Wow...

So as if today wasn't a stressful day for me with my son going to school for the first time...I had to get a comment about my belly.

I'm in Waldbaums waiting for my cold cuts and this old man walks over to me. He was smiling and giggling like a school girl.

He leans of the counter and says, I HAVE to ask you...when are you due?
Me: October 23rd
Old man: Wow, cause you're huge!
Me: And you're completely insensitive!
Old man: Are you having twins?
Me: Um, no...do you have anything else to say because you know all the right things to say to a pregnant woman so far.


Then he walks away giggling again.

A man next to me shook his head and said you look wonderful, don't listen to him. You should have told him you weren't pregnant.

What a day...

I really think sometimes people who make these comments think "huge" is a compliment. It's not (except in rare instances Chat Icon but never to a preggo!!!)

Based on your pics you look fabulous pregnant!!!

Hope your little man did well today! Chat Icon

Re: Wow...

eh it's fine... Just brush him off.

can you imagine what it's like to be a person who sticks his foot in his mouth so badly on a regular basis? It's like he can barely function in society.

Wonder why he was giggling, though Chat Icon ya know, EVERYONE'S mom once looked like this Chat Icon

oh, and if he had a beer belly I would have said my favorite pre-canned line:

'so when are YOU due?'
