LMAO, Angela - I know a lot of the people where I used to live are what you'd call big girls, but only seeing 3 girls skinnier than me whilst shopping at 7m pregnant had me almost dancing in the streets!
It took me until I was about six and a half months gone for people not to express dismay when they heard I was leaving work and ask why... at least now there's no hiding it. Well, or so I thought... at 33w I still had someone not realise I was pg because "well, you are sat down".
My current favourite is "well, it's all bump isn't it! You've not put on weight elsewhere" - where did they think I was going to get a bump? Do you get pregnant knees? Pregnant armpits? Oh, or "It's a boy. My daughter was pregnant a little while ago; I went to see her and she was washing up, one look at her backside and I knew it was a girl because it was huge." I am so glad that woman didn't guess girl for me!
