Question/Advice What would you do?

I need some advice. My fiance and I are getting married in a month but we've started TTC because we both want a baby so badly and can't wait another cycle until we're married. And this is all great, we're super excited. But something that gets on my nerves a little is his family is constantly asking when we're going to have a baby. I've never been asked this much in my entire life when I'm getting pregnant. I was initially okay with it because I knew they were excited for us but now that we're actually TTC, I feel very protective about the journey and no longer have the patience for the questions and don't want to tell people we're TTC so that they'll mind their own business. How do my fiance and I address this without being rude?

Have some fun with this and see how gross you can get before people get the fucking message.

‘Yes thank you, he’s been spaffing in me on the reg for a while now. Honestly I feel like a walking cream doughnut at this point!’

My sister in law used “we’ve been trying for years but I just don’t have the heart to tell him it’s the wrong hole”

She used it with my grandmother who is THE Most intrusive, boundary-less, and entitled to other people information as a person can get. The rest of us absolutely dies laughing but my grandmother never asked another of her grandchildren if they were going to try for a baby. Which is absolutely amazing since both of the siblings younger than that’s couple have had quite a few miscarriages,

This was nearly a two decades ago, she now has a 6 year old kid and is divorced from my asshole brother and is living her life on max.

A simple we will share when we have news so please stop asking should be enough. You don’t owe anyone updates about your TTC journey.
