Old People Say the Darndest Things


That's about what my belly looks like these days.

To go along with that....

Old People Say the Darndest Things

It's true. Here's a sampling of what I have heard from my patients at work this last week.

Patient: "Hi, Baby!" *pats my belly
"Hi Baby!" *pats my bum*
"A baby in a baby!"

As I'm leaving her room... Patient: HAPPY PREGNANCY!!
Is this some sort of new holiday greeting?

Another patient predicted my baby would weigh between 9 and 10 lbs.
No thank you.

And... the gem of the week.....

Patient: Was your baby a big surprise?
Me: Yes.
Patient: Why?
Me: Ummm.... why what?
Patient: Why were you surprised? Don't you have a husband? Don't know KNOW what happens?
Me:....... *silence*
