    True Phone Conversation A Few Minutes Ago

    Me: I have some great news!  I can't get ahold of DH so I thought I'd call and tell you!

    Mom:  What is it?

    Me: We get to go on a cruise in February!  Isn't that exciting

    Mom: Oh, I thought you were calling to tell me you were pregnant?

    Me: Huh?  Really mom?  Do you think I'd find out in the middle of a workday?  Do You think I'd casually call and tell you?  Do you think I'd tell you before I told DH?

    Mom: Oh, yeah, I thought it was a bit odd.

    Me: Okay, bye Mom, have a great day.

    Why does everyone think that good news is that your pregnant???

    ((End of rant!))

    I called my sister to tell her I had some exciting news, and that is what she thought too.

    LOL.  What I was really calling to tell her....I finally figured our how to curl my hair with a straightener.  Exciting stuff, right.

    I called everyone in my family to tell them we have great news.

    Me:  No, we're not pregnant... but we're buying our dream house!

    Them:  Oh.

    Baaah, totally understand!  :)

    This week we had to pick up some prescriptions from Target and the women, as in about 45, said O I thought you were buying a pregnancy test. WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I just stared at her in shock as my FI paid for everything, just because you see a ring lady does not mean I am a baby machine!!!!

    @ryansgirl - Youtube it! Seriously! My sister tried to show me for an hour the day of my bridal shower, but I couldn't get it.  Youtube had so many different ways to do it, I finally figured it out!

    Haha love this thread. I made a post about being excited about something on facebook soon after the wedding and a bunch of people posted asking if I was pregnant. Fun stuff.

    @Ryansgirl: I can't do it either! I'm hopeless at it!

    @bohemianbailie: "Does not mean I'm a baby machine". THAT made me laugh!

    I don't know. Whenever I told anyone about the engagement, it seemed like the next thing out of their mouth was some version of "are you knocked up?" Very infuriating. I don't think I'll even attempt to tease the "I have good news!" I can't stand anymore pregnancy suggestions. I'll just say good news, right up front from now on to avoid that.

    Oh my gosh! I called my mom the other day to find out my blood type for a college class and she immediately thought I needed to know my blood type because we were TTC. We're not even married yet!

    Everytime I mention to someone that Im really tired lately, or not feeling full after meals like usual, people automatically say "youre pregnant!"  Im so not! My hubby had a vasectomy years before we met, so I'm 99% sure Im not pregnant unless it was immaculate conception or his stuff undid itself (which I know can happen, but my periods are regular, so that clears that up).

    Whats with people?!?  Hahahah

    Hey, curling hair with a straightener is WONDERFUL. I was quite proud of myself when I figured it out.

     

    and no, I am not pregnant.
