Hi - with Caitlin - there used to be a group of us who would meet for lunch on a friday and one of the girls i worked with was pregnant. So the first topic each friday was to ask her how she was going. One friday someone asked me, as a joke, 'so when are you due?' and when i said 'November' there was dead silence before the screaming !!

Similar thing happened at netball, one girl was pregnant and would come down to watch and when we were standing around after the game people would ask how she was going. After one game, I asked them all if they were going to ask how I was going, I got some weird looks before they clicked.

This time - with mum and my sister - i asked what they were doing in November - and then would they like to be a grandma and an aunty again. Mum said 'about time' and my sister screamed and gave me a hug.

Barb.
