I was at a gas station today pumping gas, leaning against my car, and minding my own business when I heard a voice say, "Ma'am, I have to say that it looks like you're going to have your baby in the next few hours." Confused, I look around and realize that the voice belongs to the woman who works inside the gas station. She is talking to me through the speaker on the pump. Not thrilled with the direction I knew this was headed in, I replied, "I don't think so." Confused, she asked, "Then how many months are you?" This is not a number I keep in my head, so after some quick calculation I answered, "7.5." Downright astonished, she asked, "Is it twins, then?" My cheerful "Yep!" was met with "Well, good luck!" in a most sarcastic tone, and there was no more to be heard from Mrs. Gas Station.
For real. Abuse of gas pump speakers at it's finest, wouldn't you say?

Yet another reason I need to start my t-shirt business - "don't look at me, or talk to me, I'm pregnant and will punch you in the face". T thinks it's a bit wordy.
I had a protracted conversation with a woman working at the gas station when I was about 7 months, but she at least talked face-to-face (she also thought I was about to pop, and I had only 1 in there!)
You are kidding?!?!
