asking if i'm having twins IS NOT a compliment

So its official,  I am 28 weeks and look huge.  Last night at my husbands christmas party I recieved many comments such as, "Your quite a bit bigger than K is" and might I add k is 36 weeks prego compared to my 28.  Ok no biggie I'm not letting this get me down.  Next comment "wow your really showing"  ok no shitt i'm pregnant i am pretty aware i'm showing.  Then to top the evening off I got asked if i was having more than one.  I had to take a moment to think if she was being serious...as a matter of fact she was.  My husbands male co worker just looked at her and me and then goes to me ya i can see how that would rub you the wrong way.  But got a kick out of it the rest of the night telling me how he probably couldnt have thought of anything meaner to say to a pregnant woman if he had tried.  I really wanted to go for a drink at this point...but resisted this urge.  So telling a pregnant woman shes basically fat and huge suchs just as much as not being pregnant.  Ok i'm done venting on this issue.

I got this last weekend and was surprised at how hurtful it was.  Next time, I'm going to reply that yes, it is twins, and I expect 2 gifts.

This happens to me all the time and it started early!

I just giggle and agree.  I remember how in 1st we all wanted to "show" so bad! LOL this is my payback. lol

I guess I'm just snarkier, because when women make these comments to me, I just respond, "oh you're expecting too? when are you due?" but only to the horribly rude people. I'm dying to respond to someone when they ask how far along I am, with.." Far along what? I'm not pregnant!" just to get a reaction... I'm horrible though. And find that stuff hilarious.

I get asked this question by the same bee-atch every week at the gym.

a) the answer is no

b) why do you keep asking?

c) I may have to sit my fat a$$ on you to shut you up.

WHY DO PEOPLE THINK IT'S OKAY TO SAY THAT!!!!  

P.S.  I've gotten that comment a lot!  Nevermind I haven't gained a lot of weight (my OB sternly lectured me about it).  I'm just HUGE and I know it!

It seems you're never the right size for people. I bet you look absolutely adorable.

I get people telling me I'm too small and won't be able to carry full term, others who say how huge and fat I've gotten.

Generally I tell them they can't call me fat or huge or comment on how enormous I am unless I am bigger around than they are. I carry a tape measure too, in case they attempt to argue. So far, I've won every single "argument" and every single person who has commented rudely now only says things like "Oh look how cute your belly looks" or "Hi Momma"

 

mwahahahaha.
