5 weeks and got my first congrats at work

in 1st Trimester

I was getting my classroom ready this morning (only 4 1/2 days after today!!!) and another teacher comes into me and says "Congrats!  You look so cute and round." 

My response...."What are you talking about?" 

Her response....."Pregnant?"

My response...."Crap!"

I am wearing non-fitted shirts and still people are noticing the bloat....I am a pretty petite person (5'6''- 118 lbs) so I guess the gut that I am getting is out there.  Hopefully I can make it just a few more days with my students so no questions get asked!

    Wow, that is bold.  I would never congratulate someone unless they announced it first.

    I would have so played it off as "pregnant? what are you talking about" just to mess with her. Just to get back at her for being rude!

    Wow you are the same size as me. I am shocked anyone would make that assumption because I cannot imagine you are sporting that much of a belly.

    I came out with it early at work for a couple of reasons 1) so there wouldn't be wispering about me and 2) I work in a theme park, and I had to let them know b/c I of the type of work I do (in the heat sometimes, climbing, lifting heavy stuff)
