First Pregnancy - FTM Vent

Ja

Not sure if this is the best forum for this but I just needed to get it off my chest.

My business partner - a woman in her fifties with two teenagers - has known about my pregnancy since not long after I found out. She is extremely unhappy that I will be taking time off and I am SO EXHAUSTED from all of her comments. She tells me multiple times a week that I don't know what I'm getting into, that I won't be able to handle it or being a working mom. It's gotten bad enough that I no longer like to tell her about my checkups or baby's growth because she follows it with some spiteful or rude comment.

She's done it so me so much that other moms making similar comments has me instantly seething.

How did you deal with negative comments during your pregnancy if it wasn't possible to avoid the negative individuals?
