Why does EVERYBODY i meet feel the need to...
pass comment on my bump!!!!! its driving me mad. At first i thought it was sweet that everyone was interested but just recently it feel like groundhog day as i'm having the SAME conversations with everyone. 'How far along are you? Oh aren't you big for 4 months, are you sure its not twins? Is it a boy or girl? Have you had any cravings?' Its driving me crazy!!!
I know people mean well but i wish one of them would have a normal conversation with me!! I live above a pub as my OH runs it so i see a lot of people at my work and also when i get home even though i try and escape upstairs! The cleaner at my work, who doesn't know my name has started referring to me a 'fatty' which is fansatic!!!
Does anyone else feel like they have a smile constantly pasted on their faces and repeating the SAME things when you just want to scream, or am i being mean!!!

my one mate said even strangers in shops would come up to her and start feeling her bump - i for one will not be impressed if that happens to me !!
Ive got a definate bump now (not just a pot belly type look) but i think its quite a nice neat bump (but im probably biased!).
From the sounds of other people's posts on here, i think we may have to get used to the comments!! :roll:
I dont mind my close family or friends touching my bump and its mainly my little niece who strokes my tum for ages but i wouldnt like a stranger rubbing it. I think i might feel uncomfortable if work colleagues did too but so far no-one has.
NO it is not twins - leave me alone. I've been called fatty as well - by members of my family too! And they can't get enough of prodding and poking me, & talking to my belly! It is nice but I will be so sick of it in the coming months lol x x x
The comments do only get worse i'm afraid, and i also will never comment on bump size to anyone else ever again!

My friend said people would say things like " ooh your face is getting round" why is it ok for people to say these things when they wouldn't dream of saying it to a non-pregnant lady!
cant wait for my bump, but dare anyone spoil it for me by calling me fatty, i will tear shreds off them!!!!!
