Pregnant after a Loss

Ok I finally have a pregnancy peeve

This has now happened twice and I don't normally care about this type of thing but I finally found one to be offended by.

People who I talk with about being obviously pregnant (was joking with the coffee shop baristas about acting offended like I wasn't actually pregnant) and then they brought up someone else and said, "but you know l, she is tiny and all belly." So me and my fat ass got all offended, I realize I tend to do pregnancy all over but who the hell would point that out to someone??  I mean, my 7yo did but I denounced him from my lineage and told him to never say such things again...he's a kid so at least has an excuse.

Happened before as well, second time sealed the annoyance.

(And I have gained just over 50 pounds, and had gained 20 with my losses so sure, I am heavier right now but as with my previous two full pregnancies WILL lose the dang weight, ugh).

    I hate when people say such things. I secretly pray it came out wrong or that they are just lacking in people skills. Either way, it can be very hurtful and annoying. My saying now is pay no mind to simple minds. I am huge right now, I don't have the cute little belly thing going on. I have a long torso and I was well over my target weight when I got pregnant. I am to the point that I don't care what people think of my belly, I am just so glad and grateful I am growing a baby finally. They can literally go run into a parked car for all I care. I am sorry this happened to you.

  • People suck. I'm sure you're beautiful no matter how pregnant you look. Everyone carries pregnancy differently and while some people look like they swallowed a basketball, that's not how everyone looks. I'm sure you look great and you'll lose whatever weight you gain PP. I'm sorry you have encountered such rude people.

    Haha, me too! Can I just say that I think an unlisted side effect of the Progesterone is hot flashes? I am sitting in my office, and I am sweating as much as the lady down the hall who is going through menopause!!!
