Yet another post about....

....people not keeping their stupid mouth's shut! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

This happened on Friday and I haven't been on all weekend and I wasn't going to post but I can't stop fuming about this lady.

I was getting a mani/pedi and this woman looked at my feet and was like "wow, your feet are really swollen." I was like "I know, but they feel OK, they don't hurt." Then she proceeds to tell me what not to eat, to put my feet up, all that stuff that I hear from everyone, which is annoying, but fine, whatever.

Then after she asks me how far along I am, I tell her 20 weeks and she says "Wooowwwww, my SIL was just as swollen as you at 20 weeks and she ended up with Toxemia and they took the baby when she was 24 weeks." Then she keeps telling me to make sure my Dr. takes my blood pressure. Yeah, I go to an OB who doesn't take blood pressure Chat Icon

W T F...why are you telling me this? First of all, I knwo I don't have Toxemia because nothing else is swollen, not my fingers or my face...just my feet and my legs. I actually have low blood pressure, not high and my friend got it in her 9th month so I know exactly what it looks like. I don't have it. FURTHERMORE, mind your own GD business! Who are you, going around diagnosing people that you never even met!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

OK, vent over.

Re: Yet another post about....

Tell me what pregnant woman doesn't have some level of swollen-ness (is that a word?) in the summer time??? There was no need for her to speak that way to you and be an alarmist. Shoot I get swollen on hot days and I am not even pregnant. Ignore the ignorant! I am so sorry!

Isn't it so funny how people are just so different, I loved all the attention I got when I was pregnant and just joined in the fun...stupid comments and all! My favorite was when a stranger made a stupid comment, I would just agree with them and laugh! It was so much fun!

Re: Yet another post about....

people are so stupid. Let me tell you - at the end of my pregnancy last summer people had me so nervous of that. Meanwhile it had nothing to do with the heat! Chat Icon

People should really mind their business!
