Mums talk about the most annoying things said to them while pregnant

Olivia Hayes

Hormones. And rude people.

People say strange things. Some of them mean it, some of them don’t – but either way, it gets to us. It could be hormones that get us so worked up (ALL the hormones), or it could be that they’re generally being rude.

Well, a thread has appeared online of the most annoying things that have been said to mums while pregnant, and yep, we totally get it.

Here are the worst:

“I know people don’t mean to be rude, but if I’m told one more time how big I am…. like seriously.”

 

“Are you sure it’s not twins?”

 

“You must be ready to pop!”

 

“It feels like people constantly calling you fat!”

 

“I hardly had a bump, was everything ok with the baby etc really upset me.”

 

“I’m only 24wks and I keep getting, ‘oh, I can’t believe you’re not due until then, you look ready to drop’.”

 

“I am pregnant with twins and today was told I look really small for being 27w with twins, yesterday someone else told me I’m getting really big, you really can’t win!”
