One. More. Person...

If one more person asks me when my baby is due, I'm going to flip out.
I'M NOT PREGNANT.
And dont retort with "are you sure?"
Yes I'm sure. THanks.

3 times in the past couple of weeks. I don't even have a belly that looks remotely like there is a baby in there! Apparently I'm "glowing". No sweetie, that's just makeup.

Done venting.
Anyone else want to vent too? Has someone said something to you that just really irritates the crap out of you? Go for it, vent away =)

    I see that you have a wedding picture as your profile picture. Have you recently gotten married? This is more than likely why people are asking. They are expecting it and if they even remotely see a tiny belly that is what they will assume.

    *insert funny retort here... comes up with nothing*

    Never had that though i've wished i did. I think pregnancy is a nicer thing to be mistaken for then a whale D: lol seriously.

    That and if people thought i was pregnant they'd be giving up their seat on the bus for me >:)

    Interesting. Maybe it's they type of clothes you are wearing? Do you wear a lot of shirts/dresses with empire waists? It's commonly a cut for Maternity wear, but can cross over into plus size, etc.

    Yeah haha. The good retorts are always questionable haha. Just get really weird and be like... "I didn't think I was but now i'm worried that it must have been aliens... omg! they said they used protection!" Then flail and leave them in the dust haha

    Hmm, that's quite possible. I do wear a few, just because they are comfy to me!

    I try not to. I think that's why I posted something, because I knew some of the funnies would help me laugh it off!

    I was talking with a personal trainer at my gym when a young lady walked by whom the PT knew. The PT goes "Ohmygosh I haven't seen you in ages! When are you due?". Okay. This chick DID NOT look pregnant to me. She was skinny but all her fat was in her middle area (belly) but not even close to looking pregnant. Needless to say the PT looked like this :blushing: when the girl adamantly said "no!'. I felt bad for both parties. :ohwell:

    Just let it roll off your back. It's just one of those things that happen to the best of us and I'm sure the other person was mortified as well :laugh:

    It really is the most awkward situation! Don't people know to just not assume these things? I don't even ask, no matter how pregnant they look, I wait for them to say something

    Yup...that's what it is. A tummy disguised under an empire waist very much looks like pregnancy. So...married in June...when are you going to have some babies?

    I usually go with it's a food baby and I'm expecting to give birth in the toilet tomorrow... shuts em right up!
  • Way back when I got the "when are you due?" question I really really, really wanted to say "no, I have a tumor" but I thought the Karma would come back to me :wink: , so I just told them the truth, "About 6 weeks ago".
