im so sick of.......................

[Huddsgirl]

People giving they're opinion on my bump.
I work at a supermarket and i am sick of people thinking i want to here what they have to say about my size
everytime i say i have ten weeks left they say ' are u sure there is not three in there' or ' you're massive'
or i just get the wide open eyed gesture as if to say bloody hell.
Im not even that big i have only put on a stone and a half and my bump is average i think. if i could put on a picture i would ask for your advice.
I just really dont know how big these people expect me to be at almost 8 months pregnant.

Aww, i used to get it all the time.
The woman i work with drove me nuts. "wow, you've grown loads! You're quite big now!"
I'd be like, "Well actually, according to the midwife i've not grown in 5 weeks!!!" (Which i hadn't)
She used to tell me they were wrong!!!
Just reply with some smartarsed comment like "Yeah but i'm pregnant, Whats your excuse?!"

I keep getting people ask if I'm having twins too...

I am measuring big but only by 2 weeks and I was a big girl to start with so I don't even think baby is that big really!!! I'm sure everyone thinks it's the first time someone has said something so 'funny' to me

Bless! Easier said than done, I know, but just ignore their comments! I've been exactly the same, people keep telling me I'm massive and asking if I'm sure I'm not expecting triplets etc but when I went to the airport at 34+2 the check in lady didn't even realise I was pregnant until I told her

People who say such things such have a stupid need give out stupid comments! Ignore them hun, honestly. Every woman and every bump is different

 

[hennaly]

Same here girls, it doesnt help that i now walk like an umpa lumpa, i swear they think im gonna drop right in front of them

 

[Morganuk]

It can be a pain in the but I know.

I sometimes think people feel obliged to comment on your bump but good thing is hun your nearly at the end now.
Just smile say thanks and then change the topic lol.

Good luck hun.

I get this all the time and I hate it! But now if people ever comment, I just look at them with a blank face and don't say anything! Kind of confuses them and they change the subject!

Lol, i actually enjoy it now, im getting really big and people keep asking me if im due this month (im bigger than my Av now took last month) i just laugh and say not quite yet, the week before xmas then the xmas baby jokes come out... dont touch my bump though my OH may kill you

 

[Alicebabe]

Grr I get this too - even my mum comments on how big I am every single time she sees me which can get a little annoying. It made me so paranoid, I had to ask the midwife if I was too big and she said definitely not and I only measured 1 week bigger than I should. It makes me want to cover up rather than be proud because everyone has an opinion!

Grr I get this too - even my mum comments on how big I am every single time she sees me which can get a little annoying.

My mum has taken to calling me 'tubs' or 'tubby' every time she see's me!! I know she thinks it's funny and she's my mum and all but it makes me want to punch her in the face

 

[emmie]

were carrying babies in our bellies what are these people expecting for god sake just ignore them hun or say, i see you have put a bit of weight on are you pregnant lol, that will shut them up

 

[Huddsgirl]

thanks girls. its comforting to know that its not just me.
The funny thing is i was mesuring two weeks behind on my last M/W appointment and i have only just caught up and the M/W said i had nothing to worry about grrrrrrrrrrr.
The worst thing someone has said was ' alright fatso' i thought that was a bit to harsh.

 

[crackers24]

I know she thinks it's funny and she's my mum and all but it makes me want to punch her in the face

LOL

 

[Naterjack]

my mum said to me the other day "gosh you have put on a lot of weight havent you!"
I was gutted - why is it ALWAYS worse when it comes from your mum !!??
