Anyone else want to burn whatever place you’re in down when someone says “you’re eating for two” or any other cliche stupid baby advice?

Question

Seriously though, if I’m not hungry then I’m not gonna eat.. don’t tell me I’m eating for two.. that shit isn’t even real 🙄

Answer

Haha no but the unsolicited advice gets so annoying. Like cool i dont need to hear about how sleep deprived we’ll be, or “oh you like your house super clean now? Just wait itll be a mess” 🙄

Answer

No I’m not a drama queen

Answer

Same! It’s like calm down, i only need to eat a few hundred extra calories a day not double the food!

Answer

This is the second time I’ve broken out in full body hives for a week plus... every inch of my body is covered in hives and we can’t figure out why. I’m on steroid creams and Zyrtec and Benedryl with minimal relief...I have no known allergies and it is not PUPPS. With that being said everyone keeps telling me “oh it will be worth it when your baby is here!” I’m like I know that but that TRULY does NOT make the pain or itch any better... like please shut the fuck up 😭
I also hate it when the only thing people want to talk about is my pregnancy, I’m a very private person and it’s like people are waiting for me to tell them the icky stuff happening to my body 🤦🏻‍♀️ 
Lastly someone in particular asks me like 6 times a week if I’m excited that I’m so close to having my baby, like fuck I answered that question the same as you asked the first time. It’s not like my response is going to change to “no not really” like 😓 
I know this all seems petty but when you are pregnant and especially uncomfortable with everything happening to your body sometimes the last thing you want to discuss is your pregnancy...so I understand exactly what you are saying.

Answer

When I first announced my pregnancy EVERYONEEE started telling my husband how I'm gonna be craving everything, making him run out at 3am for this and that. I'm gonna eat weird shit like pickles and ice cream. 
I'll be eating "for two". Etc etc.
I'm 19 weeks now, eat the same about I ALWAYS have. Which is breakfast, no lunch and dinner. Maybe a snack later. I actually get full way quicker than I did before. I find it hard to finish my full dinner and I haven't had a SINGLE craving at all. 
Everyone's shocked I'm not stuffing my face like a cow and I'm tired of hearing it. 🙄
