Tired Of Being Asked When Will They Have A Baby, This Couple Posted These Pics

Tired Of Being Asked When Will They Have A Baby, This Couple Posted These Pics

ADVERTISEMENT

The social pressure of having a baby can be exhausting, but this couple decided to respond with humor. They have been married for three years and claim that everyone is already bugging them about pregnancy, so both of them agreed to introduce their new family member as soon as he joined the house. Meet Leelu!

This is not the first time people got annoyed by these questions. Australians Abby and Matt did a similar photoshoot with their puppy, and two Austin-based comedians even used a burrito.

“My husband and I have been married 3 years and everyone is bugging us about having a baby. Close enough right?”

It’s not the first time that something similar happens. This couple for example did a photoshoot with a burrito:

And this couple did a newborn photoshoot with their dog

What about you? Do you get annoyed by these questions?

Haha, nice idea. :) And you know what? Good for them! It's silly that in 21st century people still have such expectations. This couple is young and happy, why does anyone want to enforce them to do anything? There's a lot of people (and babies in need of a good home) already, we don't need to copulate like rabbits to increase our population. Let them choose when they will a baby (or IF they want it at all). And btw that puppy is adorable. :3

I am married for ten years, and I find people asking this rude, because you can't assume what are we dealing with, maybe we can't have a baby.. Last time someone asked me I actually replied with ''I can't have a baby'' because i was frustrated. Of course that person was confused, shocked and embarrassed. Oh and, ''it's time for your to walk a baby instead of your dog'' is most frustrating one.

It's so rude for people to bug couples about having a baby, and also to judge when someone can't have a baby. It's the worst when you're a woman and is constantly told that your biological clock is ticking.

I'm totally gonna do something like this when we're getting a puppy :P And it can be annoying when other people keep bugging you about babies. Not everyone wants one (or not at that time) but that seems to be hard to understand for some. Not sure why it is though, it has zero effect on their lives what we do with ours so... :P

I think no one should feel like that have any right to comment or question when or why someone else should have children. It's stunningly rude. If they want you to know, they will confide. Until then, mind your own business!

Totally love this, I'm currently dealing with feeling very frustrated and sad that my hubby and are are trying to have a baby with no luck. People asking us all the time if we're pregnant or when were going to have kids is salt in the wound and none of their business!

Nice to know that the end of humanity as we know will end with the whiny, pretentious, me,me,me superficial, millennials. All of you grew up with a pat on your head and a prize for participation no matter what you did or didn't do. You were never spanked, you were coddled, your parents told you that everything that you did was ok, even if it wasn't. You were taught about 'stranger danger' and sex education was taboo. If you were any more sheltered, you would be living in a bubble. You think that you pets are your children, like you gave birth to them even though your concept of how sex happens and how families are made is either warped or non existent because of ultra conservative parenting and so called education. I am the parent of two millennial sons and I am a grandparent of 3 grandsons. My sons are smart, but only as smart as education allowed, now they have this ' the world owes me a living' attitude and it sickens me. The world is in your hands and you are squandering it.

You are a rude b***h. I wasn't coddled, I got spanked. I didn't get prizes for participation for whatever. Those were for the entitled rich parents who couldn't accept their little snowflake wasn't the next Lebron or Jordan. Stranger danger was real, because psychos are real. Sex Ed was taught both ways, abstinence and not - diseases were mentioned, we were told to use condoms and birth control. Pets are "children," it's a tongue in cheek "f**k your family rules." We ruined vacations because we don't take them - we can't, there isn't enough money for it. We're flat broke. And guess what? We're not buying expensive diamonds or having kids, for the same reasons. The world didn't owe anything. Our parents and grandparents owed us a better world, not this b******t we're stuck with. Keep blaming us for your excesses, and ridiculousness. Go on. We'll be here cleaning up your messes after you're no more than a rotting corpse. GTFO with your b******t, rude entitled overbearing whiny self.
