To a pregnant woman.
I can think of 2 right now–
1) You’re still pregnant!?
Oh wow! I am? I hadn’t noticed? Man, this pregnancy must have been hard on you!
2) Wow, you really popped out didn’t you? or Boy, you sure look pregnant!
Oh I do? I didn’t notice the extra 30 pounds I’m carrying around. It’s not like there is a baby in there or anything.
So, what have people said to you when you are pregnant that makes you want to kick them in the head?
Sorry, not bitter, just shaking my head and laughing–a little.
I’m fine with the due date, honestly, I’m not too impatient. UNTIL all the people due after me are being induced or having c-sections scheduled before my due date since I am not being induced as far as we can help it unless my fluid is low or something. The risk of c-sections is higher if you are induced, so that is why I am not being induced since we’re trying for a VBAC. Anywho, I’ll be patient. Like my mom said, she’s easier to take care of now!
Yeah, I heard several people say stuff like that to you last night. I hope I wasn’t one of them. I know how annoying it is when people say stuff like that.
You look great though!
How about being asked if your pregnant when you baby is a year and a half old…That one hurts, yikes!
It’s been too long for me to remember the cruel things people can say, but I do feel for you! And you’re such a cute pregnant lady. Good luck over the next week or so!
Oops. Sorry, was my comment on one of the other posts one of those annoying ones? That’s funny what your mom said, SO TRUE!!
Oh poor Christie! I feel ya.. it sucks when people make mindless comments. I got one time from a fellow classmate… not really a friend just an acquaintance, mind you I was like 35 weeks along… and huge! “Hey, are you pregnant? I wasn’t sure… you know…?” I was thinking like “as opposed to being just fat?”
Crazy! Good luck with the VBAC, I hope you get too!
Nope, no one who reads this has said anything to make me laugh inside about a comment you’ve said:).
All of these were said in succession by the same man, whom I had never met before!
“Wow, you must be due any day now.” (nope, I still had 2 months to go)
“Are you having one or two babies?”
“Have all of your babies been big?”
