or
when someone says "If you hadn't mentioned you were pg, I wouldn't have known." (this was only last Friday)
The first comment came from someone who lived near me and KNEW I was only having one. The second comment happened when I was at the post office. I was right up at the counter and the woman was trying to figure out why I looked different. I said it might be because I'm no longer wearing bangs or it might be because I weigh a lot less despite my big preggo belly. Her response was the second comment above.
Ugh...hearing that was enough to deflate my ego...and here I thought I was looking pretty good. It felt like she was saying I just looked fatter. You decide...here is the picture I took on Sunday, September 25th.
Also, I finished a shower gift for another friend who is also due December. The blanket is receiving blanket size...perfect for the car seat or stroller. The hat and booties should fit the average baby up until about 4 or 5 months old. Would you like this for your baby?

I'd say someone just doesn't know a pregnant belly when they see one. That's a definite preggo belly if I've ever seen one and you can really tell that you haven't gained/lost weight with this and gained nothing but belly. Just consider it a goofy pregnant remark (and they probably feel bad for having said it now) and be happy. I think you look great!
By the way, beautiful present you have there! Yep, I'd like one, if I were expecting, that is. :-)

Hmm, first I'd LOVE that blanket, the hat...hmm...those booties are so adorable they nealy kill me though.
As for the belly, I'd say you CLEARLY look pregnant. There is only one other thing you look like, my grandmother had a similar belly, but she also had no hair and was dying of ovarian cancer. So since I think it's clear you're not on death's door, that is OBVIOUSLY a pregnant belly!
Well honey, you DEFINITELY look pregnant to me! I meant to tell you earlier, I think you are looking AWESOME! Pregnancy definitely suits you sweetie!
Love,

That person at the post office is nuts. I think it's quite obvious that's a baby you're carrying, not a basketball or just some random belly weight. Duh. People truly are clueless...don't listen to 'em.
As for the receiving blanket, hat and booties--they're adorable and make a great gift. Of course, I could only use the blanket as it's too warm where I am (even in winter) for the hat and booties!
I love the blanket set!! It is so cute!!! You are so talented and look so gosh darn cute!! Don't listen to what the "outside world" says. You look great!!
