Breederisms, From the Mouth of My Own Mother

My sister is on bedrest. Her blood pressure was supposedly way up at her appt yesterday and she has gained eleven pounds of fluid in a week. She is due any time now.
I had quite a round of sparring with my Mother last night over the way she relayed this information. She still doesn't get it. In the middle of the conversation she even hit me with the two worst "breederisms."


1- You're trying to hard.
2- You just need to relax.

Oh, and then there was the classic, if T. was home more you'd get pregnant.
Of course, I've never told her that dh's boys don't swim. However, you would think she would understand by now that we're well beyond relaxing and not trying.
