The Man's Reaction to Pregnancy

So far since being pregnant Wes and I have had several weddings and parties to go to.  I've encountered 3 reactions from men when revealing that I'm pregnant.

Here's what I've come across so far.

# 1. The Runner

"The Runner" is that guys who strikes up a conversation with a nice girl.  Conversation is going great.  Then somehow the, "what are you drinking?" question pops up and I have to confess my fake gin and tonic is just a sprite with a lime because I'm pregnant.  Immediately "The Runners" face changes to a slightly sour look as if a black cloud just appeared over my head.  He ends the conversation and when I turn around for 1 second he's gone.

# 2. Total Uncle Creepy

"Total Uncle Creepy" is that ease dropper while you are having that conversation with "The Runner" and as soon as he hears the words "I'm Pregnant" it appear that "Uncle Creepy" picks up the scent of my extra hormonal state and starts drooling!!  A bit flattering at first since you just got dissed by "The Runner" but then "Uncle Creepy" tells you how sexy you are while staring at your boobs like a big piece of steak.  Quickly find your husband or the nearest exist.

#3. The Care Bear

This one is my personal favorite.  "The Care Bear" is that guy who finds out you're pregnant and instantly asks if you need anything or wants to know how you are feeling.  Every time he goes to the bar he comes back with a water or ginger ale.  If there is something on "The Care Bears" plate that you've been eyeballing for 20 min. he takes notice and gladly hands it over.  When at a wedding "The Care Bear" makes sure you have a piece of both the Grooms chocolate cake and the Brides yellow cake.   It truly is amazing at how this group of men reacts to a woman who is preggos.

This weekend Wes and I are heading to another fun wedding!!  Wish me luck that I find lots of "Care Bears" and that I am able to avoid "Uncle Creepys" and "Runners"
