I don't remember who it was but I was reading a blog the other day one of my twitter mamas had written about going shopping while pregnant and then afterwards with a stroller. Getting the "stink eye" for shopping while pregnant in a NON maternity store.
WELL...
I go into a store today that I ALWAYS shop at. Most of them know me, one of the girls there is 6 months pregnant and was even showing me which clothes she's bought from there while pregnant. Seriously i bought a wife beater tank top (i own a million) and a spandex type dress. I also already own one of these types of dresses in a different colour, its perfect and comfy andI can wear it with spandex kapris theyre very cute.
SO..
I get to the cash and the girl looks at me, "would you like to try these on?" I said "No, i already own clothes like them, It'll be fine.". She then says "Well I'd advise you to keep the reciept in case they dont fit". I was about to be like LISTEN BITCH... but I was polite and said yah thanks and left.
Like fuck off I've been pregnant for 9 months now I KNOW what im doing! LOL

Pregnant in Public..
So, a fellow Tweeter and I were talking this morning about how funny it is running errands while being pregnant. No matter where you go or what you’re doing theres always someone that wants to give you their ‘two cents”. I went out one day few weeks ago, right now I am 39 weeks pregnant, and within the same day I was told I’m carrying high, then low, then its a boy then they say its a girl! Like everyone has something different to say. It’s as if becuase while THEY were pregnant that something happened to them, well that’s just the way it is for everyone!
I THINK, I do not know as I have NOT had my child yet, but I think that after giving birth it must make you automatically assume you are a pregnancy “expert” of some kind!? NOT saying everyone is this way and I definitely don’t want to sound ignorant or rude so relax. I’m sure I will think I’m some kind of expert as well…I mean aren’t I after this long?! haha. Y’all just need to remember : EVERY PREGNANCY IS DIFFERENT!
Do you know how stupid you look when you tell me “I MUST be having a boy” and then I go to a different store and they tell me “I MUST be having a girl” ?? Y’all sound ridiculous, and I’m the one that has to hear it evvvvverrrryyytime I go out in the world! AND the WORST ones are the ones that keep going ON and ON, while I’m clearly trying to get away..slowly backing up…looking away from them..NOT engaging in the conversation..i really dont care what your (you being a random person) opinion is of me!
I do however, LOVE and WELCOME , personal stories. It’s always amazing to hear about other womens stories of their pregnancy and their children. Hearing stories, and experiences are wonderful, I love it, I follow every mom possible on twitter I think, for their stories and words of wisdom. BUT there is a difference between sharing a story of what happened to you while you were pregnant, and ASSUMING that its happening to me!
Anyway, one week till my due date, then I’m sure I’ll be comparing labour stories with people, and they wont be able to imagine WHY id have “this” kind of labor becuase THEY didn’t. oh well eh.. its amusing. Like i said I’m sure I’ll assume I’m a pro too but i wont be ASSUMING anything about anyone. To be completely honest, I really don’t feel the need to even talk to random people while I’m shopping period. pregnant or not. LOL k now I just sound like a bitch.
Let’s hope i keep up this blogging now that im computer equipped! LOL
