If this pregnancy lasts much longer, I'm going to get a t-shirt made that says, Comments can be left in my inbox. I'm sure all you pregnant moms know what I'm talking about. And you dads, who have wives who have been pregnant, have surely heard. Here are a few that I have received now that I have hit the end.
Some, I admit to loving, like:
1. And the woman is still with child.
While others I could really do without:
2. You'd think that after this many they would just drop out.
One was the just the other morning when I passed a man on my morning walk. I think I have passed him everyday for the past nine months:
3. That baby's going to be a walker!
Many comments come from my neighbour and his wife two doors down who I literally try to sneak past. Just the other day:
4. You're still here! The hospital is that way.
5. She's slowing down!
And, when I was first pregnant:
6. Must have been a power outage this winter.
However, my absolute personal favourite comes from the mother of a good friend (who has me drinking raspberry leaf tea and bouncing on an exercise ball in an effort to induce labour). I met her mother a few weeks ago at the beach and she remarked in reference to the burgeoning life within:
7. You're the most beautiful person on this beach.
Music to my ears.
