[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure it's rude, but it falls into a "this is not your business" category. If I were the couple I'd answer the question with a question: "Why would you like to know?" When I was deep into infertility I had a distant uncle drunkenly grill me at dinner, in front of a table full of people, about when I was having kids. I told him he'd be the first to know, with a big smile on my face. He got all flustered like "well I doubt that's true" and stammered away. But I was always glad I'd been able to shut him down about something that was deeply painful for me.[/quote] I think the presumption at asking atp is that the couple is celibate roughly and hasn’t been “trying” so they aren’t stepping into an infertility landline but making conversation. The answer of course is “we’re planning to have 10 kids so yes we plan to get started right away!” as happily as you can muster [/quote]
