At least they're not telling you you're fat lol. "You're huge! Sure it's not twins?" Anyway, try to brush it off.  And say "I'm measuring right on!" Or "thanks, I do look good huh?" :) it gets old fast when everyone has to comment about another's pregnancy.

Just come back with...I know, I'm lucky I carry small. Count your blessings here...I carried small...perfectly healthy babies, it's not a bad thing. So if they want to make a comment like that...just let them know your happy to be carrying small

It's actually opposite for me I'm sick of hearing people say I'm huge. I'm 34 weeks and I get asked when I'm due and when I say the end of December they act as if I'm ginormous and ask of I'm sure it's only one. Like geez thanks for calling a pregnant women fat. Ugh

Yes im 33 weeks ftm...People just can't believe im at the end. They say aww your just now starting to show. Luckily i don't really care for people at the moment so the comments are blown off. The constant reminder of not looking like  a whale is  there though
