Coworker1: Why are you still here???

Dolce: Because I'm still pregnant.

Coworker1: (smiles and cocks head to the side) He just doesn't want to come out, does he?

Dolce: Apparently not.

Coworker2: Oh! You're still here!

Dolce: (trying to maintain composure) Yep.

Coworker2: I thought for sure we wouldn't be seeing you for awhile.

Dolce: Nope. I'm here. Probably will be for the rest of the week.

Coworker2: He just likes it in there.

Dolce: (inner monologue - I totally want to fucking punch you in the face. Do you think I want to be HERE???) Yep.

Coworker3: You went to the doctor yesterday and nothing?

Dolce: (Remain calm. Breathe.) Nothing.

Coworker3: Nothing? How can that be?

Dolce: I don't know.

Coworker3: He just likes it in there.

Dolce: Apparently.

Coworker4: (pops head into my office) Oh, you're still here!

Coworker5: So, how's the baby doing?

Dolce: The doctor said yesterday he's perfect!

Coworker5: So, he's just wants to hang out in there?

Dolce: (tries to hide rolling eyes) Yep.

Coworker: Well, at least you look good.

Dolce: That's the best thing I've heard all day.

The baby must like it in there.

Pam said...

But its only the 14th today, you're seeing into the FUTURE.... ooooh... that sucks!

Matt said...

So I guess this means I lost the pool huh?

Weak.

willtherebecake said...

Shit, I just lost the pool didn't I?

Man the baby must really like it in there

::ducks head to avoid getting punched in the face::

Rebekah J said...

I lose on the baby birthday pool :o( Still holding out for weight and length though.

The upside? You get to keep Pop'n Fresh for a little while longer :o)

Ginger said...

I think you should just go ahead and leave work to relax the baby out of there, unless, of course, you think that all that frustration will make the baby come sooner (but not until the 17th) - HA!

Hope everything goes super well when you bring the next MU Tiger into the world.

If you need to hook-up for MU baby outfits, I work right next to the bookstore:)

liferehab said...

you should try doing all those home remedies to make it pop out. I've always wondered if those work...

Ashley said...

Hopefully you feel as good as you look, too!

adriana said...

Wow. I guess that son of yours really just likes it in there.

HOW ANNOYING! I hereby make a note to myself to never say something like that to a woman who is 9 months+ pregnant.

Good luck with being at work until you pop! (Oops, that was one of those things, wasn't it?)

Laurie said...

Good job keeping your cool. Hope you're comfortable:)

Anonymous said...

You know what they say about men...9 months or so to get out, and the rest of their lives trying to get back in!

Taylor said...

I hate this, it happens at my work too. Except I'm not pregnant. But the customers tell me the same joke over and over again and everybody thinks that they're the one who thought of it.

If that makes sense? I just woke up. Anyways, hope he comes out soon!!

A said...

It will happen any day... People are stupid. Sorry.

Jules said...

Punch them and then say it's from me because I lost the pool. :)

Angela said...

How long did they give you before they induce you?

themanhattantransfer said...

In a matter of days you won't even have to think about those people for months!

My grandmonther loves telling me that she flew to Texas from New York three consecutive weekends one January, waiting for me to be born... of course I waited until the Monday morning following the third weekend, just to test her sanity. :)

What if your baby is an alien!

That would be awesome.

ET Dolce.

LiLu said...

Sex is supposed to get things moving, right? Just bang it out!

Still here?

Guess he just likes it in... *punched in face*

Katelin said...

oh man that would drive me nuts. and i totally lost the guessing game, i said the 12th, i guess he really does like it in there, haha. i kid, i kid. i'll smack them around for ya if you need me to. it just may take a while to get there :)

Zan said...

Heinous. I sympathize. I got so sick of people saying to me, "But twins usually come early!" So finally I started saying that I was leaving them in there until they were old enough to get a job and support themselves. They usually left me alone after that.

And I'm still in the running for the baby pool! Yay!

But...not yay for you, Dolce...*hugs*

*~Dani~* said...

Man! I thought this was going to be your announcement post. I will refrain from any further remarks...

Kellie said...

Holy crap. You're still here? You must have one good baby motel in that sack of yours. :)

Katie said...

Tell the kid you're going to start deducting from his college fund for every extra day he's in there. That pink motel isn't free after all.

Besides we're all super excited for you to get him here. And maybe even see a pic?

Good luck.

*~Dani~* said...

The pink motel! Hilarious.

Tipp said...

thinking of you!
