Tees for the Mom-To-Be!
Most aren’t aware of proper
etiquette when asking questions of pregnant ladies; these tees
will help them!
It’s the morning of my 10-year high school reunion.
Once again, I picture myself running into 1) my old high school
sweetheart, 2) my “former” best friend and 3) the
cliquey group that always made me feel like an outcast. The
butterflies start fluttering recklessly in my tummy.
The only thing that persuades me to attend is that I’m
curious to see who fulfilled their prediction to that famous
question – “where do you see yourself in 10 years?”
After I spend the day figuring out what to wear and practicing
answers to those inevitable questions, the time has come to
reunite with the past…
As I walk into the room, many eyes fixate on my face; I can
see the calculation in their heads as they try to remember who
I am. As soon as it comes to them, their eyes shoot down to
the newly-formed pooch of my stomach.
When we finally engage in conversation, I’m annoyed that
they keep looking at my tummy, but fail to say anything. They’re
scared to ask the daring question (especially since my husband
couldn’t attend)…
“Are you pregnant??”
Instead, they wonder if I’ve been indulging in too many
steak dinners and chocolate deserts—or if, in fact, there’s
a life developing inside of me.
At this point, I wish I would’ve worn one of my shirts
from DueAndSprout.com--which
could have avoided all the awkwardness.
Thankfully, I’m as proud as ever to share the news of
my first child—but in the future, I might just wear my
“message” tees to every social function.
It will make everyone’s life just a little bit easier!
