Do you/Have you gotten this?

So, I had an emergency c-section 6 and a half months ago for DS to come into this world. I've just gone back to work last week and I've worked 3 shifts... and every damn shift, there's always at least 3 or 4 smarta...es that say 'You sure your not pregnant again?'

I know they're probably joking, but just because I still have a lot of my stomach after DS was born, doesn't mean I'm pregnant! I get so upset by it because all I can think is 'How would you like it if I said the same thing!!?' My self esteem plummets which isn't good in the job I've got, and I feel like rubbish for the whole shift.
Just because I'm at home with my DS, doesn't mean I get to excerise all the time!

ARGH!
Sorry, just venting :wall:

HOW RUDE!! could you maybe just reply with that? you know ask them if there pregnant? or bugger it....just kick 'em in the shins!!!!
:hug: :hug:

PO5, don't tempt me!

The last person (the 6th one) that said it to me drove me so mad that I just ranted and raved out loud in the staff canteen. They asked and I said 'No, I'm not f**ing pregnant again, and i wish people would stop saying that! I have a baby and I don't find the time for excercise, IF YOU MUST KNOW! So get off my case, ok?!'
As you can tell, they peeved me off

I agree, a swift "yes, I'm sure, but what about you, are they twins?", male OR female ;)

That used to drive me nuts too! My answer was simply, 'no, just fat, but thanks for rubbing it in!'
Now I am pregnant & half way through, I only have some days when I actually look pregnant...people are starting to wonder if I am! That drives me just as nuts, lol!!

I actually said the fat thing not so long ago....turns out I was! But it wasn't the belly she noticed. Apparently I was glowing...I actually told her to kiss my bum! No way in heck was I pregnant.......lol

I get the same thing hun, but for me its over 18 months ago! LOL, oh well...I have noticed though, when I get up in the morning, before I eat anything, my tummy looks ok (with clothes on!) but as soon as I eat anything I look about 5 months pregnant...im too scared to do any situps or anything due to the muscle separation i got, hope fully be going to see a physio soon to sort all that out.

I agree with what clover said, something short and sweet which perfectly gets the point across.
