<p>“We’re pregnant” always sounds trite to me. Until the hubby gains 30lbs, has swollen ankles, and has to go to the bathroom 10 times in an hour, he’s definately not pregnant - let alone the actual birth. :D</p>
<p>I’m also tired of all the “sharing”. Just tell it to me straight, there’s no need to share! (haha)</p>
<p>berurah: I hate that phrase, “went missing,” too. Interestingly, if you google it the first link that comes up is somebody’s attempt to find the origin of it. the second/third thing is FOX News. Hmmm.</p>
<p>weenie, that’s interesting…I have always wondered where that came from because I have always tended to think of it as poor usage or some sort of colloquialism., and then there it was being said all over the news! I kind of had it ranked with one of my Texas-isms, like “fixin’ ready to”…<em>lol</em></p>
<p>“Went missing” is another form of “go ballistic, go postal, go nuts.” The British were using it before the Americans. Blame it on our older cousins.</p>
<p>I may have to stop reading some magazines (and you know who you are, “Glamour”…) if the word “canoodling” is not removed. Consider yourself warned.</p>
<p>Am happy to confess that despite having had a son, I have not been pregnant. But I have been sympathetic to the one who was (or at least I think I was sympathetic.</p>
