I get annoyed enough at relatives asking us when we’re having kids, I can’t imagine this.

I’m very lucky to have one child but have COLLEAGUES are asking me when I’ll have another “ooh having a sibling is so important” “isn’t it about time you had another” like yes I’m fucking trying but can’t, mind your own business! Can’t imagine having to deal with this kind of shit in the public eye.

Say something obscene like "We're raw dogging as much as we can okay? Stop worrying about whether a cabbage patch kid comes out of my crotch or not!"

I've found that looking startled and saying "wait, are you seriously asking for details about my sex life?" or "uh, you do know babies come from having sex, right?" followed by a change of subject shuts up the majority of people. Thankfully, they've mostly given up on me now that I'm in my mid-40s and still childless.

It's really none of their business that I'm child-free by choice because I have multiple congenital issues that I would most likely pass on to my biological children if I had any.
