Said I looked thick (at 6 weeks-I had JUST found out two days before and was crazy bloated from a vacation with lots of food and margaritas). Only she didn't acknowledge she "knew" until week 12, so I found out in hindsight I just looked fat. So full of it. Now she always says she knew, drives me nuts</p> <p>If you're going to say "I knew it", wrap it in a nice compliment at least! The food comment was passive aggressive, geez. And all whole mooching your moms discount too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680931 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 19:50:32 +0000 anbanan15 680931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: haha!! Philosophy andshe is obsessed! My mom gets a huge discount at her work so she was very busy deciding what her next order should be lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680913 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 19:33:10 +0000 autumnlove 680913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awwwhh, I'm sorry!</p> <p>What kind of body wash does she use? Lol! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680888 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 19:11:18 +0000 anbanan15 680888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@redsmarties: hilarious! </p> <p>@MamaBehr: DH and my mom both commeted about my butt after I told them I was pregnant. I hope that means girl for us too!! Haha truth is mine may have gotten a little bigger recently but I was extremely underweight while breastfeeding and have been eating a normal diet the last 2 months. </p> <p> @Mrs. Jacks: @Weagle: That is a much nicer way of saying it. She hardly looked up from the computer when I told her and her tone was almost tinged with jealousy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680873 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 18:52:52 +0000 MamaBehr 680873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I once had a co-worker tell me that with her daughter her butt got huge, I walked in the room a few days later and she looked at my hips and said "oh yah, that's a girl." She's lucky I didn't punch her. </p> <p>She was right though, I did have a girl! My butt however, was fantastically the correct size hahaha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680870 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 18:49:14 +0000 reyorra 680870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@redsmarties: That's hilarious! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680860 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 18:41:56 +0000 betsyboop 680860@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anbanan15: Ugh so annoying. One woman I know said she could tell I was pregnant by the pimples on my cheeks. Gee thanks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680844 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 18:31:41 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 680844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I say that, but always in the context of "you've been glowing" or something like that. But truth be told, often you can tell, usually by how she's walking. (wider gait). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680822 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 18:16:12 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 680822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My hubby's grandpa, who often seems to know things before anyone else, said "Oh, you found out!" when we announced we were pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680788 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:47:47 +0000 anbanan15 680788@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Thanks! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680786 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:46:38 +0000 Andrea 680786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!</p> <p>I had someone say that to me, too. I didn't really know what to make of it.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680785 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:46:33 +0000 anbanan15 680785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sweet T: I don't think the comment or even going back to talking about herself would have bothered me, except she never said congratulations or anything. Just made a few rude comment and moved on. She didn't need to jump or down or anything but a congrats would have been nice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680783 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:44:18 +0000 Weagle 680783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had lots of people tell me they knew, and I've known people were pregnant before asking. Though, I only tell friends and I say it's because they had a glow :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680778 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:42:46 +0000 Sweet T 680778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uh. I hate when people say stuff like this. Why can't you just say 'Congratulations,' and leave it at that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680774 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:40:11 +0000 anbanan15 680774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ocean girl: @grizz: haha Love this! I'm only 6 weeks and have no symptoms and no weight gain etc. yet. I have bags under my eyes because my child doesn't sleep (if that is what she is basing it off of nowise knows he doesn't sleep). DH and I were not trying but not preventing, and she said "I knew you were trying because you were eating regular food again". Really?!?! I'm pretty sure I was eating regular food the last 2 months because DS stopped sucking on my breast and so why would I countinue to eat the same limited diet if I didn't have to?! She is definitely all about herself, just like all my IL's, on both sides, sadly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680767 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:34:37 +0000 Boheme 680767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got that from my boss of all people! She said 'Oh, I guessed that because you've got bags under your eyes and you look really peaked. But your boobs are huge!' thanks. </p> <p>I also hated the people who said 'I knew it!' when we announced we were having a boy. No you didn't. You had a 50/50 chance of guessing correctly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680758 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:29:11 +0000 Ocean girl 680758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anbanan15: I had this from a coworker. When I told her I was expecting, she said "I've know since before Christmas. You were looking really tired in December". I got my BFP on Dec 15th and had NO symptoms other than sore boobs for weeks. People like to make your news about them - "oh, I knew that already"... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-knew-you-were-pregnant#post-680753 Sun, 31 Mar 2013 17:25:05 +0000 anbanan15 680753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"I knew you were pregnant. I can see it in your face."</p> <p>Say what? Said by my SIL as she went back to talking about her body wash. Sigh </p>
