Some good responses for rude comments

I just found this BabyCenter article and it has some good ways to respond to some of the rude comments people seem to think it's ok to make to pregnant women. (I've been seeing several posts about the comments some of us LIF ladies have been getting, so I thought it might be helpful) Some of them I could never imagine myself saying or doing, but some are actually helpful.

How to handle rude comments

My favorites are telling the baby, "she didn't really meant that," and "are you going to ask what position we used?" in response to the question about fertility treatments!

Some of those are great - thanks for sharing! I, unfortunately, am not quick so if someone surprises me with a rude question they usually just get a blank stare...I hope they get the point, though.

Re: Some good responses for rude comments

Ive been asked the twins question numerous times by DH's step dad... I can't tell you how much I've wanted to punch him in the face. Theres a negative history there with him so it makes it 10x worse. I'm never quick enough to think of something witty but I love these responses!!!!
