*This is all in good fun. I really am not upset about the things people say mostly just amused. Sometimes I walk away a little surprised that especially woman forget what it is like to be pregnant and what you should and shouldn't say. I have been pregnant enough times that Hopefully someday I can remember what NOT to say. :) I am starting to get to the point in this pregnancy where I feel self conscience going out in public. Actually I was there about a week ago. I know I am huge, but why does everyone and their brother/mother/sister/father feel the need to point that out? I'm just wondering. I had an older guy in line behind me at wal-mart the other week say something about me looking like I had dropped (how in the world would he even know that since I had never seen him in my life?). I pretended I didn't hear him, but then he preceded to tell the cashier that he better hurry up and get me through the line because he wouldn't want me to go into labor. I just smiled. What are you supposed to say, "Well, just so you know I have 2 months left, so FAT change of me going into labor right now." :) Maybe I should start faking labor, see what kind of results I get from that...I'm only kidding! Bill always says I should turn around and tell the person that I'm not pregnant. But I could never actually do that.
I had a lady the other day say to me that she didn't get that big when she was pregnant. That's nice. I'm really happy for her. Although I think she maybe realized she shouldn't have said that because then she said that maybe it would have been better to be big because she looked just fat and not pregnant...but then she added, "Of course since I wasn't that big I didn't have all that stretched skin to deal with." Well, the recovery was almost there. Nice try though. :) Thanks for the reminder of all the stretched skin I will have to deal with soon. lol
Seriously though I am not upset by the amount of comments I get from people everywhere (mostly that I DO know) pointing out how big I am. I just don't like all the attention it draws to myself. I remember going through this with all my pregnancies, so I shouldn't really be surprised this time around. I know it's a conversation piece. It's like the obvious thing that is just there that people feel compelled to talk about.
Oh, one more thing... yes just in case you were wondering...I didn't take the kid's ball. And there really is only one baby in there...so don't even ask! :)
I will be taking pictures next week and posting them so you all can see just what I am talking about. :)
