Annoyed and emotional

I was in the kitchen eating a doughnut, my husband walks in and says "your always putting something in your mouth, Fatty... Nah, I'm just playing." That comment really hurt my feelings. (I'm crying)
I know my husband feels bad about the comment and perhaps why he said he was playing. but it annoys me when people interrupt you eating and say things like "dang your eating again"  "your gonna get fat"  it's very irritating. Are any of you ladies experiencing this? How are u dealing with it?

My hubby says that all the time, I'll eat and not to much longer in hungry again so I'll eat something else. And he'll say "your fat" and I'll tell him "no I'm pregnant there's a difference" and he'll give me more food and I accept it and he laughs and says "ur fat" tbh it just makes me laugh because although I eat a lot I don't think I'm gaining much weight! And he loves my growing bump, were a young couple so we play around.

I literally just own up to my eating.  My hubby jokes about how much i eat now and when he does decided to mention that I am eating alot i say yup and eat something else. It makes him laugh which in turn makes me laugh. I figure im growing a human being so im aloud to stuff my face if i want:)

Am I the only one who laughs when my husband calls me a fatty?? I'm only 8 weeks and still a lot smaller than him...maybe that's why I find it so funny. I have been eating a whole lot.. which is a huge shock to him cause he knows I used to eat super small meals and be full for the rest of the day.

Don't take it personal. Your having a baby for crying out loud... be happy about it and just laugh!!!! Shoot... I'd love a donut right now!

At the end of the day if they think we're fat...it doesn't hurt them to TAP our fat @$$£$ and let us cook for them and wash their skiddy undies etc etc. This is why my hubby now respects me and ALL the juice coz when we first got together we were 15 and 16 and of course little runts and as time went by we BOTH grew into our adult bodies but mine got worse after the kids....before we had our kids we used to argue a bit and he would call me a "fat biarch" (even though I was slimmer then) but I just said exactly that..."If you don't like it find someone else but no no since you love tapping my fat @$$ shut your mouth!!" He has never said anything like that to me since and actually loves my juicy body now more than ever after the kids and we've been together 19 years...this is our 4th.....If they are that nasty though ladies I would put like snot in their cuppa or something hahaha.. or if you're not that vindictive then stop washing his dirrties n just say "Ohh I'm too fat to move today"...that'll teach them to miss treat their BETTER halves!!!

Yeah. The BF tries to make me feel bad about eating food off his plate, even when he asks if I want anything before he gets it. He's a health guru so I just rub it in his face how good a cupcake is while I eat it in front of him. Yeah. That'll teach him to share.

My husband isnt insensitive at all he tries hard to make me feel beautiful all the time. BUT my father and grandmother (my dads mom) are sooo insensitive to that just like they were to my mom. They are more concerned about me not eating too much and me not gaining much weight then they are about my babys health. Im 20 weeks and only gained 6 pounds so far but thats cause im craving healthy foods. My father and grandmother make me sick.. when my mom was pregnant with me all she heard from both of them was how she was eating too much and getting way to fat ( she gained like 40lbs when she was carrying me) it broke my mom to tears on a near daily basis. Im glad your hubby feels remorse and said he was kidding! I know there are times I feel more self conscious about my growing belly!!

Haha yes true my hubby has been gaining pregnancy weight too its quite cute..this is our first son and I'm not usually a steak eater but that's all I craved in the first and second trimester and he wanted salads lol, then we have both been craving eggs. He has probably packed on around the same amount of weight as I have but lucky he is a carpet layer and can work it off unlike myself...I usually help him at work doing the prep... he is self employed, but I won't be able to after baby comes.

Oh poor you...my husband would never be so insensitive and say things like that. He knows I'm conscious about my size as it is and always tells me how sexy I am to him even though I don't think so. He loves my big belly too and holds it when we go to sleep... we have 4 weeks to go from tomorrow so it's REALLY big lol...this is our 4th baby and first son. We have been together for 19 years though so that may be why he is that way towards me. I was anorexic when we met but am now quite juicy but he doesn't poke fun about how I look and I'm very greatful for his love and support. You should really talk to your husband and let him know it hurts your feelings when he makes little comments like that because pregnant women are extremely sensitive and can take the smallest things to heart which can sometimes lead to depression and self loathe. I hope you feel better and please love love love your body..it is such a beautiful thing being able to grow another human as precious as our babies. And each n every scar and stretch mark we collect along the way just shows our beautiful journeys into motherhood.

I can't say I take it very personal when my husband makes comments like that because we always joke around with each other and don't take comments like that very serious.  He and I both know I'm eating for two and I can't speak for everyone cause every couple has different relationship and how each one reacts to comments such as that.  If it really bothers you when he speaks that way towards you I'd just let him know that you don't appreciate comments like that so he knows not to say that next time.  Also it doesn't help when we're hormonal and emotional so we are much more sensitive to  certain things.
