How do you deal with co-workers who constantly tell you how big you are getting and say you have to be having twins because your belly is so big? I'm 22 weeks and I've gained 6 lbs so far. Most of my pre-pregnancy clothes still fit except recently my skinny jeans have become tight but I can still button them. I'm trying to let their comments go in one ear and out the other but as a person who has always struggled with my weight and I'm trying to accept that I will gain weight during pregnancy it is really hard for me to hear these kinds of comments. I really want to punch them in the face but I'm at work (plus I'm not that kind of person it just makes me angry!)
Re: Co-Workers commenting on your big belly
Even if you are comfortable enough speaking to the person directly, I would honestly speak to your HR Dept. anyway -- just in case anything came of it.

It's absolutely a dick move to comment on a coworker's body, pregnant or not, but in the interest of keeping your sanity and self esteem, just try to remind yourself that they don't MEAN to be assholes.
