3rd Trimester

Rude comments!

Anyone else getting any rude comments from friends/family? For the most part my friends and family have been saying how wonderful I look and how tiny I am. Then there are the select few that seem to think inconsiderate comments are no big deal. 2 days ago my mother in law's husband said "You look like you're going to explode!" I almost punched him in the nose! And my mom's favorite thing to say is, "This baby is going to come early!"--which if you are a hormonal, sensitive pregnant woman translates into, "You look big, or bigger than you should." I'm 33 weeks along and have gained about 30 lbs. I am short (5'2), so putting on this weight has been really hard for me. I eat healthy and walk regularly and was at a healthy weight when I got pregnant. And I feel good! Doctor says I am doing great. So why the rude comments? It really takes a toll on my confidence and makes me feel sad and unattractive!
