Q & A

Here are answers to a couple of questions that we've been asked repeatedly the past couple months.

Question # 1- "Were you trying?"
Maybe its just me, but this question is creepy. I think it's because "trying" literally means having sex. Clearly other people don't see it this way. Because everyone from family to friends to complete strangers ask it. I know it's completly innocent and they just think that they are asking "Were you trying?" but to me it sounds like "Were you and you wife intentionally having unprotected sex 4 months ago?"

I have never asked this question. I never will.

Answer # 1 - (awkward silence) ...yes.


Question #2 - "Are you going to find out?"
This question has become so common that it has developed in to short form. What I've learned it means is "Are you going to find out the gender of the baby prior to its birth?" So, it's like "whatevs" and "omg".

Answer # 2 - Totally.
