I totally agree. The media seem to constantly harass celebrities about having babies, getting married, getting divorced, due date for babies. Just shut up, mind your business and wait!

Slow day in the news room if this is what journalism has come to…

It’s no ones business until the parents are ready to share the news!

Then comes the annoying question, so when are you having another one!

People ask as soon as you get married…

It is her own private business not to share with the media!

I was continually asked if I was pregnant, nope just fat but thank you for reminding me that 4.5 years of unsuccessful pregnancy attempts happened

  People can be so insensitive and invasive and I do understand this situation.

It is indeed intrusive and shows bad manners – womens bodies are private and their own and no ones business!

Everyone stopped asking after we had our 2nd (G/B)

I hate this question! People have no idea if you are trying and can’t fall pregnant or if you have suffered a loss and already feel upset about it. I know some people are just trying to be nice, but it was one of the questions I hate so much being asked. I was an older mum, falling pregnant when I was 35 and I was asked so frequently in the lead up because I was getting older. Now I get asked all the time if I am having a second. I never ask people as I know how upsetting/ intrusive it can be

Some women have problems with fluid retention to the extent that they appear to be pregnant.
(I would have been “pregnant” every month)

Yes it is intrusive but just say no I’m not pregnant. That would stop all the hoohaa in the media about it.

It’s really no ones business but the couples. It happens to most newlyweds though

People don’t always know what happens behind closed doors and whether they have been trying and all the emotion that comes with it.

“When will you have a baby?” “Never” Simple. Don’t give people more than you want to give them. No point explaining anything to anyone.

This doesn’t just happen to celebrities I think every woman has experienced it to some degree.

Yeah, people are rude. It’s no-one’s business.

I like Sylvia Jeffrey’s response about wearing spanx on all occasions

It’s a bad habit difficult to disappear. And I think celebrities have to deal even more with these problems!
