Annoying questions

What's the most annoying questions you've gotten through out your pregnancy? My all time top ones have definitely been "where's the baby? Oh wow Your still pregnant *shock face*? Wow your big , are you having twins? Like seriously!! Obviously if I am not holding a baby in my arms and I'm still looking like a very pregnant woman you would think that would say it all right? And the big belly comments just ayyy lol smh

Maybe its just me but I dont like it when people, especially my family will say, "whats up prego"? Or call me preggers, I just dont care for it. Or they'll say whats up fat girl? I mean come on, thats hurtful, pregnant or not. My grandpa will say all the time, wow you're really starting to pouch out there arent you? Well duh, Im pregnant, thats what happens. Sigh, do my feelings not matter anymore. People have a problem with not thinking about something before they say it. Ugh!! Sorry guess I just went on a bit of a rant there lol.

Ive gotten to the point that I don't even like telling ppl how far along I am because I'm not very big... I always get,
" You sure you pregnant?! You're not very big Are you tipping the doctor?". I also love how ppl like to tell me how to eat... That makes me so angry... I don't eat much but my appetite has picked up so I have to nibble all day or have food ready to eat because I get hungrt at weird times...

I one customer always asks "so any weird cravings? " every dang time he comes in its like wow the answer was no yesterday it's still the same or get sleep while you can hahaha um yeah if I wanted to sleep I wouldn't have gotten pregnant and it's not like you can stock up on extra sleep. Oh also one mom told me to let the nurses take care of my baby while I'm in the hospital because that's the last rest I'll get. I'm like wow yes let's become a mom and then hand my child over to a stranger to take care of. Just makes me want to smack people.

I get asked on a daily basis by several different coworkers. ."how ya feeling mama?" "Are you sure you're still pregnant? You really can't tell." Yes,  I'm small. I've only gained 4-5lbs from my prepregnancy weight, and I'm 17w2d. The work uniform shirt they gave me is huge on me because they only order in men's sizes and I still look like I'm swimming in a small. I'm 5'8" and just reached the 125 lb mark. I've had coworkers also ask me "are you going to keep it?" Seriously!?! Yes, I got pregnant while using contraceptives, and this wasnt a 'planned pregnancy' that doesn't automatically mean that I don't care about or want this child any less. Then the unwanted comments and "advice" I get from them...it's ridiculous!! If I believed everything I read and heard I shouldn't do while pregnant, I might as well just lock myself in a plastic bubble!

I hate when ppl ask me when I am due.
I went with multiple hubby to his dr. Appt. And his dr. was like your about to have your baby any day now?  I said no, I'm not due til sept 20th. He said o really? Are u sure ur dr. Is calculating right?  Cuz u look like u can go any min.

Then ppl at work are like are u sure u do not have triplets?  Maybe u need a second opinion....

Like  ya i know I'm HUGE!

I'm on my third pregnancy and I had a lady ask me, "is it from the same father as your other two kids?" I just had to laugh and say, yes they are all from my husband. Some people have no manners.

I was livid . I was like weve been a couple for almost 5 years now and im pregnant thank you very much and we have been trying for this baby for 3 years and we have known each other for years !! I was soo offended . My fiances face was all red and he just stayed quiet and starred out the window to prevent himself form going off .

I had a customer one time come in and criticize me with a 10 minute lecture on how I shouldn't have gotten pregnant when I know my job doesn't offer insurance or maternity leave.  And then blew my mind when she turned around and said "it's people like you that take advantage of the state just because you're irresponsible."

Yeah I flipped out. I stated I work a 40-48 hr/wk job, pay taxes, take care od my own bills and so what I'm on state aid. I would have private insurance had they not denied me because I don't make enough.

Or the famous, "I can't wait to see you when you're huge! Waddling around" really? Like we don't have esteem issues somedays... ugh

I posted pics of my ultrasound from 17 weeks on fb and this girl messaged me and asked if all babies were born full grown cuz she thought they were but maybe they arent or maybe everyones different . I was like what are you talking about and she was like your baby looks developed already are you 9 months already you were just like 12 weeks . I was like no im 17 weeks , and my baby has fingers toes and feet and legs and arms and what not but hes definitely still developing he has to grow alot more and conintue forming and that babies start develiping very early. I told her she should do some research on babies because just a few days earlier she wrote me saying shes gonna try for a baby too . I was very surprised at that msg . . .

@Natjayne I know right! The only thing that's not so bad that I take offense to is people telling me "I look good to say I've dropped 4 out" only reason is because I'm 5'8 and 130 prepreggers and I want to keep my baby weight so bad!!!! Especially b(•)(•)bies!!!  I feel like a teenage boy preworkout weight. All my sisters are thick! I always felt like they were the performers n I was their mic; being slim n all. But hopefully my 5th baby and about to b 31, I will achieve thickness (my hubs likes it though but when we're intimate and he tries to grab the boobs n it's like he's swiping his hand across a damn iPad.... and goes for the 2nd attempt #epicfail )
