unnecessary comments

in February 2013 Moms
So one of my coworkers comes up to me while I'm talking to another coworker and says "you don't look very pregnant in that shirt" and I just said "oh well" and then she says "no, that's a good thing"... Really?? What the hell is that supposed to mean? I just ignored her and kept talking. People are really stupid. It kills me how they think they're trying to be funny or trying to compliment somehow and you just want to say are you hearing yourself?! ugh.

    Haha! Oh jeez. I had a coworker the other day say, "Some days you look huge and others I can barely tell your pregnant at all."

    I just kinda laughed it off and was like, "Oh well probably depends on what I'm wearing or what I've been eating." :P

    I've changed my tactics when dealing with weirdo pregnancy comments!!

    My new "go-to" when someone makes a strange/negative comment body-related & negative about "the woes" of normal pregnancy life... I just lovingly touch my bump and say "I love my pregnant body...how many people grew a human today? It's pretty amazing!"

    It sounds like she was trying to compliment you but it came out wrong. Then she tried to recover by saying that it was a compliment which just made it weirder...in other words, it was just an all-around FAIL. lol

    After comments about how I don't look pregnant at all, today I had three coworkers (seperately) tell me how "huge" and "extremely pregnant" and "exhausted and pregnant" I suddenly looked. Geez- thanks.
