Long time lurker! Been meaning to write this for a couple of weeks now.
I am pregnant with my first baby, a girl, due in December.
I work directly opposite my manager in a small office (other colleagues all in a large, open-plan space directly outside our office. Starting to get incredibly hacked off with manager constantly making remarks about how squeamish she is about my pregnancy ("eww can see your stomach move" "hummus, eww, is that a craving?" etc etc). I have been experiencing really bad sickness and she is apparently severely phobic of sickness and will constantly say "eww the thought of throwing up makes me ill"..I go to great lengths to vomit in secret, armed with toothbrush etc out of respect but I really do not need to hear these constant comments.
She notices EVERYTHING, it's bizarre, nothing more repulsive than someone with whom you are not close commenting on how big my boobs are. Just generally don't want to hear every 5 minutes how repulsive she finds pregnancy when I am quite a private person and always endeavour not to bore people with accounts of personal things.
It is just exhausting. Is this something you have to just take on the chin though?? The constant negativity is killing me!!!
