my nosey neighbor saw my husband and i at the lab when i was getting blood work. she wanted to know what we were doing there. i told her we were going through a local fertility specialist to have a baby and i needed labs. she looked at my husband in shock and ASKED HIM what his ex-wife thinks about him having another child... WHY WOULD SHE ASK THAT? (she does know his ex-wife, she still lives in our town)

I have a feeling you're about to find out what the ex-wife thinks of that, lol.

If your neighbor was at the lab you should've asked her what she was doing there as well. She sounds like she is just a rude lady. If she frequently makes you feel uncomfortable, just tell her you don't appreciate her comments and you don't feel it is any of her business. It seems that she is probably gathering information for his ex-wife anyway. Make sure you stand up to her, the nicer you are the more she will keep pushing you. "Give an inch they take a mile", Especially nosey people like that.

When someone asks you an inappropriate question you do not owe them an answer. They know they are out of line. Just stare at them until they walk away, totally ignore them, or tell them right outright it's none of their business. They are so hardened against other people's feeling that the last one will probably be needed so grow a spine and do it.
And by the way, was there a problem with your husband's mouth that day?

tell her that it is none of her damn businees and that since he IS with you now that his ex wife need not be concerned. Are you and his ex on speaking terms? Just how friendly are you? My grandma is really good friends with my grandpa's ex wife and they get along great. In that type of situation, I know that the ex would be happy for my grandma. Your husband's ex may be the same way. Does she know about the decision? You guys may want to tell her if she doesnt. Tell your neighbor that she needs to leave you alone and that she does need to know and that when you are ready to tell her, then you will.

That was a rude thing to say in that situation and I hope your husband put her in her place. That is one person I would not confide in anymore. I'm sure you will be getting a phone call soon from the ex......or someone else who is being nosey.

Dont stress.
It is no one else's concern.
Least of all the ex and your nosey neighbour.
They should be looking to their own concerns
They are obviously full of malice.
I wish you well and do hope you are successful.
Live for your selves and ignore others negativity
You and your husband are above this sort of mischief
Above all be happy

Your husband needs to tell her that his ex wife or present wife for that matter are none of her concern and please keep her thoughts to herself from now on and be a good neighbor!!! Good luck on the baby!! Been there

it's none of her business..that's because she is an EX wife. How RUDE of a neighbor to even ask.

All the answers provided so far have been right, maybe she is secretly happy you have to resort to a fertility clinic to actually get pregnant.
How rude.

I'd have been pissed! Did your husband say anything to her? I probably would've jumped right in and told her to mind her own damn business -- then and every time I would see her for a while after. That's so uncool.
