Question

How do you respond to family/friends when they ask you when you will get pregnant but you have been trying unsuccessfully and it is an emotional subject to address? I have asked my mom to get ahead of me for the holidays so hopefully I don’t get too many questions, but I still get it frequently and it is honestly heartbreaking. I’ve been newlywed for over a year. I think everyone expects us to announce soon after our year anniversary, but they don’t know we have been trying for 6+ months. I am dreading the holiday season over this question alone.

Answer

People need to mind their own business. Just tell people you are enjoy being married. Leave it at that. Be super short.

Answer

Ugh we have been dealing with this since we got married 3 years ago. I get so irritated. When they ask, I tell them, “when God says it’s time” or, I even say “we aren’t sure we want kids” then they look at me crazy. I’m currently 5w5d pregnant and I’m still not telling obnoxious family members until next year. It’s honestly none of their business.

Answer

Family keeps asking us when we will try for another baby (daughter is 10 months old), so I tell them about our miscarriage in October. It hurts but hopefully it'll stop them from asking someone else who is going through a rough time. I also can't just smile, say "maybe soon!" and act like my second pregnancy didn't exist 😔

Answer

I just say "we're waiting for the stork". But 6 months of trying is still early.

Answer

When people ask me "When are y'all going to have kids?"
I just simply say "Whenever the Lord gives us one."
I've never had anyone ask any further questions after that. But also my family knows we've been trying because I suffered an ectopic pregnancy and had to have surgery.

Answer

I’m sorry you have to go through that. I would truly tell them “When it’s time, we will get pregnant” it’s all about divine timing. You WILL get pregnant and you WILL have a healthy 9 months💓
