Unnecessary comments

Unnecessary comments

While congratulating us on my pregnancy, a male friend of our family commented to me that "I'm not thin as it is so you wouldn't have a bump just yet" and my butt and boobs will get "even bigger" as time progresses. Where did that come from? All I was saying was how good I feel at 15 weeks and my regular clothes still fit me. I'm not thin but I am athletic, tall, and curvy. I responded by changing my demeanor & giving a cold stare but he got the hint. What would you have done?

I think I probably would have been caught off guard that someone other than my DH commented on my body/boobs and butt size lol
I probably would have said something like "didn't know you were the pregnancy body expert" in a "joking" voice lol

WOW!!! I probably would've punched him in the stomach...
And, I'm going to say it yet again - why do people think they can say WHATEVER they want to pregnant ladies??!!

OMG...how about when your FIL tells you that your butt is going to get bigger? AWKWARD and so inappropriate.

I would want to ignore nasty comments, but I might have to say something back to them...like calling the person an @sshole or a dickk.

I probably would have said something sarcastic like "wow! Tell me what you really think."
