What is your pregnancy pet peeve?
Mine today is people who wear an entire bottle of perfume to the gym. I have to move to another machine b/c my eyes start to water and I can't breath. Rose water is the worst for me, but I'll give a special nod to the teenagers who drown themselves in that crappy Axe body spray before hitting the gym as well.

People who push me out of the way to get into the elevator and then it gets so crowded I cannot get on. Or I do get on and this able bodied person takes the elevator to the 2nd floor. Are you kidding me??
I have an obvious bump now. I'm pregnant and going to the 10th floor. You are perfectly fine and you cannot walk up 1 flight of stairs?
Stupid questions. One of my coworkers asked "Who makes a Chrysler New Yorker?"
Yes, I'm serious. (FYI, she was looking for Chrysler, which she obviously already knew).

Trying again..
After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

My co-irker's voice. I don't know why, but ever since I got pregnant I want to throw my shoe at him every time he opens his mouth.
My MIL calling the baby " MY baby"
She'll call and ask " how's my baby doing?!"
NO HOOKER. ?THIS IS MINE!!
?
(she went crazy wanting a girl with my H and when he was born a boy she was disappointed!! ? So now... *sigh* she's finally getting her girl...)?
I worked with one of those. My DH said it was good I got laid off before I got pregnant b/c the chances of me not wailing on him when I was pregnant was slim to none, seriously this guy would DANCE in front of my desk.
LMAO!
One word: TOUCHING.
I'm sorry, when did the idea of personal space become a thing of the past?
when I'm at work & ppl sneeze or blow their nose in their offices/cubicles & don't get up to wash their hands ... now that i'm pregnant I a freak about other pple's germs
I have a lot of pet peeves from pre pregnancy. the one that has popped up since being pregnant is Radio DJ voices. I can't stand them. They are sounds like nails on a chalkboard to me.
Thank God for Pandora.
people constantly saying the following to me:
"Just wait.... "
"You'll understand soon."
"See what you have to look forward to?"
"How are you feeling?" - I know this is out of kindness, but 20 times a day everyday gets old.
Hee hee! Me too!
One word: MIL
She is so rude. I have asked her repeatedly not to touch my bloat belly and she said "sorry, I cannot follow that rule" umm... it is my body.
We live in a nice little town, but we do have people of different races living here *gasp* and she was sitting on our front yard and said "we better go inside so we don't get shot". Dear god.
She now suddenly calls DH her "baby boy" and will say things like: "Don't take my baby boy away" when we leave family get togethers.
Can you say "Hold on, I'll get DH for you and you can ask him how he's doing?"
This for me too and add on things like "Your whole life is going to change" "Enjoy your freetime (sleep, money, etc) now" People we were not born yesterday! We know having a baby will be a big change!
LOL!
these are just pet peeves that have been amplified due to being pregnant, they have always bugged me!
Tardiness (can not freaking stand people who are late)
People who stand at my desk while i am on the phone and WAIT for me to get off instead of leaving and coming back. HELLO on a phone call, stop being rude and leave me the heck alone!
I also hate the "you'll see" comments. Drives me up the wall. I also have a BIL who is now father to 5 kids, so apparently he knows it all since carried each of them, who said to me upon finding out I'm pregnant, "The reason you're tired all the time is because you're not getting enough exercise." Are you kidding me?!! I wanted to smack him!
Exactly!!
