then the cat LEPT out of the bag

A good friend who happens to also be an ex boyfriend called and surprised us by telling us he was in town. (Now very confidently one of the gayest men I know.) We went to go meet him at a bar downtown. 

I'd be in the bar all of 15 seconds when he gets this shocked look on his face and says, "oh my god. you are knocked up."

 I blubbered out something that wasn't convincing at all, which he immediately ignored and then looked at my husband and hugged him. 

Apparently he could "sense" it. Whatever the F that means. Guess I'm going to need to call my mom tomorrow before the grapevine gets to her first. So much for 12 weeks...

    lol I know how you feel. A few people at my work pretty know because I can't go into rooms with patients who have influenza. Tonight my charge nurse found out and said "well I'm going to put a note at the desk so people know you can't go in those rooms. Sorry if it outs you." Gee thanks lady, I was trying to keep it a secret but that is obviously not going to happen.

    I had a friend who could also call pregnancies super early...even when you weren't expecting people to be pregnant at all. I have no idea how some people do it. I'm glad you are being a good sport about getting outed. :)

    I think it's kind of cute that your friend knows you so well.

    We've already told our parents and our two best friends.  I'm a terrible secret keeper, anyway.

    I know you are upset but it is kind of funny. I just thought, you did meet at a bar and he may have figured it out because you weren't drinking. I would probably stay away from bar situations next time. lol.

    In some ways it's kind of a relief. People finding out takes a lot of pressure off of the act. I just want to keep it as tight as possible as long as possible because we already planned how we are telling everyone and I already spent all the money!

    Yeah, the guy I work with had that same intuition. he told me "girl, you're pregnant" three days BEFORE I knew I was...

    My granny guessed it because my eyes looked pregnant. And my dad did to after my horrible showing at Christmas. I was sick and tried playing it off as a cold. Mobile bumping sorry if this looks weird.
