So it isn't nice bc I'm not... I've gained some weight, like ten lbs prolly haven't weighed myself these paast 3 months and I gqin weight in my belly area first and I'm prob 120 now and this week 3 times I've had the comment are you pg or you look pg... ***!!!! Its frustrating
So very tmi!!!!!!!
I don't plan on hearing this anymore....HAD bowel issues for 2 or 3 weeks and now my tummy doesn't have that "baby bump" look anymore, hopefully I will have it again soon and is bc it is a baby!!!! I was wondering how my belly had put on that much centralized weight, I've been stressed at work so didn't even think of this issue... all better now!

People need to learn to keep their mouths shut. Have they never been told unless you actually see a baby coming out of a woman do not ask if she is pregnant!

I am really sorry and can relate. After I quit smoking, I gained 20lbs and most of it went to my belly, thighs and face. I look 20+ weeks pregnant! It is really frustrating and feels like a stab of pain because that is all you really want IS to be pregnant. ((Hugs)) I am sorry.

They are obviously stupid. No person with any sense would say something like that even if they thought it.
My reply would be, "No. I'm just fat. Thanks for being a d0uchebag. Shall I start pointing out some of your flaws now?"
I think I must give of this vibe, because no one ever says this kind of stuff to me. Or tried to touch me when I was pregnant. Or give me advice about my children.
See my signature regarding stupid people. They are everywhere. Like zombies, only harder to spot.

"I'm actually not pregnant, but my doctor and I are working to help me get back down to my desired weight. I could refer you to her if you want though, she might be able to help you with your baldness / halitosis / acne / etc.!"
I'm sorry, that would be frustrating for any woman, but especially one who wants so badly to actually be pregnant.

The same thing happened to me last week - 5 days after my m/c. Awesome. I'm probably 5lbs over weight so nothing crazy. I started bawling and the woman felt terrible. But I feel for you. I can't believe people say things like that.

People need to learn to mind their own business. I am sorry you had to go through that.

Courtney you remind me so much of myself. Lol.
I don't have a filter so I tend to say exactly what is on my mind as soon as it comes to my mind. Bad part is that I am Cajun, and they tend not to hold back. My father and sister are much worse than I am though. I would have probably made a very rude and direct comment back. That is just me though.
