What no pregnant woman wants to hear: Snippets, lately
Standing at the front door, leaving to go get milk, wearing cute platform sandals.
“Wow, you’re hhhhh…uge and so tall in those!”
“Gee, thanks. I was hoping you were going to say ‘hot.’”
“Oh, I mean hot, too. Yeah, hot.”
“Nice try, jackass.”

“Are you controlling your weight this time?”

“You’re really filling out now, aren’tcha?”

Eating lunch yesterday, giggling at Lucy.
“Gawd, it’s ridiculous when I’m this pregnant and laugh really hard. My boobs and belly bounce up and down in tandem.”
“You’re like Santa!”
___
“You need the exercise.”
___
“You have how much longer to go?!”

Receiving a hug from behind, with an affectionate squeeze of my hips.
“Nice baby bumpers you’re growin’ here!”

Of what…the culprits? Their mug shots?
Wow, I gained 55 lbs with Brady (yikes! I know that is a HUGE amount). I can only imagine the comments I will get the 2nd time around!
C.
Don’t forget are you sure there is just one in there????
Wow you carry that extra weight really well.
I am due next week with my second, and i keep getting the comment ‘you don’t look nearly as big as you did the last time’ WOW I must have been HUGE when I was pregnant with my first son. LOL
I’m surprised Eric doesn’t get smacked more often.
At least you don’t breakdown into tears anytime someone gives you a sideways glance. I went between that and nearly ripping someone’s head off in a heartbeat. Don’tcha just love hormones!
Pics of your belly, of course. Dunno when I’ll see you next .. by then you might be waddling quite a bit.
I can’t get smacked from 500 km away!!
You are entitled to gain when you are pregnant…..the problem comes when you gain weight and your NOT pregnant….usually sometime after the second pregnancy…..sorry bout that!!
Audrey…..you are so right!!! What is with the weight gain AFTER the second baby??? More important how do you get rid of it?????
I wish I had a gaining weight excuse… my excuse is
‘a-penis’…a.k.a. ha-ppi-ness!
I feel for you Carly, I’m due early October and I’ve been asked twice if I am having twins (somewhat jokingly) after pulling myself out of the week-long depression those comments brought on, I had a lovely “gentleman” ask me: “You’re not having triplets are you? haha” So I looked him in the eye and said “Yes I am!” well the shock on his face made it worth it…
How to get rid of the #2 baby leftovers. Personal Trainer. I had one who came to my house so I didn’t have to worry about who’s watching the kids, I did it after they went to bed.
1 hour twice a week, did wonders. I’m now working on getting rid of the rest of baby #1
