What are some of the weirdest comments/questions you have been asked about your pregnancy?

Mine is:

"oh you are pregnant!! Congrats... Do you plan to cook and eat your placenta?"

"Was this pregnancy planned?"

I should have responded with something along the lines of "No, actually my surrogate was supposed to be carrying but I did a last ditch IVF cycle after she didn't work out" Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Weird questions/comments

This time I haven't gotten any comments, yet, probably b/c I'm just starting to look unquestionably pregnant.

Last time around several co-workers asked me if it was planned. Really? Who asks that?

Re: Weird questions/comments

"Are you pregnant / Is that a baby bump I see?" - I swear I'm saying "NO... I just gained weight" to the next person who asks this.

"Was this pregnancy planned?"


"At least you can have as much sex as you want and not worry about getting pregnant." - just got this one today.

" are you happy about this?"

That was at my Dr. Office when we found out we were pregnant! My response... " well considering I spoke to my Dr. About coming of the pill and starting prenatal vitamins I'd say we are happy because we were planning! "

Re: Weird questions/comments

One client asked if I was happy.

Another asked me how much weight I had gained and if I was going to breast feed.

The questions coming from family, close friends might not have made me Chat Icon but from clients...just weird.

my boss's response when I told him I was pregnant: "Why?"

A young guy who works in my office offered me gum: "Oh wait can you have gum?"

I really hate the "was this planned?" or "are you happy about this?" comments. Also it drives me crazy when people will tell me that they wish it is a certain gender. That has gotten on my nerves so much lately. Chat Icon

"Is there a... uhh... FATHER in the picture?"

YES, there is, it's called my HUSBAND OF SIX YEARS Chat Icon

I know I look young without make-up on but when I went to Quest just to get blood drawn for routine testing during my first trimester I didn't expect to be questioned like Teen Mom Chat Icon

The gender comments are so annoying. I have a DD and my mother hopes i have a boy so then i'll be done having kids. Idk if I am done but she swears ill be done if I have one of each. She keeps talking to me belly and calling the baby a boy and telling my DD she has a brother....Its getting annoying.
