Why do people insist on pestering those who don't have children like there's something wrong with us?

When I met my mother in law for the first time, she said "You have nice eyes, the baby will have nice eyes"

Wow. People are baby crazy.

@ChasingBrainBros: well when are you going to have a baby?

@ChasingBrainBros: it's like as soon as they find out you don't have kids they become your project

@juiceyangel333: I think this is one of the reasons people should talk less about other people having babies. We had a miscarriage late last year. It hurt a lot. But it's impossible to avoid talking about babies.

@Adelh91: There's a movie I saw a few years ago where parents ask their daughter and her partner if they're going to have kids, and she responds "Oh yes, thank you for reminding me, we'll go and make a start on that now" then takes her partner by the hand and leads him upstairs.

The rest of the scene is the parents looking confused and upset. It tickled me :)
