This is a common conversation with an old acquaintance, stranger, someone who works in the same building as I do, etc.
Person: So when are you due?
Me: April
Person: Is this your first?
Me: No. I have a 2 1/2 year old boy.
Person (referring to labour and delivery): Oh. Then you'll be an old pro!
Me (thinking) ...um...not exactly!

I can relate a little.... people assume that I have done the whole labour thing. Truth is I never felt a single real contraction with H. Second kid, new experience. But too much work to take the time to explain to a stranger, and just not worth it. Your kid is your kid no matter how they came into the world, at least that's how I see it.
