you look like you're going to pop

WHY, oh WHY do people say this? I GET I look very pregnant....this statement doesn't help in any way, shape or form.

Re: you look like you're going to pop

  • I had this very comment today, as I was leaving work - from a male co-worker.  I told him to shut up and that wasn't very nice - also that I was gonna punch him in the face if he made anymore comments!  This is not the first time he's said anything out of line since I started showing.  His response "I just like babies."

  • i had a 16 yr old cashier tell me that when i was 27 weeks... and when i said 'no, still have a while!' she said 'oh, so you're having multiples?'

    this was all after she commented on the ice cream and doughnuts i was buying (ice cream for hubby, doughnuts for myself). she was certain i was having a weird pregnancy craving.

    the only thing that saved her was that she was so young.

  • i have the opposite problem. people keep telling me i dont look that big. or they can only just now tell i'm pregnant by looking at me. so WTF did i just look like i had gotten fat before?

  • I think everyone should keep their prego comments about others to themselves.

    Unless of course they're obviously nice comments. Ex. "You look great" "You're glowing" "Pregnancy looks great on you"... etc

    I always get the "you've gained a lot of weight!" I have gained 13 freaking pounds! Those people are A holes in my opinion.
