Laughing is good, right? I'm predicting I'll at least have a double bingo after my first day back to work after summer vacation just from coworkers' comments alone.  |

haha this is great! I'm definitely over the "well you must be due soon, right?!"- nope 10 more weeks, but thanks for making me feel more gigantic than I did already!

My most popular squares would be the "do you know what you're having?" and a version of the "it must be a _____, you're carrying ______". Unfortunately (maybe fortunately??) I don't think I'd win since I stay at home and mostly see mom friends. Unless the general public really picks up the slack in the coming weeks... and I sure hope they don't!  |

I got the 'do you think you'll make it to your due date?' from my MIL recently. Really? Do you think if I'm bigger than I was last time the whole process just speeds up? News flash: It still takes 40 weeks to make a baby. And PS I'm only trying to make it to 37 weeks, please don't wish another preemie on me. I don't want to go through all that again. Grrrr.

I rarely see anyone but family, church members, and strangers. However, i have gotten: you are so cute, are you so excited, are you ready, you look so uncomfortable, should you be eating that, do you have names, you have gotten so much bigger, do you know what you're having, and the looks from other pregnant women.
Also a fair amount of pity from old women when i tell them it's another boy, which i am frankly thrilled about.

I've gotten "is it a boy or a girl?"
Me: "a girl! And our first is also a girl."
Person: "awe well that's okay."
Me: (to myself): um, damn right it's okay. I think two girls are awesome and I'm excited for them to be sisters. Is that, not okay?

I am excited to have two boys, why is that so hard for people to fathom? Everything else I hear is "You are so cute" (Thank you, but I'm secretly wondering how "not cute" I look when I'm not pregnant if I look so cute now...) and "I can't believe you're having a baby!" (Mostly from friends and family. I'm AMA and I guess everyone thought we were one-and-done.) and "You're so big!" together with "How much longer?" (From everyone.) |

At least the bingo square asks if it can touch the belly.

Does "you look like you're going to pop" equate to "oh my god, you're HUGE"? Because that's the WORST! Especially because I don't hold back when I tell them nope - 2 more months. A-holes.

Love this! versed, Sad but with me just having to hang out at home, I've hit a bunch of bingo rows! from strangers when I am go out to my appts. and short grocery runs, D2D sales dudes. Even neighbors have been asking hubs and my mom if I already had baby since I haven't been out much in the pottering in the garden which I usually am and garden is looking pretty neglected but oh well... |

I just got an unwanted unsolicited belly rub along with "you're looking nice and big" at a funeral yesterday. I mean I am just about 32 weeks...and not actually that huge. I have literally only gained in my belly this time and look/feel way smaller than I did with DD. rude.
