Rudest and Sweetest Things People Have Said to You

Thought this could be entertaining... Since many people seem to be missing that filter, I know many of us have had rude things - but also sweet things - said to us in PG.

Rudest - You're so big, are you sure you're not having twins?

Sweetest - You just look so fantastic!

Re: Rudest and Sweetest Things People Have Said to You

Hmmm Rudest, there have been a lot:

It's wrong to put a child in daycare before a year.
You have to find a way to not go back to work.
If you can't live off of one income you shouldn't have a child.
Are you sure you should eat that cookie, doesn't the Dr. check your sugar levels? (seriously????)
- these all came from the two secretaries at my office, maybe it's because they are both in their late 50s, but one day I ended up crying and just left the office for the day, now I say nothing to them about the PG or our plans for the future, they can both bite my a$$Chat Icon

Sweetest:
It was more of an action than words, but the other night I was boiling and laying in bed sprawled out naked totally uncomfortable, so DH got up opened the window and got me a fan (in the middle of the night!) as I layed there happily cooling down, he had to bundle up under 4 blankets to stay warm. He's such a good manChat Icon

Re: Rudest and Sweetest Things People Have Said to You

I've gotten a few rude ones, my regular waxer talking to my AZZ as I'm bending over to get $$ to pay her " Yah you're definitely having a girl, you got wider"

The sweetest, my DH when I complain that I'm a beached whale he said stop it, you're not, and as crazy as this sounds, since I started showing later, when I was like around 6 mos, he was like you know, you really don't look pregnant, just really bloated....it was a weird sweet thing to say Chat Icon

Re: Rudest and Sweetest Things People Have Said to You

Rudest - well no one has really been rude, but some teenage girls said on the subway yesterday - YO SHE ABOUT TO DROP GIVE HER A SEAT.
I thought it was pretty funny, and they INSISTED I take a seat - which none of the adults did.

Sweetest - A lot of people have been telling me pregnancy really agrees with me and I look great.

No rude comments yet but I'm only 8 1/2 weeks.

I have been told I'm glowing which I thought was very nice.

Let's see...

Rudest: Turn around, let me see you from the back...yup, you're having a boy b/c you are getting REALLY wide.

(PS..I'm 5 months and still in my pre pregnancy pants..so how wide could I be?)

Sweetest: You are the cutest pregnant lady I've ever seen. Your husband is so lucky.

This is crazy!! So what your saying is my husband should be making at least 120k or over to live on one salary. Sure people make this, but I don't know many people at my age.

Yeah, this is the day I ended up just leaving the office (actually the 1st three comments all came in one morning because I was researching daycare), I called my sister to vent and was crying so hard she thought something had happened to the baby.

It would be wonderful if we could live off of DHs salary and if I didn't have $1k/mo student loan payment we might be able to. Neither of the secretaries went to college, so they had no student debt, and both stayed at home with their kids, so I think they just lived a different life and can't see any other way.

Rudest: The only thing I can think of is when I tell people I'm putting my child in daycare they always make comments like "why isn't your mother going
to watch the baby"!!

Sweetest: I get nice comments all the time. The nicest is "I've never seen a pregnant girl look as good as you"

Re: Rudest and Sweetest Things People Have Said to You

So many rude comments almost all about how "HUGE" I am.
My favorite was the woman who couldn't believe that my belly was so huge but my boobs hadn't grown. Now mind you I'm in the HR department of a law firm. How is that appropriate??
I've gotten a lot of "are you sure it's not twins" or "you're never making your due date" so irritating

Sweet: there is one woman who keeps telling me how much pregancy agrees with me. I could just kiss her!

Re: Rudest and Sweetest Things People Have Said to You

Sweet: You are glowing, and my dh tells me I'm beautiful every day.

Rudest: You've never looked better. I think someone meant this as a compliment, but how else should i take it. does that mean i was ugly before hand?

You look good with some meat on you: oh so did i look like crap before??
I think this person said it to make me feel better about gaining weight, but STILL!
