This can really apply to any pregnant mother, but I am currently pregnant with my fourth. I thought the most annoying thing I could be told was “do you know how that happens”, as this most “original” question seems to pop up with every pregnancy. When I announced this pregnancy, I made it clear that if anyone asked me that question, I would explicitly explain how such a thing occurs.

However, now I am constantly hearing the phrase “your youngest is not going to take it well, not being the youngest anymore. She’s such a good youngest baby.” And I’ve heard it enough from so many people I’m actually starting to feel guilty for making my third child an older sister.

So what are some things everyone here is tired of hearing?
