What is your reaction when you hear that a friend is pregnant or someone you know had a baby?
The reactions are usually divided up between 2 sides:
1) The ohhh & ahhhh's, I'm so happy for you, hugs and kisses all around, then preceded by a fast dash to the nearest store that has baby items where you will purchase some teeny tiny fluffy (over-priced) item that the baby will never wear or use and
2) The rolling of your eyes, the shaking of your head, the over all disgust feeling, the memories of sleepless nights and dirty diapers, not being able to recall the last time you watched a movie that wasn't animated, the feeling of total exhaustion, not to mentions what happens to your body.
So, why is the subject so divided? Is it a selfish response? Does it have something to do with the specific individual? Just some food for thought.......
