What's the most annoying/rude thing someone has said to you while pregnant?

I hate when people say "Wow you are really showing now" or "You look ready to pop"

Gee thanks, I love hearing that I look huge.

Someone told me "you're going to have a big baby". When I was like 3 months someone asked me if I was sure I wasn't having twins bc I look huge. I'm 34 weeks now and people keep assuming I'm having a boy and when I tell them I am having a girl, they question me, and say "your belly looks like you're carrying a boy".  Arghhh!!

It annoys me when people I know see me after a few days and say "boy, has she grown or what?"
"Well yea of course she's grown, why don't you just tell me I'm obviously bigger than the last time you saw me"

I've been lucky so far and almost done. Fingers crossed. People can be so rude and ignorant. Especially strangers. How do they know how big you were prior and it wouldn't really be safe if you weren't getting any bigger. Especially the twin comment. Who does that. Lol.

I haven't got alot of rude comments about the pregnancy yet but I'm sure they're coming. This is my 1st pregnancy but I adopted 5 kids outta foster care. I've had perfect strangers say things like "wow you've been busy" or "you do know what causes that right?".... it bothered me at first and I was tempted to put people in their place.... not worth it though. With all these dang hormones though I may feel differently lol

I overheard a customer at my work say to her friend "You know, you can always tell when a girl was fat before she got pregnant & its sad because you know her kid is going to be heavy too!"

I teach at a high school and these classes are things like human life span development (including prenatal) and parenting classes, etc. last time I was pregnant, one of my students said "you know, when we talk about these things in class we're all just imagining you having sex." and the three or four students in hearing range agreed....um...super awkward! what do you even say to that? I'm a smart a** at heart and said "joke's on you, it was an immaculate conception!" I start school again tomorrow and am a little worried about what I might hear this time...

Hahaha! Some people... my favorite one has to be "that ***** she threw her life away". Or the famous "she's so young I can't believe her parents let that happen" umm I'm 22 and graduated high school and have held jobs and lived on my own. I've done and gone thru more than they know and could handle. People should keep their mouths shut

Mine is also the "wow your so big already" so when They ask how far I jz automatically say I know my belly is big. When I had nmbr 3 I was at the Dr with my older 2 and the nurse goes "your kids are older why did u do that" then looked down at her carseat. I was like wow f u B. Left and found a new Dr office. :) which I'm glad I did. I love r new dr.
