This is very rude! What makes it worse is that you need to be professional with him and can't really tell him off. Did you tell him you just had a baby?

How did you respond to that S.O.B?
How stupid/ignorant can someone be?

Aw Debbie ...I would have punched him. Is he overweight? You could have used the line from SATC "I just had a baby. What is your excuse?" Chat Icon

I would chalk it up to a cultural thing.

You're hot. You know you're hot. Maybe tell him to stop focusing on your body & start working.

Re: Pregnancy Weight Gain - Rude Comment

Please, don't be upset-- I am pretty sure that in that culture to say that a woman got fatter is a compliment! They don't like skinny, they like their woman with some meat on her bones!

Wow, how extremely rude! Bad enough he made any mention of your figure, but can you at least put it a little nicer than saying you got fatter???

What an idiot!!!! You are gorgeous and only had a baby a few months ago!

Re: Pregnancy Weight Gain - Rude Comment

It is terrible!!! I had a few doozies of my own.

Not to stick up for anyone, but maybe it's a cultural thing. I was at the library with Ava a few weeks ago and we ran into a Mom from daycare who happens to be from Turkey. When I told her I was pg, she said "I can really see it, your face is much heavier."Chat Icon Chat Icon

My Mother-in-law is from another country as well, and she says a lot of things that I would never say. My Mother says- maybe it's sort of a compliment.Chat Icon Chat Icon

I don't think that other culture are as sensitive to weight as we Americans are.

Still sux when people make comments.

Aww, I'm sorry. It ***** to hear but I'm pretty sure he meant it as a compliment. If anything, to him you look better now than when he saw you last time. Don't feel bad.

Re: Pregnancy Weight Gain - Rude Comment

That would really upset me.

I am 5 lbs above my pre pregnancy weight, and my grandmother informed me in Florida that I;m not at the weight I want to be yet.

Thanks Gma Chat Icon It depressed me for the rest of the trip....

yeah... one of my patients the other day was like, "Dr. S, looks like you still have a ways to go with the weight... but don't worry, it's ok".

would you EVER in a MILLION YEARS say that to anyone???

i almost fell out of my chair. i was to shocked to even say anything back.
