I have had judgey pants on today... For the first time

[Kayano]

hangs head

I don't even want to say what it was because

1. I didn't know the girl
2. it affects me not a damn bit

But... I was , and I like to gas so here it is.

I looked out of the window and saw a young pregnant girl (about 7 - 8 months) walking down the street in pj bottoms and ugh boots (really) and what I can only describe as a crop top. I could see nothing but bi flaming stretch marks.
Not that stretch marks are to be judged because I am 31 weeks and am getting them too... But I was just so shocked to see them! In December! On display! This is in the north too so it is freezing, I nearly fell just going to the bin . I also didn't see the pint in the crop top because she was wearing a big coat over the top (although open).

And to cap it all off... (promise I'm not just ticking boxes) she was smoking too

I don't know why I mentioned she was young because I would have been shocked no matter of age but my stupid phone won't let me go back :S

I now feel awful and need to be told iabu. Ta

What do you mean by 'being raised by that'?

Ok, she's selfish to be smoking as it can cause harm to the baby...although I'm not sure she'd come in for as much criticism if she were very overweight...which can also cause harm to the baby.

But calling her 'that' is a bit uncalled for don't you think?

Wow that is a mild situation to induce first time judgy pants wear. I have only worn mine once really, when a couple were feeding their toddler sachets of sugar on the bus. I work for a dentist so it had to be done.

I got so freakishly hot in my first pregnancy. I had every window and door open all day and night in the middle of winter in the west of ireland! I also turned up to a hospital appointment one day in a camisole top and no coat. Consultant was but I would have collapsed of heat exhaustion of I'd worn any more clothes!

the pyjamas would have had me adjusting my judgey pants though.

I get that but did your camisole cover your tummy?

It wasn't like the woman's flaps were on show!

I know
I WBU about the belly but I was shocked

And I did judge and I am ashamed.
I did debate about posting. But it was that or ironing lol

Revolting plebeian. I'd have had proper little judge-up to myself too, Kay

after the sights i saw at the end of our Xmas do on Sat (huge event with 500 people..lots of drunk women staggering around and bending over showing things they shouldn't in their short dresses) a belly could not shock me

Fanjo, I often go out with BOTH flaps on show.

Who are you to judge?!

its all in the name

is your name short for "yellow flasher's raincoat"?

dear op

i just judged you for saying that this was the first time you judged

No...

(looks around shiftily)

I pull my flaps up over my head to keep my ears warm

kayano.... not really.. it covered the bots I could see but did not have the same effect for the observer.

That said I was a [gasp] young mum and was blessed with a size 10 figure and cute bump during that pregnancy [smug]

How many bots have you got, Santa?

lol... bits

I wonder if she was alright? I had vicious row with DH when i was about 7mths
pregnant, and ran out the house in a nightdress and a pair of wellies
tears streaming down my face, hair all over the gaff. I walked onto the high st to a cafe. Fuck knows what the rush-hour people going to work thought, there's
probably a thread on here about it .

It looked like she may have just been nipping to the shop. I can't say I noticed any signs of upset/ distress.

I was too busy and thinking ShE WILL FREEZE!

Sounds like normal behaviour for the north.

My judgey pants are "no VPL" so as to be virtually undetectable

In this girls defense, I actually like the PJ/ugg boot look. It can be seen a bit around here with a Jack Wills sweatshirt, but only by the private school girls with the swept over hair.

And it's hard to find a top to cover your tummy when pregnant. All tops seem to become crop tops, unless you find something nice in Gap maternity.

But I would have told her to put out the cigarette. And given a little lecture about depriving her unborn baby of oxygen. Actually, I wouldn't, but I would have wanted to.

ThePathan - I also had a row with DH when heavily pregnant. Went stomping about in the dark, on icy pavements, pretending not to notice my concerned DH was following at a distance in the manner of a private detective because he was worried about me

Jamie mine found me stuffing my face with a "truckers" breakfast at the cafe, i'd told the owner, lovely greek man what he'd said to me, so he sat there, while the whole Greek family came out and gave him filthy looks! Ha.

Glad it wasn't just me stomping off unsuitably dressed whilst pregnant.
