Great Thread!

Okay I will share all of my mom's stories ( sorry mom! )

When my mom was pregnant with my sister she saw Rosemary's baby in the theater and that night she found her first stretch marks and was hysterically crying that the devil was scratching her. LOL my mom's mom passed when she was very young so she didn't know anything. . . my dad had to explain a lot of stuff to her about the pregnancy. . .

When my brother was being born, it was a HORRIBLE blizzard ( April 1971 ) and my dad couldnt get home from work. My mom and our neighbor went door to door until they could find a neighbor to drive her to the hospital - someone she never met before drove her in an ice storm!

As for me, my sister was 14 and my brother was 12 when she went to the GYN to explain that she was going through menopause. The doctor AND nurse come into the room hysterically laughing and tell her she is pregnant. She was like um no i said MENOPAUSE LOL she didnt believe it and she didnt tell my dad for a week she was so upset

And then I was born in a regular hospital room bc the doctors thought my mom was exagerating about her pain level and there was the top of my head when they checked!!!

OH YEAH and my mom called my dad to say she was on her way to the hospital and he STAYED at his company's Christmas party!!! LOL my mom said that dads didnt come into teh room all teh time back then . . .
