Weight

I am technically around 6 months pregnant if you consider each month to have 4 weeks... Anyhow I'm gonna rip the next persons head off that asks if I'm having twins cuz im so big or if I'm gonna pop next week! I have an athletic shaped body and have always weighed around 150, I'm 5'8" and now weight 162. I only gained weight in the belly and boobs, am I over reacting?? I thought I was doing good on weight....

Oh don't worry!!! People will make those stupid comments and I think they just don't realize how we feel :( there are times when I just want to punch some people for saying things... I think u r doing great on ur weight gain! Just try to ignore them, even though I know how hard that can be...

People can be so rude!! They really pick a bad time when we're pregnant, don't they know we have an inner physco chick that can be released at any moment?! Lol

I hated when people would ask me if I was having twins or ask "are you really sure there's only one baby in there?". It would make me so mad. I was so huge when I was pregnant, all belly too. I know it's hard to ignore them, but I would always just give that fake laugh and say nope, there's only one there.

Some people just don't think before they speak. My FIL is that way and the best thing to do is just ignore them. If its family say something.

Most of my family is over weight so I have always been a freak about staying fit. Jus so irritating, don't know why the "if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all" rule doesn't apply.
