Someone please calm me down.....

I found out from a co-worker that another one of my co-workers was talking about me behind my back. She was saying how I should eat all healthy for the baby and quit eating pizza all day. All day...is she with me when I get home to see what I eat for dinner!!!

I was fuming....but I promised the person who told me that I wouldn't say anything or else I would seriously curse this person out. They should just mind their own freaking business. I do eat healthy. Just because I crave pizza for lunch and I have it doesn't mean that I am not eating healthy for the baby. I get all these tests done and my weight is fine, blood pressure is fine...so what's the problem??

I am just so pizzed...and she is right in front of me and I have to pretend everything is okay while she is talking about me behind my back.

Why is it that as soon as you become pregnant, please feel they have the right to comment/criticize,etc.

Ugh, that is so messed up. She really needs to mind her own business. My doctor told me that I should try to eat healthy, but if I can't eat healthy (because you are sick or something) that is okay too, you just need to get food inside you. Pizza isn't even THAT bad!!!

Thanks!
and that's another thing.....carbs help me with my MS. So I give in and eat a bagel or slice of pizza and I do feel better after. I also know to eat my veggies, and other healthy stuff.

I ate everything with both children and both are doing fine. Does she even have children to tell you what is adequate nutrition during a pregnancy? I probably couldn't hold back. Since you have to sit behind her, just throw sh!t in her hair...LOLChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Honestly you can't let what other people bother you. People say all kinds of things when someone is pregnant. You will hear a lot worse along the way I'm sure.

Don't let anyone get to you. I was eating toasted and buttered bagel one day and this "health nut" who is quite thick I must say, told me you could NEVER catch her dead eating a bagel, so many useless calories and unnecessary carbs. I was livid, but I let it go.. no point in wasting my energy on idiots who can't keep their lids closed.

Your co-worker wouldn't want to see what I ate everyday with both pregnanciesChat Icon

You should walk by her shoving an entire slice into your mouth going MMMMMMMM.

Everyone should mind their own business!

You're far more patient than me. The way my hormones are, I would have totally confronted her and told her to mind her own business.

Sorry you have to deal with that crap! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

As soon as someone's pregnant, everyone around them becomes an expert on pregnancy. I'm sorry you're dealing with this but know you're not alone! I'm sure we've all heard or will hear dumb comments/advice from the people we interact with. Chat Icon

Re: Someone please calm me down.....

Thanks ladies..I knew I could count on you!

I guess what's frustrating...is that I have to work with her..she is literally right next to me now and I have to pretend we are okay. She acts all nice to me...and I have to put a smile on my face.

She should have minded her own business but I also think the "friend" co-worker is a trouble maker. I wouldn't have told you b/c it just is stupid and doesn't matter- plus who wants to upset a pregnant lady you know?

Re: Someone please calm me down.....

if i were you i'd make it even MORE apparent your "bad" eating habits. if she sits right next to you, talk about all the stuff you eat and make it so extreme you'll piss her off...who is she to tell anyone what you should and shouldn't eat? go ahead and eat your pretty little heart out girl Chat Icon more power to ya!

Re: Someone please calm me down.....

With my 1st pg I was soooo nauseous and the only thing that made me feel better was mcdonalds fries. I think I had them almost every day for lunch for about a month. I ate other healthy things throughout the day but around lunchtime my nausea was soooo bad.

I'm lucky I didn't work with your coworker. Chat Icon

Re: Someone please calm me down.....

I had to put my co worker in her place months ago!
She has a daughter who went totally organic for her pregnancy...more power to her but that doesnt mean I have to do it, too.
She got out of hand with her "mothering" that I had to remind her I would eat what I when I want and I have a mom already thank you!

THEN she had the nerve to comment about my driving when hers is no better so I baited her one day...started talking aobut driving so she could make her comment...then I let her have it in a nice way.Chat Icon

She still talks to me but she has learned to butt out of my life a little. Gosh I love my prego hormones!
