RUDE PEOPLE!
I was exactly the same! I was huge, 5ft 3 tall and 5ft 3 round! I had a few people make bad comments but most of them were really positive and supportive! One member of staff at school accused me of constantly eating. I only ever saw him at break and lunchtime which is obviously the only time to eat when you teach!!!
I lost all but 7lb giving birth so I wouldn't worry too much!!! Just enjoy having a bump and being pregnant!

lol. xx
It realy upset, i gained 5st during pregnancy and found out why when riley was 3mths that i had an underactive thyroide and it was probably triggered early pregnancy and id gone all that time undiagniosed,it took nearly 2 years to get from 17st dead to the 14st 12lb which i have been at for just over a year now and just cant shift it.
Sorry to go on but i do think people easily missjudge us mums.
Marie i also find people rude when we are out with Hollie, many a time i have had the door slammed on her puschair, yet i struggle with her and hold the door for anyone behind me etc. And the amount of people that walk in front of her pran, or suddenly stop to have a conversation, don't even get me started on that.
I am breastfeeding Catalina at the moment and if the door goes I answer it regardless. It is my house and I will do what I want in it. So far I've had abashed postmen refuse to look me in the eye but no one has been rude or unhelpful.
How old was he when you found out he had aspergers.
Its funny when they say use your instint,and when you do they say we are just being silly.
My mum did somehing similar when my sister had her eldest the social refused to pay as she was only 16,my mum said they would leave the baby with them and go,social were so quick on it they got her money and a regular income,that was 10yrs ago now.
Hope his much better with his sleeping now.
How right funnymummy,ifthy dont like it eat somewhere else. as for smokers im an ex smoker,gave up when i found out i was preggers and never went back.Altho hubby is still a smoker he never did around riley when he was a babe,if he did he had a window open near him.
Its now when we are walking about anywhere that people walk past with a fag at a childs head height and dont even think to move it so im the one constantly having to move riley out of the way to stop him from getting burnt.
We were in the school playground recently and some bloke was standing there smoking.Silly thing was all the Mum's just stood there,none of us knew what to say.It's not difficult to remember where you are and respect the children.
i hated being touched, took me ages to feel relaxed with andrew touching the bump!!
And as for smoking do NOT get me started we have a 1hr rule, we are very much non smokers and have no tollerance for it as jack had severe breathing difficulties and is slowly outgrowing astma, so people who smoke musnt pick up the children for 1hr after smoking and then im not embarassed to ask they remove jacket or whatever they wore whilst smoking! there is only 4people i know and they are very tollerant of my bossiness.
jack and my cousin have also been burnt by cigarettes held low, my cousin we didnt realise why he was crying for about an hour by then to late but jack someone actually flicked there ash and caught him, im a very placid person until it comes to my babies and all ill say is if jack could have been removed id have bloody hurt her as much as it hurt him! she just went, accident, and that was it i ranted at her for about 10minutes whilst she stared blankly! And the amount of times i sit somewhere and someone lights up next to me, someone even sat chatting to jack and lit one, i just said very loudly for jack, 'weve got to move sweethheart mummy will give you your puffer' and i think i embarassed her a bit as she did apolagise, in the summer alot of our cafes and resturants have seating out front and its so much nicer with a buggy but can rarely use it because the smokers are in 7th heaven!!
sorry for that rant VERY sore subject.
