DP, colleagues, 'friends' and family continue to do frankly inconsiderate stuff all fucking day. Many of them breathe audibly. I am subject to people chewing their fucking food, making casual conversation and even commenting on the size and shape of my bump, as if it's a massive fucking surprise that I might look heavily pregnant at this stage. Not one of them seems able to reconcile my condition, of which they are patently aware, with their endlessly inconsiderate existence. WIBU to emigrate?

Ha ha. Made me laugh. I feel exactly the same only I have 7 weeks to go!

If I hear are you sure it's not twins once more I'm going to stab someone..

reelingintheyears · 23/04/2013 19:03

I'd emigrate if i were you.

Bastards.

TheVermiciousKnid · 23/04/2013 19:05

I feel like that most days. And I'm not even pregnant.

Why don't you make everybody else emigrate? I'm considering doing that.

Loulybelle · 23/04/2013 19:08

When i was pregnant, everyfucker at work had a pop at me or snide comment to make, got right fucked off with some snotty BAA bint, as if i didnt look pregnant, wanted me to walk all the way down to the baggage area, rather than get the lift, what a bitch.

Freddiemisagreatshag · 23/04/2013 19:09

Kill them all.

FrustratedSycamoresRocks · 23/04/2013 19:10

Ugh, the breathing! And the chewing! And small talk! And the existing! They are all inconsiderate! I really feel for you. We need to get them to emigrate.

HoHoHoNoYouDont · 23/04/2013 19:10

Leave the bastards Grin

Loulybelle · 23/04/2013 19:12

Oh and when 8 months pregnant, massive and achy, my best friend told me that Snape dies, grrrrrrr....5 years later and she still aint allowed to forget, how very dear she, bitch.

MissSusan · 23/04/2013 19:15

I came on to say leave the bastards, but HoHo beat me to it.

Fucking Arsewipes. Hope you gave them hell.

MissSusan · 23/04/2013 19:15

Snape dies ? Shock Sad

Loulybelle · 23/04/2013 19:17

Whoops!!!!!

YANBU. Kill them all and then emigrate. Or you could wait till you're over 40 weeks. You're allowed to kill them and steal their kittens, sweets and warm jumpers then.

mrspaddy · 23/04/2013 19:26

Tell me about it.. I am only 21 weeks and so sick of the chat .. ooooh... is the weight going on all over.. your boobs are big.. just because your pregnant doesn't mean everyone has license to comment..grrrrrrrr

Guntie · 23/04/2013 19:30

this thread bought a massive smile to my face Grin

thank you OP!

MmeThenardier · 23/04/2013 19:34

Pregnancy isn't an illness and you're not entitled to special treatment.

Ok sorry, just joking YANBU, emigrate. I hate noisy eaters at the best of times...

HungryClocksGoBackFourSeconds · 23/04/2013 19:46

The day before I had DD I got really fucking angry at an ambulance for daring to go past with the sirens on.

Ruralninja · 23/04/2013 19:49

arrf

Theyoniwayisnorthwards · 23/04/2013 20:06

YANBU. Fuck them.

piprabbit · 23/04/2013 20:09

I felt the exact same way at 38 weeks pg.
DS is 5yo next week and I still feel the same. Heightened irritation plus guilt, the double whammy of motherhood.

WillYouDoTheFandango · 23/04/2013 20:52

I finished work at 37 weeks. In the week before every single colleague took the time to tell me that I had "that proper pregnant waddle now". Hibernate, it's the only way to avoid killing someone.

FunnysInLaJardin · 23/04/2013 20:54

yanbu and it's even worse 2 weeks overdue Grin huh!

FunnysInLaJardin · 23/04/2013 20:55

that was supposed to be a HTH not a freaky huh. Which is what an acquaintance of mine oddly does many times every conversation

Sparklyboots · 23/04/2013 20:56

See this is why I love MN - the sense of perspective it brings. Here was me considering emigration, when all along I've been conditioned by the 9 months of this shit to accept it as 'normal' . THEY should be emigrating, not me. DS, 2.3 can stay because he so eloquently expresses my own inner feelings (mainly, "nooooooooooo!"). The rest have had it.

YANBU

Some people.... I mean breathing? How dare they!

I was enormous with DS2, and everything infuriated me.

You will be fine :) Thanks

and congratulations by the way.
