I've decided to start a running list of sh*t people say to pregnant people (ahem..me). Totally offensive and completely unacceptable. Here goes!
"WOW! You sure have popped, huh?"
"When are you due again? July?" (...October)
"Any names picked out?" (Henry) "Ohh... that's getting to be pretty popular..."
Just a fun side note, all three of these were said by the same culprit.
Oh, coworkers!
I had forgotten how awful and insensitive people can be when you're pregnant. When I was in my final few months of pregnancy with Marleigh, I had a woman (again, a coworker. What gives?) tell me that I was going to have a "biiiiig baby!" Nice, lady.
What are some of the worst things people have said to you when you were pregnant? Leave a comment and let's chat!
Not that this validates what people say by any means but people will always comment on the popularity of names. In 1989, Samantha was the most popular girl name! Go figure ;)
ReplyDeleteKeep fighting the good fight. You'll have a squishy love in months time. I'm sure people will think I'm having a biiiiiig baby when the time comes. I'm not a skinny mini as is! You're doing good!
