I am sitting here with my mouth open still.  Just wow.

I just ran to the grocery to get butter flour and choc chips so that #1 son can make cookies for his garage/bake sale tomorrow. 

I got in line. There is one girl checking my stuff out and another bagging.  The one bagging looks at my protruding belly and says, "oh, a baby!"  I said (quite proud I might add) "yep, this is baby #7" 

To which this person replies....and I must say, out of everything I have thus far...this absolutely takes the cake, "#7? Really?  Well, this one should just slide right on out, huh?"

surprisedWhat?!  Are you kidding me?!  To make a remark like that to someone you do not know is just...well....it's freikin rude!!!!!!!!!!!

I am still floored.  Just floored......


Ok, vent over.....Still in awe  though. *shaking head*


EDIT~  Just for the record, I am not upset anymore...I can see the humor in it NOW.  In the moment, with other strangers around me, her being a stranger as well,it was quite embarassing with her discussing my hoo ha like that. BUT, I can laugh now.

I doubt that she ment to be rude but she shouldn't have said it that way. When I was going to PT for my shoulder my therapist was asking me about my children. When I told her that one has a BT, one is LD due to a high fever at 2yrs old, and a third had multiple disabilities she said :"wow you better stop having kids, they are just bad luck for you". I was offended at first but have forgiven her of her ignorance and have moved on.

That is something I can picture flying out of my mouth.  Too often I speak without thinking.  She didn't mean it to be rude...and I'm sure she is still yanking her foot out of her mouth.  Sorry but I think it's funny.  =)

LOL.....

Lighten up... don't get upset by that.... my mother had eight..... twelve pregnancies in twelve years, AFTER three miscarriages before the first (me) was born. When I tell people this, I say that after the first three or four, she was spitting them out like watermelon seeds !!
