During those 9 months, strangers will become pediatricians, fortune tellers, and birthing professionals. They\u2019ll be able to tell you the baby\u2019s sex based on how you\u2019re carrying, or how much hair your baby will have based on your heartburn*, but are strangely unable to determine just how exhausting it can be to listen to other people\u2019s constant comments on your body.<\/p>\n
