In total agreement mdesi!!!

Just spent the weekend with my ILs who are convinced that the only reason I have not been pregnant (well, carried to term) is that I'm too snotty and concerned about "getting fat".

It was a rough weekend - SIL gave DH a Father's Day card that was 7 years old and said "I bought this for you when you got married because I didn't realize then that you were marrying someone who wouldn't want to be pregnant".

?????

I shouldn't be too surprised - we were the first couple (still the only) marriage in DH's family where the bride was not pregnant at the wedding. Not that I care that people are pg before getting married by ANY stretch, just the assumption that there was no reason to marry me unless I was, and that the only reason I wasn't is I was stuck up and concerned about my appearance.

FWIW - I'm a heavy gal, I'm not sure why getting fat is perceived as a concern for me!
