How many of you moms have been asked while pregnant, "you know how that happens right?" As in...you do know exactly how you got pregnant.

Question

I'm 25 and happily married. My husband and I went through a miscarriage earlier this year (it was fairly public knowledge) and then we conceived our rainbow baby in April... I've been asked this question several times and cannot help but be annoyed. Does everyone seriously assume babies are an accident?! *Sorry for the rant*

Answer

My MIL asked us that when we got pregnant with our first and my husband said "well yeah. We got in the shower and things got really slippery and next thing I know, Stacey's pregnant." 😂😂
I laughed so hard.

Answer

I'm 24, pregnant with #3 and happily married.

I've been asked with each pregnancy "don't you guys know what causes that?" It pisses me off.

When I was 16 I was diagnosed with severe pcos and endometriosis and told it'd be hard to conceive. I have been blessed 3 times and 2/3 were planned. It seriously disgusts me how much nerve some people have.

I lost it with this one when one of my husband's friends said "you guys are nasty, I got you a gift" and threw a box of condoms at my husband.

I told him he could go fuck himself and that as a married couple we'd planned our babies and he needed to learn some manners

Answer

I get asked all the time. And I respond appropriately. Last time, it was a nasty older lady who said it when I was out with my four kids and my partner. She says "you know how that happens right" motioning to my children and I furrow my brow in all seriousness and say "no, do YOU know? Can you tell us?" And then "kids, honey, come here, this nice lady is going to explain to us about the miracle of childbirth" and we all looked at her expectantly.

She turned bright red and turned and scuttled away, lol.

Answer

My sister in law has 7 kids (last two were twins) and she gets this ALL the time! It annoys me, and we don't even hang out that much! She was super hormonal with her twins and started responding "yes, we DO know how it happens, and we are VERY good at it. We made two this time just because we could." 😂😂😂 that tends to
Shut people up pretty quick. She has also had rude comments about her response to which she has replied, "if you don't want details of our sex life, then don't ask about it!" Lol she cracks me up!

Answer

When my friends mum was pregnant with her, people would say to her "I know what you've been up to". Like really? People have SEX. Thats how babies are made! Grow up, you're not in fifth grade.

I can't imagine how annoying that would get 😞

Answer

Something like that happened when my man told his mom I was pregnant she said "well life happens" 
When I told my mom she said "why didn't you use protection?" 
(We got pregnant 2 months into the relationship)

Answer

Hmmm I was never asked that. But I did have my brother in law and his girlfriend make several jokes of my baby being conceived because we were drunk/oops moment. As if that's the only way it happens! My baby was wanted and neither of us were drunk. My son wasn't an accident.

Answer

I never had the nerve for it.  But i always wanted to respond, "Noooo!  How does it happen?"

Answer

Thank you, you have just given me one more reason I never want to get pregnant.
