Starting off with a vent...

If I have one more person ask me "How are you feeling?" in an extremely sympathetic voice, or "You must be tired, not long to go!" then look surprised when I say I'm only 26wks, which is inevitably followed by "But you're so big!", I am going to explode!!

Then there is the discussion/speculation on how big this baby is going to be

Yes, I know I've popped right out the last few weeks, but really, I'm not even into the third trimester. What is the deal???

So my question is, am I appearing bigger because it is my second? Has this happened to anyone else?

Last check I was measuring a little bit ahead but not much - why do I apparently look like I'm about to give birth???

Arghhh!
