FAQs
Baby in there? Doctor take it out? Feed it rice?.....no! Only MILK! (Asked by Max 100 times per day)
Yes, the baby is in there. It will be out soon. Yep, just milk!
When are you due?
October 23rd
Just one this time?
Yep, just one (ha, ha).
How are you feeling?
Do you want the real answer, or the nicey-nice one I usually throw out because I know most people don't really care. The real answer is that I feel like CRAP.
What are you having?
A baby
Is this your first?
Nope, my fourth (I love the jaw-dropping that comes with this one!).
Are your other kids excited?
Very.
Was this planned?
Totally
Whoa.....are you STILL pregnant?
This one gets a blank stare from me, it doesn't deserve a response!
And, my favorite.........
Why don't you come to the next ward activity and you could lay on your stomach with your arms and legs stretched out and we could play "Spin the pregnant woman" with you?
Huh?

What? Who did that last question come from? I'm sorry that the real answer is crap. And that's hilarious that Max wants to feed the baby rice. I see him being a loving big brother and sharing crackers and things - good luck!
That last one is asked frequently? Weird!
Hang in there Jen . . . it will be worth it!
OK, the last one is not asked frequently, but it was asked for real so I had to include it!
and that my friends is why I don't venture into the ward houses. hang in there sis, really excited for you! sorry I'm not more in touch, bad brother...
This is your first time really pregnant though, right? Do you have any weird dream? Word on the street is that some people have Lindsay Lohan type dreams when they are knocked up.
I have to know who asked the spin the pregnant woman question...thats so funny and weird! I'm sorry you feel like crap..next time I ask you, I better not hear "Im fine" cuz now I know the truth. Cant wait to see you!
To clear the record, I absolutely LOVE the person who asked the last question. I won't lie and say I found it totally humorous, but he can get away with just about anything.
This is too funny! No better time to answer FAQ's than at the end of a pregnancy! Yes... .the end! You are almost there! The GREAT thing is, despite how you feel, or think... you look FABULOUS! All your cute outfits, the glow, your cute hair... all of you!
Oh Jen! You do look great - I meant to tell you on Sunday, but don't seem to get much socializing in. Please, Please, Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help, or just come over and laugh about.
P.S. The last question came from a "he"? I bet I can guess who that was :) And if I'm right, I am not that surprised.
How about this one: "You're having a girl, and she is going to weigh 8 lbs. and 4 ounces." "Oh no, she's having a boy, i can tell by the way she's carrying it...." "It's going to weigh 8 lbs. and 11 ounces!"
What?????? Someone actually said that??? I would like to talk to that person please! What? Honestly? Please tell me that was a man, and not a woman who has had a baby. That is just the worst! And, you look fabulous by the way! Truly beautiful, so try to enjoy the one time in your life when it's truly fabulous to have a cute, round tummy! You are beautiful!
We are so excited we can hardly wait for #8...22 days and counting(not as quickly as you!) Spin the pregnant lady? Sounds too strange but I am glad you really LOVE the person who thought that one up, bet I can guess... Love you! Take Care!
Love the questions! I can just see your face when someone asks, "what are you having?" "a baby." That kills me!!! Good for you for writing down the FAQs, you look fabulous for only have 3 weeks left!!!
That is hillarious! I have an idea who wanted to play the spinning game. So mean. Those last three weeks are tough, you'll wear them well. Countdown is on!
Jen, i'm so excited for you! Hang in there, you're such a pro at this now!! :) Good Luck and I love you!
