I hate people today!  

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
Three times today I've had people tell me I don't look pregnant.

SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!

Yes, I know I'm fat. Yes, I know I'm REALLY FAT.

But, saying one time that you didn't 'notice' or 'couldn't tell' I was pregnant is enough. Don't go on about how I just don't look pregnant... you had no idea!

I am 40 weeks pregnant. My baby is DUE TOMORROW. This means that my hormones are OUT OF FREAKING CONTROL and telling me over and over again about how I just don't look pregnant is not helping! Commenting on how I don't walk like a pregnant person doesn't help either!

If you feel the need to be slightly surprised to find out I'm pregnant--that's understandable, but going on and on and on about how I just don't look pregnant is just about as rude as saying, "Wow, you're really fat.. you should look into that.. "

Never would have thought of it like that. Sorry people are rude

Sorry you had a bad day. Too bad people don't try to think more before they speak.

I'm sorry mama

if it's any consolation when you're really skinny and look pregnant for nine months it gets just as tiring for people to start saying "any day now, huh" at 5 months.

i got that too..... didnt really start looking pregnant til right at the end.... dh could tell of course, and people who knew me well, but i moved here at like 20 weeks, so no one knows what i look like normally- although i was looking normal then.... at 38 weeks i had someone ask when i was due, and i was so happy, lol, it was the first time a stranger asked me that

I'm sorry, I swear sometimes people just open their mouths and let whatever emerge.

I keep having people tell me that I don't look pregnant from behind?! Because that looks like what exactly? Why don't they just stop talking!
