Followers of BumpWatch, my pregnancy video diary took to our Facebook page this week to relate some of the funny, mean and downright outrageous things people (or should we just say IDIOTS) have said to them as they went about their lives gestating away. From Funny to OUTRAGEOUS: 10 Readers On The Worst Things People Said When They Were Pregnant 1. "When I was pregnant with my wee boy I was at my boyfriends sisters birthday party for an hour in the pub and another fella that I know looked me up and down, turned to his friend and said 'that one there's disgusting now, she's just ruined her body' I was so mad and felt so low that I went home and cried myself to sleep. My body doesn't look any different now to what it did before I got pregnant. People are dicks!" – Leontia 2. "Currently 39wks on my second little one..some people need to engage their brain. I have had the following: 'Is it twins or triplets? ' 'You look like a whale.' 'A baby elephant would make less noise walking around!' ' You will be sorry you gained all that weight'" – Eleanor 3. "They can definitely tell when it's twins? You're quite sure?" – Joan 4. "You're really showing from the back now!" – Gráinne 5. "I lost count of the number of times the "Are you sure it's not twins"? (I'm 5'1" and was all bump) question was thrown at me. One friend even said to me 'God I wasn't that size when I had my baby!!' Feck right off!!!!!!!" – Claire 6. "On my first pregnancy I got asked (by a mother of 4) 'Oh my God I wonder if you'll ever go back to normal'! Luckily I can laugh out loud at it now!" – Sarah 7. "'Jesus, you've put weight on all over... I mean even your fingers are huge!' Thanks for that!! Made me feel great!" – Leah 8. "Maybe if you weren't so short you wouldn't look so big." – Claire 9. Rachel has the equally annoying reverse-shaming to content with: "It actually bothers me when people say I don't look 33 weeks pregnant. I admit, I'm very lucky to be just all baby, but this is the most body confident I've ever been, and comments like that do upset me. My bump is the perfect size (1cm per week), I don't understand why people think its okay to say I'm too small? Do they think that's a compliment? Why can't they say something like 'you're looking so well' instead?" 10. Maggie had some pretty spot on advice: "Pregnancy is just the beginning of people thinking they can say whatever enters their heads when their two brain cells spark off each other... audibly... to your face! It then moves to your post pregnancy body and how to parent your own baby. My advice? Grin in the knowledge you're doing an awesome job growing your baby, xx" Read more on the ridiculous shit people insist on saying to pregnant woman:
