Some people......

Are so rude! Someone at work just congratulated me (I'm not out at work) and I asked "for what?" And she made a bump in front of her stomach and pointed at me. I just shook my head. I know I'm not thin, but I didn't think I looked pregnant! I'm still in my regular sized clothes and had lost 7lbs the first several weeks. (I'm 11 weeks). People are so stupid!

And what makes me annoyed is- you shouldn't say something unless you know for sure!

Seriously...that's like manners 101. People are so clueless.

What did you say to them?

Re: Some people......

sorry it only gets worse- people are truly jerks!

I have been called a blimp this week (sil) and asked if I was having triplets (boss). I find an obnoxious comment back usually stops repeat offenders!

I just kinda shook my head no and walked away with my class. (Yes this was all said in front of my students). I didn't want to acknowledge it because I'm not ready for it to be spoken about at work yet!

Would have pointed to my eyes and say "You need to get them checked" or "I'm not sure what you mean, I didn't think my weight was up for discussion but thanks for pointing it out"

Re: Some people......

OMG people are terrible! I would have made the most horrified face and rushed off like I was crying, just to mess with her.

For the record, unless someone acknowledges to me that they are pregnant I could never imagine saying anything. What is wrong with people??

I'm so sorry people are being rude. It will only get worse unfortunately and people who are close to you will come out with some rude comments. My MIL said to me on Sunday "you're getting bigger every time I see you". The sad part is...I saw her on Saturday and when I said that she said "yeah and you look bigger today".
