Good Comeback for Unsolicited Advice/Unwelcome Remarks

During pregnancy, there's bound to be family members, relatives and friends giving you unsolicited advice/unwelcome remarks which can be annoying right? 😅 Apart from "just ignore, don't bother" about them, anyone has any tried and tested good comeback response that prevents further irritation from them? That will really help, thanks!! 😄 [Unsolicited advice/Unwelcome remarks examples] - "Eh I heard cannot eat/drink XXX leh, if not will blahblahblah" (...when you have done your own research and it is OK to eat/drink XXX) - Speaks of some old wives' tale/superstition and insists that you follow it to be safe - "Eh how come your bump look so big/small at X month? My/my friend's bump wasn't like this leh" - "Wah finally pregnant ah! I waited so long! It's about time la, you both married for so long already, and you're not getting young also!" -- from the elders 😏

Best is don't give them topic to talk. I will just find a corner to rest. If you cannot see that i am tired then you need go reflect on yourself. Don't disturb a pregnant woman rest. Lol.
