Hej hej vardag

I use to read some blogs to distract/ inspire myself. One of them is the Swedish one hej hej vardag. The other day, the author wrote a list over things that parents of little kids get to hear and don’t help.

Here is my own list over things you hear as a pregnant woman and don’t want to hear:

it was about the time! We thought you didn’t know how to make kids!

And you have no clue how many years and tears it took us to come to this point…
oh what for a big belly do you have, sure it’s not twins? 

I’m not sure but the doctors are…
I know you were pregnant already, I knew it (fill in with irrelevant date)

it’s a girl or a boy? we don’t know. No??? How will you do to renovate the baby’s room? How will you do to choose a name?

Good for you, but I don’t care, I don’t even know your surname. (this kind of detailled comments often come from people you don’t really know).
And the last: this is not a sentence but a gesture : the well known Hand-on-belly. no comment.
