Pregnancy comments killing me

Yall im freaking exhausted… please let me know if anyone else feels this way. Dont get me wrong i know people mean well but hearing only comments about how “big im getting” and how im “growing so much” and like catching people in my life looking at my stomach like 😳 Like i see my parents like several times a week and with out fail one of them looks at my stomach and says something along the lines of “woaaahhh caden look at how big you’ve gotten” “i feel like youre already so much bigger and i JUST saw you” like they say it with enthusiasm like they mean it in a positive manner cuz we’re all like happy baby boy is growing and we’re getting towards the end. but it literally just makes me wanna lose it. versus my lovely freaking husband who is CONSTANTLY not only saying he’s getting bigger but goes out of his way addressing me directly about how beautiful i am and how sexy i am and all the things. like just appreciate him so much more for not allowing myself to lose sight of the fact that i am still me yknow? like pregnancy as beautiful and complex as it is, can be so dehumanizing at times and no one talks about it! so this really is like a rant + appreciation post for my husband but like anyone else ?🥺

I feel the same way! I don’t like comments about my belly, but It’s inevitable 😅 I’m feeling huge!

Literally one of the reasons I hid my pregnancy until like a couple weeks ago is because the belly comments drive me insane, I hear "wow you're getting a belly huh?" Once a week or more and it's like no shit 🙄 I wish I could've kept it a secret until I gave birth 😂

Same! Every time I speak to my mom over FT since we don’t live in the same state, she just gasps and puts her hand over her mouth. She literally calls and says “let me see how big you’ve gotten.” I’ve spoken to her twice this week and she threatened to call today.

@Kaylee the joys of motherhood 🤨🤣🙄

@Annika 🤣🤣🤣

@Annika wiiiild that people feel they can comment like that

@Mari the audacity people have is crazy 😂

I don’t mind comments from the ones taking care of me & looking out for me. What gets me is complete strangers commenting. How do you know I’m small or big?! You’ve never seen me before! && then I had this lady just reach out and rub my tummy like we’ve been besties for life or something! I already don’t like ppl touching ME, but touching my tummy sent me overboard!!! 😅 Maybe it’s an overreaction, maybe an ick.. idk, but I don’t like it. lol

@Liz immediately veto to the random touching like wtaf 🤣 people are wild

I don’t like people commenting and evaluating the size of my body - pregnant or not! I’ve told my in laws this lol. I don’t respond to it when people make comments. I don’t like smile or give in or validate their comments.

Personally I’m annoyed by people saying I’m glowing because I’ve spent years putting on highlighter, bronzer and strategic eye shadow and no one told me I was glowing then. I’m matte now with slight blush at best. A few guys have told me my ass looks great from behind before realizing I was pregnant and that was the best commentary I’ve had to far lol

I feel the same way. I’ll be 34 weeks on Friday and I just feel exhausted and sick all of the time. I want to be thankful for the journey but it’s so hard

I hate the belly comments but I also hate the you look tired comments. Thank you for implying I look like crap 🤦🏼‍♀️

I hate the belly comments. Mine never gets big so I’m usually heavier when I’m not pregnant. Then all of a sudden I’m pregnant and I lose so much weight because I have severe nausea and vomiting. And everyone is like u don’t even look pregnant. And expect me not to have body pains. Im like oh really “BECAUSE I SURE FEEL PREGNANT “!!! So annoying

I usually dgaf about people making comments about my body but good lord… if I hear this older lady ask me one more time or tell me that I’m about to pop 😑 I’m 37 weeks FTM so NO lady… I am not. Could it happen YES but it also MIGHT NOT and I may go over 40 weeks so bug off lady. She’s also made comments about how many am I carrying… 🙄 one lady ONE.
