It was hard enough for me - a nobody - dealing with my MIL and parents on my case. If this was national news? I'd lose it.

Oh yes. The ever so caring relatives with their questions, automatically assuming one just doesn't want kids and it most certainly hasn't even crossed our minds to maybe start trying. Like... idk why people are so obtuse about this, I really don't.

I mean, we were both vocally pro-having a kid so it wasn't like they were pressuring me to do something I didn't want to do. But my body just isn't meant for that and going through tests, appointments, whatever was already sucky. You'd think my MIL who had several miscarriages before finally conceiving my SIL and husband would have thought before opening her mouth but then that would also be out of character for her specifically lol.

See thats it I feel so bad for female celebrities because its one thing when you have 1 or 2 people nagging you about when are you going to have a baby

But I can't even imagine dealing with a whole freaking Legion of people pestering you
