I'm not sure if I'm being unreasonable or not. I work in an open plan office, and there is a lady that comes in once a fortnight. I'm 19 weeks pregnant. She's always making comments about how terrible late pregnancy is. Gives me something to look forward to obviously!
Most of the time I just smile, nod and ignore her. Today she went one further asking me really intimate questions about whether I had leaky boobs yet, wind etc. Now I'm quite a private person, it's unlikely I'd discuss this with my Mum, let alone a relative stranger.
So I shut her down, saying that I wasn't comfortable talking about it. I probably came across as snappy. To which another lady (in this open plan office) pointed out how terrible I'll be in labour if I can't talk about it now.
AIBU to think that it's not any of their business and talking about it and giving birth with medical professionals is a bit different to being expected to discuss my fanjo and boobs at work?!

AIBU?
To think that my body is not something I want to discuss with people I barely know.
