Today, I held a party for my family so I could announce my pregnancy. In the middle of my speech, my mother stopped me, saying, "Nobody gives a rat's ass, where's the booze?" FML
opherehehhehe tells us more.
The speech took less than 2 minutes, it was a brief message thanking everyone for coming and how me and my husband greatly appreciate it. The party was the only way to gather my whole family. A dinner reservation would cost hundreds of dollars considering the size of my family. My brother just led my mother out and we carried on. Yes, we did supply a little wine but be didn't want a lot of alcohol considering I am pregnant and I don't want anyone drunk. Just clearing it up (:

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

She's just looking out for the health of your baby. Now that you can't consume your alcohol, your mom just wants to remove it from your home for safety's sake. You are blessed to have a mom who will "take one for the team!"

Maybe she wanted to drink all the booze before you could have mistakenly had some for the sake of your baby.

Why are you holding a speech about getting pregnant anyway? No wonder people were bored. Just yell out "Oh by the way Im pregnant!"

That just makes it seem like she doesn't care about her baby.

I'm sure that when the baby comes he or she's most fond memory will be of that wonderful speech held in honor of conception! But no really... A speech is wildly unnecessary.

That would seem so flippant towards her new child. If i were preggers, i would definitely throw a party to tell everyone, even though it would be a small one. Her speech could have been 30 second for all we know. Not all speeches are long.

that's when you beat her with a bottle and blame the pregnancy hormones.
