I have a friend who used to do a very odd thing. If she got up to use the bathroom during the night she would be afraid to go back to bed in case dh had an alien invade his body during the time she was gone (this woman has watched waaaaay too many movies).

So - she would yell questions from the bathroom only he would know the answers to until she was convinced it was really him.

I have nothing to top that one. Do you?

Can't think of one but that is funny! LOL:lol:

But that is really funny!

Um, my df in high school believed her bf when he told her that if they put her tires on backwards she could drive forward in reverse. :)
Also, she was in nursing school when I was pg with my first, and she honestly asked me what happened when I ate. It was something like this, "So, like, if you eat a big bowl of spaghetti, does it just fall onto the baby? Is the baby going to be covered in food when she's born? Cause, that's like, gross." LOL

That... pretty much takes the cake. :blink:

If I were him I would've answered the questions wrong and made her sleep in the bathroom. Wise up, woman!

Oh my goodness that is funny! My aunt was a labor and delivery nurse and she said she had a women that was in the thro's of it and asked, "So where does the baby come out?" Seriously. :001_huh:

This person had way too much fun in their young adult years. Were chemicals and issue? I'm surprised she did not look for any marks on his neck. Probe sites perhaps?

That is one INSANELY tolerant husband. roflol...

No, I have NOTHING to top that. lol...

[Laurel T.]

HUMM...I think I am going to test my husband's tolerance level and try that one tonight. I am thinking he would probably ignore me or have me committed. We will see.

Just think of the fun he could have had if he'd answered incorrectly! I wouldn't have been able to resist!

Ok, I thought my neighbor who asked, "When will she open her eyes?" (as if my newborn was like a *kitten*, lol) was dense, but this beats that, hands down!

[*anj*]

Ummm, no.
I would love to top that, but ummm, no.


As for the "when will she open her eyes?" comment from gardenschooler, I have a similar story.
My first dd was born about 6 weeks prematurely. She was a tiny little thing and she loved to be all bundled up in blankets and she'd curl up in her car seat sleeping when we went places. So we had gone to some event at church and I left her sleeping (strapped into her infant seat, but covered with a blanket) on top of a table. My friend's teenage son went over to look at the new baby (he hadn't seen her before.) He got a strange look on his face and went over to his mom and said "OMG, Mom. That baby doesn't have any legs!!"
:lol:
Because she was so tiny in the first place, and all curled up under her blanket he didn't think she had legs!
Ahhh, memories!

My pregnant neighbor asked if she could come over and ask some questions about the coming baby. So, I was sharing some wisdom on breast-feeding, diapering etc. and happened to mention something about getting up to feed the baby during the night - she said "You mean they wake up and need to eat?!" She was 40 years old. Even if this was her first baby, you'd think she'd have heard of waking up to feed crying babies!

Then she called me about 5 months after the baby was born - could I come over to hold the baby while she made the bed? I said "Sure" but was wondering - "Was this the first time she made the bed in 5 months?" "What's wrong with putting him on the floor? or in a baby seat? or play-pen?" Every few months she calls with a strange request but they're good neighbors overall and so am I! Really, it usually only takes about 15 min. of my time - so I don't mind.

I can just see your aunt (well, not really, I don't know your aunt, but I can see a mythical nurse in this situation) thinking "Oh, honey, are YOU in for a shock ...!"

I laughed so hard, it brought on the first really strong contraction in two days! I need more humorous stories!

Thank you. :)
