Hi all

Okay, so i'm not one to be bothered about what other people think about me usually, but i've noticed that whilest i go shopping for baby things, people constantly stare! .. i mean, i see them, it's so obvious lol! .. they tend to just stare at my bump in disgrace! .. i'm 18 but i think i look much younger, especially without makeup on (not sucha yummy mummy lol!) .. but they don't know my story/situation! .. who are they to judge!
anyone else getting this? i also get little girls whispering as i go by, i just tend to stick my bump out and smile! .. but it's irritating!!

Yup! I get it all the time. I get people say stuff to me, tut, shake there heads, point, laugh and talk about me really loudly like i cant hear

Sometimes it pisses me off spesh when im already in a bad mood, but other times i just find it funny that they even take any notice. Some people are just way too narrow minded

it's irritating that they think because i'm pregnant they have the right to blab their opinions at me! .. i could comment back on their appearance but i choose not to

lol!

Yes about everytime I walk in to walmart, unless I have a huge sweater on.
I'll tell my boyfriend its weird that everyone just stares at my tummy, and he will say
who cares what they think.

I still look at all the pregnant women...I want to run up and hug them and say ME TOO!
Hope they don't think I'm judging them.

I haven't had anything much yet, but I'm only just starting to show ...

I did go to an event thing were we sat down and must have 'robbed' a seat that some lady was 'saving' for someone (she wasn't sat on the chairs though) and when the woman she was waiting for came in she was like "Well I was saving you a seat but someone took it"

I was like "Ohh sorry is was that me, I didn't realise .. " - Wrote down that looks scarcastic but I said and meant it genuinely and she was just like "Ohh no it's fine" in a very snobby way ...

She was like 60 though and prob thought I was a lot younger than I am

Also I don't know if it was cos of my age or just cos she was a cow

Also some people (customers in work) have said "Oooh you only look a baby yourself .. " and "Omg your mad" - I think that one was more because I was even having kids rather than my age (she was ovbiously a mum herself lol)

Most people have been fab though, for example if there's a pregnant lady or someone with a baby sometimes I'll be like "Oh well I'm pregnat we're thinking of that name ..." or "Ohh we're not gona find out the sex" etc, etc and most people are like "Aww well congratulations", "Good Luck" etc
