    I feel ya. This is baby number 2 and I am only 32w3d and everyone asks me if I am going to pop any day now. When I tell them I am due the end of August, they get quiet and say "oh".

    For me its the opposite, "you don't look that far along" "are you sure?" Let's just agree people are annoying!

    Yes! I look very tiny, because I have a long torso, but Im measuring ahead! So people have asked me if I'm due in like December and I have literally LOL'ed a couple times.  I try not to...but its hard not to sometimes!

    This morning arty church I got, "Oh, you just look miserable!" Gee, thanks! I thought I had been hiding it better than that. I guess 2 full weeks of contractions and false labor and hardly any sleep will do that to you.

    This is me too. I get so tired of hearing, "oh you don't look 35 weeks!" Or "you're pregnant?" I think it's a compliment in a twisted way but please. I have a 5lb baby in tbere and you're gonna ask me if I'm pregnant.

    I was the same way until this last month. I had people asking me "how far long are you 4 months!?!" I was like "EMM no try 32 weeks" I am pretty tall though. I was worried that maybe I was gaining enough weight but my midwives all said it's because other people gain too much lol. This last stretch I gained 8# in a month compared to my 2-3# gain every month since my second trimester!

    Had someone ask me if it was twins when I told them my due date was August. I'm pretty sure my face told her how unimpressed I was. Keep it to yourself people! :-q

    Trust me, either way you cant friggin win with people. For me it's about not being big enough for everyone's 'satisfaction' or 'approval' and hearing the most insensitive things ever. My all time favorite was, "I hope your baby isn't malnourished and wont need extended care..."
    Always hold on to hope ❤

    I get this every day, "wow you're huge" "omg you won't make it to August he's too big" "how do you climb all those stairs to your apartment" (I live on a 3rd floor that is more like a 5th) it is all very annoying. And that's just from people I know!

    The strangers out in public are the best when they mumble but don't realize how loud they are .. "Omg look she's huge" "wow she's ready to pop" "she's definitely having twins" [-(

    From strangers I get comments about not "looking" 35wks. However, people who know me are more likely to comment on how huge I am at the moment. Cuts both ways, but the comments about being so small are usually tinged with seeming concern for DD health. I promise, she's exactly how big she ought to be, and the implication that I'm in any way doing something detrimental for my daughter really sucks.

    I dunno, the other day I had one lady tell me I didn't look big enough to be due in August. Then, a few hours later, another woman looked at me and said, "you sure you're not having twins?" I don't know what to believe.

    I'm a FTM and I never imagined complete strangers to be so vocal to a pregnant woman. I thought I was looking pretty good and healthy and people are saying oh you are ready to go any day now... yeah the me being nice and not replying back being a total biotch is coming to an end. Like why even say anything! People are just rude! :-w

    I get this A LOT! It's so annoying! Like mmm Idk, I feel like air conditioning has made my life relatively easy.....:| Think of all the women in the past, or in other (even hotter) countries with no air at all...

    I'm 34 wks and FTM. I am so very tired of the "OMG you have gotten huge". No crap! There is a human growing in there. These comments are coming from people who have children. Did you/your woman not grow AT ALL through the whole process?!? I can do without that and the "must be multiples" comments. Also, why do you feel the need to tell me I will be miserable in the summer heat. Let me just time travel and change my due date to a different season, thanks for the headsup on how summer time would be hell.
