Things you're sick of hearing

"Oh, you look just about ready to pop! When are you due?"
(2 more months, but thanks for making me feel like a freak.)
"Wow, look at the shape of that bump, you're all out in front. You MUST be having a boy."
(Nope. So there goes your wivestale.)

Re: Things you're sick of hearing
"Your life is about to end.hahaha"
Like I already can sleep i think I'll be fine. And my life's not about to end, we just starting a new journey:)
Upon finding out I'm not due until mid-May: "Oh, are you having twins?"
No. No, I am not.
A baby!!! I want a healthy baby!!!
"Are you disappointed it wasn't a girl?"
(My third boy)
Nope, not at all. Ugh, I'm so over the small talk about my pregnancy with women who really don't care. And seeing the reactions on their face when I answer that I have 2 months left.
You look like you're about to pop. Are you? Nope.
You better be enjoying all the sleep your getting now. Noo Stahhhp! (and I'm not getting any so f you)
Wow look at your belly. Yep right where it always is.
And when I correct people and say, "no, it's for sure a girl" I've actually had people argue back and say "well, sometimes they just don't see the boy bits, but that doesn't mean they're not there." ...again. that's a nice statement to make but not at all how it works. Girl parts actually do appear different on ultrasound. They don't just look for a penis and if they can't find one, assume it's a girl.
How rude to say to any women much less a pregnant women. Yes I am tired but I woke up feeling good and you just squashed that good feeling bc you think I look like death.
Are you really? It looks like twins. Yes and double checked. But if one is hiding I'll let you have it.
Well you are big enough to have twins. Thanks but I'm still smaller than you.
Me: next crazy comment please. I have ass hole retorts for days .
Wow look at that belly button!
It sure sticks out there!
Oh I forgot that one lol so annoying like no I didn't think of that
How far are you? Do you know what your having? What are you going to name her? Is it your first? Are you excited? Are you going to do a natural birth? (Can't believe strangers actually ask this) Are you going to keep your dog? You look tired. And my personal fave of all time "i used to be tiny like u but when i got pregnant i gained (insert crazy amount of weight)." Or i was waaaay bigger at (x months)" or any of the "when i was pregnant..." genre
Me: umm no.
"Well it's gonna be a 12 lb baby"
Yeah thanks a-hole. I work in a hospital & get multiple comments from staff, coworkers, strangers every day. I'm SO over it.
Me on lunch eating fruit and cheese ...oh your eating good for the baby, how good of you. Uh no I would like normal food too but reflux and heartburn say no. Don't judge me by what I'm eating..... =;
"Oh no sleep huh? It is just baby preparing you for the no sleep when she gets here" Ugh shutup!
"Wow she is really popping out today" Oh really? That must be what that elephant-in-my-stomach feeling is.
I envy all you guys getting these comments. I'm over 34 weeks and people can't even tell.
To the stupid guy manning the exhibitor booth next to mine this week, your stupid question "so are you due this week?" really? that's your ice breaker? I answer, "no I have about 6 more weeks." your response that I look big is really shitty...so now I tell you I'm having twins doesn't mean you can tell me how my life is over as I know it...really? well, I'll gladly take twins after 2 1/2 years of trying and 4 IVF treatments...so F* off.
"You just can't breathe because of the weight you've obviously put on during pregnancy."
Um. Dude, thanks. I've been actually really struggling to gain enough weight this pregnancy, especially while being so sick with no appetite and in too much pain to eat.
That, and pregnancy doesn't cause pneumonia, thanks.
Also tired of the "it gets worse" comments when people find out how little sleep I've been getting.
And the "how is the baby?" from people at work. "Same as always..."
