The Pregnant Conversation


I am almost 32 weeks pregnant and I’ve noticed the general pregnant conversation while talking to one of our producers the other day. It goes something like this:
Pregnant Fairy 1: When are you due?
Pregnant Fairy 2: Mid January. And you?
Pregnant Fairy 1: End of February. Do you know if it’s a boy or a girl?
Pregnant Fairy 2: It’s a boy….again. What are you having?
Pregnancy Fairy 1: A girl
Pregnant pause – excuse the pun
Pregnant Fairy 2: Do you have any names yet?
Pregnant Fairy 1: Yes we’re thinking either Lola or Peaches
Another pregnant pause while Pregnant Fairy 2 thinks of a diplomatic response.
Pregnant Fairy 2: Oh! *thinks, “Good grief, my dog’s name is Lola”.*
Pregnant Fairy 1: Do you have any names yet?
Pregnant Fairy 2: No, but we are working on it. *thinks ”and we are seriously considering NORMAL names”*
Pregnant Fairy 1: Are you going for normal birth or caesarean?
Pregnant Fairy 2: Caesarean
Pregnant Fairy 1: I’m going for a normal birth..actually natural, no drugs!

Conversation runs dry.
The end.
