Pregnancy Related Things I've Said This Week

I did make a promise to myself that my blog wouldn't become a 'pregnancy' blog, but with the lack of anything else remotely interesting going off in my life the subject does seem to crop up in most of my sporadic posts.  So, may as well just accept that for the next two months I've bugger all else to talk about.

Here are a few snippets of conversation that have been entered into this week:

T'husband: "How soon after the birth can we start having sex?"
Me:  "When you've had a vasectomy!"

Obs/Gyne Dr Bloke - "Pipí bien?  Caca bien?"
Me (afterwards) "What the fuck, I know I'm English but I'm not 3. Are there no adult words for piss & shit in Spanish?"

Severals mamas in the queue last night for Joseph's school book:  (translated)  "How are you, well?" " How long do you have left?"  "Really?" (said in a very high pitched voice with accompanying disappearing eyebrows).

One lovely mama in the aforementioned queue: "You look small." - now I may well have completely misheard her, or there is a word in Spanish that rhymes with pequeño that actually means 'beached whale'.

Me: "I think these pelvis and hip pains are SPD."
T'husband:  "hmm, self-diagnosing again?  God bless Dr. Google."
Me:  *death stare*

Joseph "You're a pretty mummy in that purple dress."
Me:  "Did I ever tell you that you're the most wonderful little boy in the world?  And maybe you need your eyes testing, for a start the dress is blue.."

Little Mara's Grandad at the swimming pool:  (translated) "Waahay, that's a big one in there!" complete with double hand grab of t'bump.
Me:  polite smile whilst muttering "fuck off you old codger" as I walked away.


Me:  "I don't remember being in so much pain and discomfort when I was pregnant with Joseph."
T'husband: "Well you whinged and moaned just as much...."

Obs/Gyne Dr Bloke:  "That's quite a big head."
Me:  *sigh*


Somewhere in there is a baby with a massive head!
