Wish I stayed in the closet ....
So this past weekend we made the news official, as we were at three separate functions with friends and family, we figured it was the perfect time to tell everyone we are pregnant and I was pretty excited about it, well...
I liked it better before everyone knew!
My favorite responses from people after we told them (in no particular order!):
1. Speechless, not in a good way, but as in a, completely, flat uninterested response.
2. Oh, a Sagitarious baby, ya they are very difficult personalities, my husband, son and mother in law are all Sagitarious. Good luck.
3. Well, it was about time, I dont know what you were waiting for (ehem, DH and I have only even been married for 1.5 years)
4. Oh, (grimace) December eh, its such a cold and snowy time of year.
5. Oh, (grimace) December eh, ya my (insert some family member or childhood friend) was born in December, he/she always fely gypped around the holidays. Oh well.
6. I knew you gained weight!!
People seriously SUCK. Feel free to post your favorites!

Re: Wish I stayed in the closet ....
Wow! People are ridiculous!
All I heard every time I announced it was how horrible it was that I had to go the entire HOT summer super pregnant (Im due September 2nd) and how it would suck that I had to go all summer without a drink.

yes the second half to the "oh december, its so cold and snowy blah blah blah was, well atleast you're not really pregnant in the heat of july and august!"
People, cmon! its not like you can plan these things, just SHUT Up, stop talking, like now, shh, dont say it, control yourself!

Re: Wish I stayed in the closet ....
Hey!!! As a Sagittarean myself, I LOVE having my birthday around Christmas!It may be tough to schedule a get-together, but it's such a festive time of year!
As for the "difficult personality thing"... I think I turned out alright! Usually Sags end up loving sports (the archer) and are "to the point". But we're also sweet, lovable people and I, for one, get along with almost anyone (except anyone who annoys the crap out of me). lol
Sorry you got that sucky response! Sagittareans rule!
