I heard tons of things that got me rolling my eyes,
"Was it planned?" "You are married aren't you?"
"Did you know how much it will hurt?"
"I guess you don't care about your figure!" This was when I was 8 months pregnant, and I had only gained about 16 pounds, I also didn't look like I was much morethan 6 or 7 months along so it was not only rude but totatlly hurtful due to the fact that I actaully struggled to put that wieght on.
By my own family
"I didn't htink you wanted another one."
"IDidn't think you like kids."
"Can you hande it?"
Come on, it's like they don't even bother to think before they speak.
At walmart just days before I delivered a lady actaully gave me a rude stare and said, well I think you're ready to pop, I better hurry up and get you out of my line.
Talk about rude...and stupid..
Oh there was the nicest old lady that had the nerve to tell me about birth control pills and how younger people today don't bother to be careful. She didnt' seem to nice after that anymore.
Some people.. jeeze..

No one said a lot to me while I was pregnant...
But, when my daughter was about a month old, I was breastfeeding her at a family dinner and my aunt walked by and shook her head saying to me "That poor kid. You know, you are STARVING that baby"..
It was ALL I could do to politely tell her that it was MY child, times had CHANGED since she had had a baby, and that comments like THAT she could keep to herself.
Then... I cried in the bathroom for a few minutes.. LOL, gotta love those after baby hormones. But I stood my ground on what I thought was best, and it was a really good feeling..

When I was pregnant with my third (last) a woman told me that she read having 3 is the same amount of work as 6. The thought made it kind of hard to adjust.
But it is true (sometimes I babysit 3-4 other kids)

My mother in law, she has become like my enemie since I married my hubby & got pregnant, first of all she didn't believe I was pregnant because I wouldn't show for 3 months & because she wouldn't see me throw up, so she bought me a pregnancy test & made me take it, after I did all that she started saying it wasn't her son's kid. She's done and said a lot of things to me & ever since I had my baby she dies for me to leave her the baby so she could take care of him, but I don't & never will, first of all she dont even take care of her 3 daughters, she doesn't do **** in her house & has her daughters do the cleaning, mostly the older one, but they still live like PIGS, there's trash all over the house, she doesn't even feed her daughters right, what she feeds them is usually allways fast food so they are fat, the middle one looks like she's pregnant & she's going the same way as the older one cause she's big, & the little one is going the same way as the middle one, in the morning they eat cereal so they have all kinds of different cereals you could think of cause the mother is too damn lazy to get up, so she wakes up in the afternoon. Sorry I told you all of this, but I had to take it out, I'm so tire of her, she's always causing problems between my husband & me. Well now you know that the person that has said the most stupid things to me is my mother in law, she had asked me to give her my baby & I just hate it when she asks me that.

Well one of the things I got tired of hearing this pregnancy was "there has to be 2 in there, you are too big to only be carrying 1 baby" even though I had already had 4 ultrasounds showing one baby boy.

I was going to a catholic college when I was pregnant with my son, and I had this passing out problem I would get when I sat down too long, so the nun, (I guess had never seen a pregnant person before) asked me if I was diabetic that's why I was dizzy!! I said "No, I'm pregnant"...7months along, by the way...she says "Oh!!" dumb nun

I was out with a friend and I was almost at the end of my pregnancy. We had gotten a DQ Blizzard (of course I had put on a little pregnancy weight on top of having about 40 pounds to lose) and this guy said, "Look at you, you don't need that!" When he said it, it was a little mumbled and my friend pretended like she didn't hear it, but it made me feel like a hideous, worthless cow. Even after losing weight that comment still bothers me.

HAHAHA this one was hysterical, when my fiance and I got our own place WHILE I WAS PREGNANT about 8 months along to be exact his grandmother came over and was looking at the place and when she got to our bedroom she seen the king sized bed and then looked at me and said " don't you think you two should have separate beds "?? I looked at her and then placed my hand on my belly and said " it is a little late for that don't you think"??? lol I thought it was hysterical.
This one thing would drive me nuts, my son was a big baby and I barely showed until my 8th month where I got huge it looked like I swallowed a watermelon and random strangers would come up to me and be like " are you having twins" boy did that made me feel super nice.

Someone asked me how far along I was, I told her 5 months and she let me know that's how far along her sister was when she lost her baby. Real Neat
I ended up having a micro-preemie who was in the hospital for 82 days before she could come home and someone said to me "at least you didn't get as fat."
I would have gained a million pounds if would have meant I could have carried my baby full term and she wouldn't have had to struggle like she did.
