Pregnant after a Loss

Not sure how to feel about this...

I will be 13 wks on Wednesday. I know that my stomach is sticking out more, but I wouldn't say I look pg. I'm still down 1 lb, but when I measured my stomach around the belly button last week, I had gained 3".
I went into my old store today (I'm a store manager for a large grocery store chain, and they move managers around a lot) because it's closer to my house than the store I work at and 2 people asked me if I was KU! I told them yes, because I have come out at work and FB, but I was surprised they asked! Again, I don't think it is obvious that I'm pg, so I think it's pretty ballsy of them to ask.
I am trying to tell myself that it is just because they know me and know what I normally look like. I would be kinda embarrassed if people thought I was showing already.

Re: Not sure how to feel about this...
You could always reply "Nope, why do you ask?" and watch them squirm before you put them out of their misery and say "just kidding".
I got my first stranger "when are you due" question last week, and I have to admit, it took me back a little bit. But, just remember that we have the most awesome truthful answer to that questions: Yes! I AM pregnant (not fat)!!!

Um, I'm too tired to take one of today
I've been running errands all day. But here's one from last week.
I had a lady today say, "OK I have to ask, because I've made the mistake before, but are you or are you not pregnant?" I had to laugh because it's REALLY obvious for me now.
I agree with PP, at least you have the best answer in the world.
Plus, even if you "start to show" early (bloat is being a biznatch) you can always say you're further along. No one knows your dates but you. 
Sorry if that's a FH thing to say, I just try to look on the bright side of that one.
You look soooo cute!!

Hon you are just too cuuuuuuuuute! That's a baby bump alright!
I love you! Ha ha ha....
No really, I started getting questions at about 13 or 14 weeks from nosy coworkers. Still can't believe people ask other women if they are pregnant if they are not 100% sure. I could never do that. I am very short and petite though so the bloat was out of control and then I popped right out once the bloat went away. You look super cute!!! I love the week stickers!!! So cute!

Ok thanks girls. I think I'm just so nervous about all this....the whole thought of "showing" is just nuts to me....
I need a paper bag to breathe in or something....

OMG! you look absolutely adorable. Personally, I don't ask people if they are KU even if I see a little bump. I guess everyone is different.
