On a side note, about a year after I had my daugther, people were asking (or telling) me when I was gonna have more children or that she needed a sibling. WTH??? Are you gonna be there for me when I run out of formula and diapers? Are you gonna be there in the middle of the night to feed the baby?? Are you gonna be there when the baby is sick and need to go to the doctor?? Are you gonna write tuition checks when they go off to college??? If not, DON'T ASK OR TELL ME NADA!!!!!
I feel the EXACT way! And besides that, I live in a different state than the rest of my family, so I KNOW that they will not be there in the middle of the night or even on most weekends unless I pack up junior and head for a road trip.

It's additionally bothersome for me because everytime I don't feel good or have a mood swing my family asks am I pregnant. Example...I took a 'me' day from work and stayed at home, ran some errands, etc. My mom called me and said that she called the office and I wasn't there. I told her I took the day off. Her response, "Did you have to go to the doctor? I know I didn't tell my boss right away either."

WHAT?!?! I can't just not want to go to work today. I have to be pregnant. I hate it. It really bothers me. Cause I'm not doing anything wrong by waiting to have children, so why do I have to justify my choice?
