BlairWaldorf · May 2009

I must still look like I have a dangerously revolting love affair with Twinkies.

adharper2615 · May 2009

:::drools::: twinkkkkies. yum. the end.

Pennylane824 · May 2009

I haven't either. I think some people have thought about it, but then second guessed themselves because they didn't want to be wrong. I've seen a few obviously pregnant women and haven't said anything for that same reason- I just have this insane fear that they aren't knocked up and I'll feel like an ass.

RD'sgirl · May 2009

Don't worry girly, it will happen. I just started having strangers comment and ask questions like a week or two ago.

majors31 · May 2009

i'm this many weeks ::points down at ticker:: and still haven't gotten any comments. my boss says i still look a little like i drink too much beer on a regular basis.

jennabee13 · May 2009

I got my first straight on glare at the belly yesterday. It nearly resulted in a throat punch.

SharonWantsABaby · May 2009

I just had my first (and only!) stranger comment the other week.

I think people are afraid of hurting your feelings just in case, which I guess is nice, but I bet they'll be all over your belly soon.

ArmyBride0604 · May 2009

The stranger comments aren't particularly enjoyable when they're accompanied by said stranger diving for your tummy. I have yet to work up the nerve to stop the tummy dive so I suffer in silence. I seem to have no problem being sarcastic and snappy with friends but strangers bring out the polite little sweetheart in me that all but tells them to rub away as I silently seethe.

I've definitely been showing for a few weeks, but I just got my first "stranger comments" this week. I figure now I'm showing enough that they're not worried I'm just "fat"...haha. Last night at Applebees - the waitress was going over the drink specials - and was only looking at my friend (who is also pg, but JUST found out)....then the waitress looks at me and says "Sorry, you can't have any".

iris427 · May 2009

You will soon! Smile

BlairWaldorf · May 2009

lol, I guess it is better than people diving at the belly!

I was talking about how we were having a boy at work & my coworker looks over & says, "Are you pregnant?" I said, "Ummm...yeah. Half-way done cookin' the little guy."

jonsdeedee · May 2009

I didn't get any until about 2 weeks ago. And since then I got about 6 most that go on to say how small I am for 6 months.

MrsV092207 · May 2009

I got my first stranger comment around 22 weeks. It was later than I expected too.. but I think until you are REALLY showing, most people (especially strangers) don't want to offend you in case you really did just have one too many Twinkies.

Even what I'm wearing today makes me look less PG than I am, if at all.

t.bird · May 2009

they'll start- and then they don't stop. gosh.

alexisz523 · May 2009

I got my first comment 2 weeks ago and was so excited I didn't look like I drank too much anymore and was actually carrying a baby Smile

S&R2007 · May 2009

I haven't gotten any either- and my belly is big. DH did make a joke at Lowes when they asked if we needed help putting our new lawnmower into the car and he said no I'll have my pregnant wife do it- they laughed and didn't look me over to confirm so I don't know if that means they were wondering already.

I do agree at least strangers aren't touching my belly!

ivs112 · May 2009

I haven't gotten any stranger comments either but I get tons of belly stares. It seems like everywhere I go, people are staring at my belly! It makes me feel a little uncomfortable...

jenns123 · May 2009

Feel lucky if they haven't commented that means they haven't touched either!

Strangers, Please stop touching my belly- yes there is a baby in there, no you can't feel it!

alexisz523 · May 2009

P.S. I only get comments if I am wearing a tighter shirt. If I am wearing a babydoll tank or a dress I just look fat Smile

rcollier_17 · May 2009

ha! Lets talk 5 weeks people. That's when my first stranger comment came. Talk about some nasty bloat! I must have looked like I was about to explode if a stranger was asking me about my belly!

gumiberg · May 2009

I am not a fan of stranger comments since I am not a fan of strangers talking to me.

TarheelsInNJ · May 2009

Someone gave up their seat on the bus for me the other day. I couldn't believe it! And I felt a little guilty - I mean, I'm only 4 months, I don't really need a seat. However, it was a woman who has a child and understands. It was really sweet!

irys09 · May 2009

I haven't either.

Lots of strange looks though!

Mandalyn8 · May 2009

LOL! I have been getting those for two weeks and it makes me so self conscious!

jen-and-ryon · May 2009

I haven't got any either. They must think I like to eat alot, or maybe I give off some don't talk to me vibe.

lolz.

tsoyster · May 2009

I've not had any comments either. I'm still not really showing, but I'm a small person and I know for a fact that people are taking second looks when they see me. I used to be a newspaper reporter and was out in the community all the time, and people just kinda give me funny looks. I, however, have a love affair with Jello pudding pops.

DanielsWife · May 2009

I've gotten a few stranger comments - but I'm not showing enough to keep the old people from wanting to run me over in grocery stores.

Seriously, the old people here HATE young people, LOL.?

notelizabeth · May 2009

don't worry, i haven't either.

of course, i've gotten plenty of co-irker comments that, while not meant badly, totally gave me complexes.

yes, i am apparently giving birth to a turkey. thanks.

deb2126 · May 2009

Aww, I feel your pain! People just started notice I was pregnant THIS week! I figure they must have thought I was just getting fat the past few months
