"Darling I'm pregnant"

[sqad617]

I answered those emotive words with "No big deal, we'll have a baby then " I thought of putting this little gem of journalism in the Pregnancy section, but this might inhibit male comments as this section is the sacrosanct inner sanctum of the female sex and as AB is predominantly female dominated one tends to get emotive and biased replies. If either Adam or Eve were incapable of having children, then the human race would have been "stuffed" from the outset, but fortunately it is more difficult NOT to become pregnant than indeed TO become pregnant, so much so that the medical profession has had to rack it's brains to device ways of avoiding pregnancy. So I ask again�"What is the big deal?" Women who have married and not become pregnant before the age of 22 yrs of age were pitied and thought to be "a bit odd" and one often heard the comment "it is such a pity she doesn't know what she has missed" She bl00dy well does know what she has missed that is why she doesn't want children. Then the "piece de resistance"�the appearance of the wooden stalk in the front garden holding a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, with the bold, common, grotesque pronouncement �." Damien (Peaches, Gary or some other stupid name) arrived yesterday weighing 7lbs 6 ozs"�����.how vulgar and who cares? Why is it when someone has had a baby that the first question is "How much did he/she weigh?"������.what is the "big deal?"�.what does it matter how much he or she weighs?

I think it's just a polite question ... like talking about the weather.

What you say ...

Aah, he's so cute.
How much did he weigh?
What are you calling him?

What you mean ...

Fcuk me, your baby's really ugly.
And porky.
And you're calling him "Wayne"?
The kid's 2 days old, and his life is a disaster.

'Was it an easy birth?' is a question about the mother's health. 'How much does it weigh?' is a question about the baby's health. These questions have to be indirect, to give the mother the option to tell all or not as she prefers. Just asking 'Is it a mutant, then?' will not be helpful.
