Help me come up with a smart ass retort to the "You're Gonna Pop" comments

I know this is a smart and snarky group and I was hoping we could brainstorm some obnoxious comments to use with strangers who keep weighing in on how pregnant we all are and how we are "ready to pop". Here's my contribution- I'm going to start carrying around a flask of Jack Daniels filled with apple juice around in my purse and next time someone asks me "how much longer I have left" in that annoying tone, I'm going to stare them dead in the eye, take a big gulp from my flask, and say bout a month. Any other ideas?

  • Perfect. I love making it as awkward as possible.

    I got angry when I dropped by our main office this morning and a freaking company nurse told me I looked like I was ready to pop.. I asked her if she had a pen on her so we could go ahead and burst me then and held out my hand for a pen until the uncomfortable silence drove her away. I only feel a little bad about it. 

  • I got the 'looks like that baby's dropped last night'. What could you tell by my exaggerated waddle?
  • Them: "You're about to pop"

    Me: "Yeah, you in the face."

  • It's threads like this why I love this board. You guys are fabulous! I'm cracking up over here!
  • "After I pop I won't be pregnant anymore, but will you always be so rude?"

  • I love this thread!!! I'm so sick of hearing that comment at work! None of the ladies I work with have said it, but the guys just don't know when to STFU! I get so angry. One of the guys has repeatedly been told by my female co-works NEVER to comment on a women's size, especially when pregnant. He's so insensitive.

    I'm SOOOO using this next time he says it to me! 
    "Your belt looks like it's about to pop too."
