Reply To: Exciting Facts that we’ll have by Geula

Hi, I may not be as active for the next while, but will try to respond to posts when I’m on. A gutte voch from my locality.

To Motcha: allow me to reframe your post:
(Kalla teacher). Hi kalla. I heard that you’re very excited for your wedding and building your bayis neemon and that got me somewhat worried so I’m calling to set you straight. Let’s start with the wedding. You know, the one you’re dreaming of all day. Here’sa reality check: many families have disputes on at least something during the engagement period, so there’s likely to be hard feelings between them. Also, mothers in law are known not to like daughter in law, and she’s likely to offend you at the wedding, if not earlier. Did you know there’s been many chassanim who have had to miss most of their wedding because they got glass in their foot?

And don’t get me started on after the wedding. The shana rishona is the hardest year of marriage. (Etc etc)

Pregnancy? Morning sickness, no energy, you may need bed rest etc.

Birth? You want to give birth??? Are you mad??? You could die!!
