It's insanely annoying when you're pregnant and everyone feels entitled to make obnoxious comments about your size. One week it's "Oh my God! You're so HUGE! When I was at that stage you could see nothing. NOTHING!" The next week someone says, "Are you sure you're pregnant? You're so tiny! Where is the baby?" Then of course there is the commonplace and entirely uninspired "Are you sure you're not having TWINS?!" Oldest pregnant lady jab in the book.
The fact is that I'm twenty weeks, so half way through this pregnancy, and I feel great. I'm getting lots of exercise and I've only gained 12 pounds. The huge comments are not only rude, they're incorrect. I love having dad-to-be to go home to each afternoon. His take on it? According to him they're just jealous because I look more wonderful everyday. Love that guy!
I am sure it is super annoying when people say you are huge, but as someone who is not pregnant...they mean it as a compliment. They are just noticing your baby bump getting bigger and are excited for you. I have to remember not to tell any pregnant women that they are Huge, cause I am pretty sure I have done that :)
