still no comments..
I have 38 days left, and I feel like my stomach could not get any bigger, and yet not a single comment from anyone on my pregnancy. Not a single " how far along are you?" Or " when are you due?" Or " you are glowing " nothing. I'm wondering if I just look fat and so nobody wants to say anything at all, but it's making me feel kind of bad about myself at this point . The only comments I get are grom.coworkers and people who I told that I was pregnant... those " how are you feeling?" Every day questions.

I don't get those neither. Only from a few family and close friends. I've only received a few congratulations/ good lucks from some ppl but that's it.

I think there's been a growing awareness culturally that some women don't appreciate unsolicited comments regarding their bodies even if the comments are nice and pregnancy-related. I personally think it's sweet when someone comments on my bump but I've been out with friends who have responded to others commenting on my bump as rude or imposing. Overall, my guess is people are just trying to be more sensitive around the subject in general, which is never bad. Don't feel bad about yourself, you're growing human life! What could be more beautiful? :)

I agree with pp. I think some people are intimated. I've been scared to say something to people before unless I knew them well. My bump is huge and I am getting some comments from random strangers which actually surprises me that people are so comfortable saying something. I live in an area where southern hospitality is a thing, so that may have something to do with it. I remember when I lived on the west coast there wasn't much conversations with strangers.
Don't get down on yourself, embrace your bump.

I only got comments in public when I wore shirts saying that I was pregnant-- I think people are just trying to be more sensitive. (Which is good bc I have a friend who is not pregnant and has been asked several times by strangers if she was!!)

I think I would rather this situation than being told "how big I am" "you look ready to pop" "are you having twins" mostly by men by the way. For me it's incredibly uncomfortable a little boy told me I had a fat tummy. So yeah I'd rather people not say anything. I mean total strangers approaching you just to give you some half ass compliment hidden inside an insult. It's probably 80 to 20 that I get insulted more than complimented.

My female coworkers make comments on how I am not getting big at all. But I have a male coworker who says I'm getting big. And everyone always asks me how I'm feeling and when am I due, how much longer do I have left. It gets kind of annoying, I would rather have your situation.

We have an almost 2 year old and I'm 36 weeks. I get comments "you know how they're made right"
And I get "wow you're about to pop"
