Things you just don’t want to hear

I know that part of being pregnant means that I will be physically growing a baby and that in turn means that I’ll be getting larger.  I know this but for the love of god does everyone have to be so excited about me getting a “tummy” or a “bump” no matter how you crack it it’s like hearing “you’re getting really large”.

I do have a very small rational sane bone in my body – just the one, but I have it and I know that I should be all “oh, this is so nice” but all the other bones in my body are going “DO YOU ALL have to be so damn excited that my shirts are tight and that nothing fits and I’m so not looking like myself in the mirror anymore?”  Don’t get me wrong – I’m really really excited about the baby and all of that stuff….but on top of not “feeling” like myself, being hungry or tired as a state of being and now not looking like myself…it’s just bizarre.

Maybe it’s just Monday.

  1. It gets easier. I promise. Soon nothing will fit at all and you’ll have people asking if you’ve having twins, or MY GOD, you didn’t have that baby YET? Are are you SURE there’s only one?

    Oh yes, it gets better.

    When are you due?

  2. My body feels like an alien. I feel ya sister.

  3. Wait until everybody comes up to you and wants to touch said belly/bump LOL. I have heard of my pregnant friends that it is the most annoying thing ever.

  4. I like to snarl at people who make comments like that. I even bit the head off the woman who said I was the biggest pregnant lady she had ever seen.

    It is NEVER cute to be sporting some chub. I hate when people try to say it is. Better you than me, I guess!

  5. at least people notice for you! when I was pregnant no one noticed until maybe my 8th month, and working in new york city and not having people notice your pregnant means that people just bump into you and don’t care just like any other new york city day.
