I'm tired of people automatically scanning from my pregnant belly to my ring finger. Does it really matter these days? | Oh thats also, if not more so annoying!  | Definately!! I am waiting for all these comments, and I will tell them all to sod off. Know plenty of married people in sh*t relationships and also 30 and 40 year old mums who act like children. Age and status DO NOT MATTER  |

I get id'd too. I had to get a provisional driving licence because I left work and don't have any ID and couldn't buy beer or go into pubs! And people talk down to me, they talk to my husband who is the same age and equally qualified and then thier tone changes for me. So I have been debating whether I will seem olderwhen I have a bump, or if I will get this too.
I sympathise. And they shouldn't do it, no matter your age. I might get a tshirt with 'I Am 31' on it (though that would stop me getting child bus tickets, lol.). Or I might just go out and start arguments, I'm pretty feisty at the mo. |

My word, do people actually DO that!?!?? That has GOT to be more than annoying!!!! I would honestly just keep shouting your age at them and watch them squirm. Or have a maternity t-shirt made with your bday on the back and like "1st generation" and bubs EDD on the front with an arrow and "2nd generation" or sth like that- see what I mean? I'd be in everyone's face for sure. Ugh.  |

| How rude. What does it matter even if you were a teenager? People disgust me sometimes
I'm 20 and I've actually got no rude comments thus far (except from my gran and dad when they first found out). |

People find such silly ways to be judgemental. And really, if they are thinking like that, it's them who's the bad person! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | i get it. im 20 (so not that far out of my teens but still) and ppl look at me then look at my bump and then just sort of turn away as if to ' bloody hell another one ruinin her's and her babys life' it got to the point a few weeks ago i didnt even want to go down the baby ailse in tesco, and i didnt want to go to baby stores to look at things. but the OH had a talk with me and made me see sense. its not what the strangers think, everyone has their own opinions. he told me i was going to be a great mummy and i should be enjoying my bump not trying to hide it so stupid woman wont give me dirty looks. |
