion on it.  Thanks for the advice.
 39-weeks...and anxiosly waiting.
 Can't wait until I'm reading to both of my peanuts on this chair.

i don't know why people feel compelled to make a comment, like once you're pregnant your belly becomes public domain or something! i've just been trying to employ the smile and nod approach... as you said, 'yes, i'm pregnant'!

Yeah, I'm sure that gets real old!!! I know I continue to be fascinated by pregnancy no matter how many times I see it...such a magical time for everyone from the outside anyway! :)
If I had a penny for everytime someone asked me what my stinking wedding colors are, I could take us BOTH out for ice cream! Seriously! Who CARES what my colors are? I don't! :)

Well, since ice cream helps everything, I think you should stick with that plan. And for important things like trying to induce labor, I think expensive ice cream works best!
