5 reasons why you shouldn’t ask “when are you going to have a baby”? There are several reasons why you should not ask newlyweds and people generally when they are going to have a baby. Today, I will share just 5 reasons why that is not a good question to ask. 1. They might be trying to have a baby and it’s not happening. 2. They might just have had a miscarriage. 3. They might not be ready for a baby just yet and just enjoying each other’s company. 4. They might not want a baby. Not everyone wants a baby. 5. It’s none of your business And until next time, know that You are enough, you are worthy! Learn to Live life in the present And know that nothing last forever so everything will be fine! Take care of YOU, YOU are all you've got! #just5
