It Never Ceases To Amaze Me...

The stupid things people say to me. Although now I'm able to laugh about it and ignore it better than I did a few weeks ago.

Earlier this week a guy at work commented on how I must be getting close... then he was shocked when I said I have three months left.

Same guy a day or two later told me I'm starting to waddle. Fortunately, another guy standing there said no she isn't.

Then today, a guy at work (different guy this time) said, "November? Really? You look like you're about to pop?"

And I wanted to "pop" him. On that one I just let it go realizing his wife is seven weeks pregnant and will likely have to deal with the same comments in a few months. Maybe then he'll have sympathy.

I know completely! I got so mad when my boss would tell me at least 3 times a week how huge I was getting and these idiots would tell me I was waddling (excuse me, I think I would have a vague idea that I was doing it if it were, in fact, true). People are so insensitive. I think men are worse, but actually it is far worse when a woman is because she either HAS a woman's body or she has gone through a pregnancy and she still comments on me like I am some circus freak. Gotta love the morons... Hang in there.

I think that first guy needs a lesson in manners. I'll be glad to waddle myself over there and teach him. Ha!

I went through it twice Chellie. It really is worth it! I promise. People can't help it that they're stupid sometimes. Especially men when it comes to pregnant women.
