People awkward around you?

edited August 2014 in December 2014 Moms
Has anyone noticed how awkward some people are around pg people???? I work with a guy that already I think is kinda strange/odd but at our meeting on Friday and also last week I noticed that he will NOT stop staring at my bump. Like out of the corner of my eye I can see him just staring at it lol.

Then I had a customer today who I took outside to look at homes under construction and she was literally OBSESSED with my "safety". Would not let me talk 1 sentence without saying "oh careful!" "Should you walk over here?" "Be careful in those heels!" Nonstop. I just kept thinking to myself "shut up!" Lol. This is my career...I'm pg not stupid.

    I have a friend who is super awkward about it. She makes weird comments and even told me the other day the baby didn't seem "real" to her since she hadn't felt him kick yet so in her head I'm just getting fat. Really?!?!

    I wouldn't say awkward necessarily but maybe strange. The men at my work won't let me do like anything. I used to inspect rooms every Friday and Saturday to help housekeeping and now my boss makes me sit in my office and dispatch instead. Today I called the sales director to let him know I was leaving and he told me to go home and eat pickles and ice cream. Uhhh no? That's gross. I also had an employee bring me a pickle flavored popsicle. Gross! I'm pregnant, not entering a pickle eating contest. Treat me like normal!

    One coworker freaked out when I was carrying a 5 lb box. She also wouldn't let me bend over to pick something up and this was when I was 10 weeks a long!

    They are good until they find out that I am having a third boy and not upset about it.

    Oh yeah I am totally seeing it. I'm in Vegas for work for 9 days and every single day at least 5 people ask me how I am feeling if I need anything and always telling me to go sit and take breaks. I mean it's nice that they care, but it's just too much. Lol

    These crack me up! I work in finance so 99% men...they barely notice I'm pregnant. They expect me to drink, carry heavy things, walk far, stay up late...lol.

    I have a friend who is always awkward around pregnant friends and babies.  She wouldn't hold one of our friends babies because it would be weird to "hold something that came out of her vagina." Um, ok, why are you even thinking about that? lol
