Ok...so I understand that it's becoming the norm for a lot of people to have children before they get married, but why does that lead people to believe that if you get married first, your behind and must hurry to catch up? I do not want a baby right now. I do not...want a baby...right now.
First it was my parents...my mom especially, a week after marriage asked for grandkids. Then these ladies at my church keep grinning at us and making the rocking baby arms motion in our direction. Now it seems like, whatever is currently ailing me is a symptom for pregnancy.
"My feet hurt."
"Are you pregnant?"
"I've been so hungry today."
"Are you pregnant?"
"I can't seem to get this thing that's stuck in my tooth."
"You're pregnant aren't you?"
" NO!!!! I'm not now, nor will I ever be pregnant!"
Ok...so that's probably a lie. I will more than likely be pregnant at least once in my lifetime, but sometimes I just want to say it to keep people of my back
I swear...not everything makes me pregnant. Sometimes my feet just hurt, or a have a big appetitte or I'm forgetful, or a I throw up in the morning(just kidding) But someone asks me if I'm pregnant at least 3 times a week.
Give me a break already. We don't all have to reproduce early. It'not like 26 is some magic age that after that is will be too late. Although...I do think it's funny that out of all my college friends that are married only one couple is about to have a baby. The rest of us are just fine being just a couple for the time-being. I wonder if they are all being pressured as well?
