Anyone constantly having comments on your bump size??

Question

I get comments from lots of different people saying my bump is small for 6 months. Although I know they don’t mean it in a bad way but it’s getting so tedious now. Also this is my first pregnancy so sends doubt that my baby isn’t growing as much as they should although my midwife has said no such thing.
There is no set size. Everyone has different shape and size bumps just like our bodies are not all the same.
So why is acceptable to judge and comment on bumps?! Pregnant women are sensitive about their changing bodies as it is. 
Sorry felt like I needed to get that out🙈

Answer

Yup, but opposite for me. This is my first and people make jokes about how big I am and that I will have a ten lb baby. It kind of hurts. Everyone is different and my uterus just really wanted to grow, dammit. I try to brush it off but am reaching a point where I might just say "you are being rude". We are going through enough as it is without everyone else being judgy.

Answer

Yep. This is my #3 and everyone is commenting about how big I am. "Sure it's not twins?" "Wow, you have how long left?" Or BD even said "you're going to be as big as a house" 
Though honestly I don't let it bother me. I'm growing a human being! It's a miracle and I love my bump! Though I am over the back hip and leg pain that come with it. Lol

Answer

I always hated when people told me I looked small. And no one ever talks about how it’s rude to comment on how small a woman is just like commenting on how big a woman is. Just let me and my bump live our life thank you! People need to learn that you don’t comment on the size. Say congrats or you look great and move on

Answer

Yes, I am so sick of the comments! With my first, I had a very small bump, and that was all anyone ever commented which made me feel uncomfortable. I never did get very big but ended up having an 8.12lb baby! This time my bump is a little bigger, but not too much. I have had comments that it’s small, and comments that it’s huge, sometimes by the same people! I think it’s super rude to comment on the size of a pregnant woman, if you must say something, just say “You look great!” Enough said lol.

Answer

My best friend is pregnant too she is 9 weeks ahead of me, I sent her a picture today and she said "oh you have way more cheeks and it's definitely growing a lot" When I've never made comments like that to her, I actually always keep my comments positive, it would be nice for her to show the same courtesy or at least not say anything. 🙄 I think she keeps comparing us, and I have a smaller bump so she makes up by telling me I'm getting more cheeks 🥺💔 super annoying.

Answer

I never show until I’m 7 months lol. People always call me small but after delivering a 7 pound baby, I take it as a compliment! 😋

Answer

I’m right there with ya! At 6 months I was getting the “youre so small for 6 months”, now at 7 months I get “you must be about to have the baby any day now” “wow only 7 months???” Do people really not realize how rude they sound when they make those comments? And it always ends up being people you don’t know!!

Answer

I have people telling me the same thing and I’m also a ftm! Very discouraging. At least we are carrying well I guess 🤷‍♀️

Answer

It shouldn't be acceptable at all!

Answer

I don’t get too many comments this time around. With my first I was just told I was fat. I’m a heavier girl and yet I lost 20lbs with my first. I got tired of hearing it. I also didn’t get a bump until my last 2 months or so. This time around I just popped about 2 months in. I had my first may of 2019.
