AIBU to be upset over this comment about my weight?

[Elly10]

I’ve had a baby 6 weeks ago and lost 2 stone so far. I was only ever a size 16 before and now I’m a size 14 and I’m tall, it’s really noticeable and I’ve had so many compliments from friends. However, DP hasn’t said a word about my weightloss. I mentioned it to him, how I’ve lost 2 stone in 6 weeks and all his reply was “Yeah but you’re still 13 stone”
I took that as “You’re still heavy” ?!
I was shocked and just walked away in a mood. I’m actually really upset about this, I think it goes deeper because the fact he hasn’t paid me any compliments since having our baby. I feel this was a comment to put me down.

You’ve lost two stone in SIX WEEKS?! The only thing you should be worrying about is recovering after birth and bonding with your baby. That’s a shitty thing for him to say.

I’m afraid he seems to mind your post baby figure.

It would both upset and enrage me. But ultimately it’s him with a character fault in all this, not you with a bodily flaw.

You've lost weight pretty quickly - have you been trying or you just haven't felt like eating? Also it's weird how he knows what you weigh! I don't know that my DH would ever comment on my weight unless I specifically asked him... and he wouldn't have a clue what my weight is!

I'd challenge him on it, it's a nasty thing to say.

How very unkind.

This.

he’s a rude, unkind cunt.

Please don’t worry about losing weight unless you want to. focus on looking after yourself after giving birth. you are amazing!

I really hope you’re not losing weight so quickly because you’re trying to please this awful man and it’s being done for you!

Is he overweight? Sounds like he’s jealous because you just had a baby and you’re losing weight when he probably knows he could lose a bit and hasn’t had the willpower.

If people mention weight they will get a response in return, not everyone will like the response

That’s a lot of weight to lose in just 6 weeks, particularly when you’ve just had a baby so can’t be doing any strenuous exercise. Is it weight you’re trying to lose or just weight that has come off naturally through being postpartum and exhaustion? I personally was eating like CRAZY in those first few weeks postpartum, I was so hungry with the early stages of breastfeeding!

He sounds like a twat though. What a dickhead thing to say to your wife.

Also it's weird how he knows what you weigh!

I assume she's told him... I doubt he's been rigging her up to scales in her sleep or has a special ability to determine weight.

My partner and I both know what the other weighs. It's not a secret. We both know how tall the other is, too. And what size clothes the other wears.

I assume he’s as sexy as Brad Pitt is he? No, thought not.
He’s been a dickhead
