This Q seems to always find me no matter where I turn.
So okay 3 & 1/2 years is a long time and yeah, I’m pushing 28.
Yup, most of my friends currently are mommys while I am yet to walk the walk.
Marriage after 6 short months of whirlwind courtship obviously led to some wild speculations.
“Two words - knocked up. Why else all this hurry? Snicker snicker”
Fast forward to the present. I’ll take a guess at the gossip…
“Maybe she’s barren, tch tch, poor thing”
Profound sense of irony is something I find less irritating, more humourous. Never a dull moment 
And for possible speculations, I’d like to borrow Rhett’s line, frankly my dear, I dont give a damn.

‘i dont give a damn’ is the best way to deal with such questions. so what even if you succumb to this particular question! will the questionairre ever end? it might imm. follow with ‘when are you giving your only child a company?’ hehe. i am faced with such questions almost everyday and all i tell them is - ‘the time is not right, get a life guys!’
Guess you’re right, girl. If its not one thing, its the other. Now all I’m waiting to be asked is, when will you die?To which I may reply, dont wait up!
Hey H2H,
Here are some great comebacks for such questions. Had them me in splits when I read them the first time! I know some of them are downright rude, but who cares!
Q: So why aren’t you two having kids yet?
Ans 1: “Because I want to lick the spoon. I finally got exclusive rights to the spoon and I’m not giving them up!”
Ans 2: “Crap!!!! I knew there was something I was forgetting to do! I thought I had too much money and free time on my hands, and my house is way to clean. I’ve felt so rested and there is a certain stickiness missing from my life. I should have known when I wasn’t dealing with other humans waste and vomit. That’s right, kids are what I need to wreck all this joy I’ve been burdened with!!!! I’ll be getting right on that!!!”
Ans3: “I’d rather regret NOT having children, than regret HAVING children. Cause once you have them, it’s a lot difficult putting them back.”
Ans 4: “If you buy a house next door and babysit whenever I have the whim (3 AM on a Tuesday?…..3 weeks in June as I travel through Europe?) I might consider it.”
Ans 5: “Why do you ask, are you jealous?”
Ans 6: “What!? After seeing your kids? No thanks!”
That was too good! Rude schmude. I’m using Ans 3 for sure cause theres no putting them back all right!
Ha ha ha… oww owwwieee, my stiches hurt!!!Seriously this post was worth writing just for these response.
My pleasure
