Questions that I have asked my pregnant friends lately:
1. How fat have you gotten?
2. Are you concerned that because your baby is due on December 22nd, it's birthday will be too close to Christmas, and it will get totally shorted on its presents because everyone will give it combo birthday/Christmas presents?
3. (To my friend who lives in the mountains in Colorado, an hour away from the closest hospital) Dude, how are you going to get to the hospital when you go into labor? Are you worried about giving birth in the car on the side of the road? What if the mountain road is closed because there's too much snow?
4. Are you upset that you'll be too pregnant to fly home and see your family for Thanksgiving and Christmas?
5. How do you think the cats will react to the baby? The reason I'm asking is because I heard that cats get really jealous when you bring a baby home, and they will try to kill it by sitting on the baby while it's sleeping and suffocating it, or clawing the baby's eyes out.
6. You're still naming it after me, right?

I asked a pregnant friend what they would do if their baby was a hermaphrodite, and offered to help them decide the gender.

We asked ourselves those questions a million times over before trying... well except that first one. That wouldn't have made much sense.
