TTC - To Say or Say Not?
While Trying to Conceive, have you found others (even people you barely know) asking prying questions or offering unsolicited advice? Do you think they mean well and just don't think, or are they being meddling and/or on the rude side? Do you respond, ignore it, brew over it all night...?

Who to tell you're TTC?

Our friends generally know we're at the "wanting kids" stage, but only our two closest definitely know we're finally TRYING. Other than that, I've told my mom. So far, only my mom inquires. "Any news on the pregnancy front?" And she leaves it alone when I tell her no, but she'll be one of the first to know when there's something to know. But then, I think she's a tiny bit freaked out by the idea of me getting pregnant and having kids!

It seems about right to me. It's not really a topic I want to discuss much. I already dread the stage when EVERYONE offers you pregnancy advice, followed by EVERYONE offering feeding advice, followed by EVERYONE offering parenting advice... I'm going to be struggleing to smile and hold my tongue a LOT in next few years! :)
