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...?
My mother-in-law tricked me into admitting to TTC

I'm STILL fuming over this and it happened two months ago!! My husband and I decided in October to start TTC the following cycle. We happened to be in our home state visiting in November.
I was sitting with my mother-in-law and a few of my husband's siblings. Mother-in-law exclaimed "So I heard you're off birth control and trying for a baby! I'm so excited!!" So I assumed my husband had told her, even though we'd agreed to keep quiet about it for a while. So I continued the conversation under that assumption and confirmed that we were trying.
Well it turns out, he told her nothing of the sort. She was just hoping it was true and trying to trick it out of one of us.
I'm so angry!! We were keeping it to ourselves for a reason!! And just as I expected, she had told every single member of his family within 24 hours. So we're being inundated with "How's the baby-making going" phone calls and prying emails. Where's my privacy??
