#4 or more, mamas with many

[a_work_in_progress]

My boyfriend and I have selectively told a few people so far (just casual friends). He's really excited since it's his first. Well, several times I've had the same response, mentioning I have "options". WTF? Because I have more than 2 kids, I must automatically think about abortion?! Then people start asking me about finances, which is another personal subject, and I'm just irritated by these comments. Will I have to put up with these comments forever?

I have a theory... if someone does not think this is such a swell idea for me to have this child.. whatever keep it to yourself..however if you choose to share that info with me.. it is my CHOICE to tell you to Piss up a rope. go to hell or just generally F off.. because I am pregnant and moody and your not cooperating with my positive mentality. So be prepared to feel my wrath.:D

and I am not embarassed or ashamed to put this out there.

I'm on #4 too, 2nd w/ dh. DH has always been financially comfortable so we haven't been getting the "how can you afford it" questions, but we have heard "haven't figured out what causes that yet huh?" over and over. My response - "yup, we're good at it :D "

When I was married to the Ex, all kinds of folks thought I was nuts when I was pg with #2 - Ex was alllergic to work and we were beyond broke. Everyone seems to have an opinion, if it rubs me the wrong way I vent some of these horomones at em :mischief All that really matters is that YOUR family is happy.

It really sucks that people are so rude that way. Dh told his mother and her reaction was not a happy one at all. Our family thinks we should stop because our oldest has high functioning autism.

I'm so sorry that people have been so rude to you all. That's just wrong.

Here's wishing you happy and healthy pregnancies. Congrats!

Number four due Jan 31/07 for us. My parents will roll their eyes etc. My Dad has been telling me I should be done now for years. (just before #3 was started) They live 8 hrs away, so I won't have to deal with them too much. I know our friends will be surprised, but am hoping they won't be rude.

To those naysayers you can :Kiss my a _ _!! :wink
