Yeah, Jeff's right, I get it all the time. Apparently I'm even bigger than I feel! (is that possible!) The really demoralizing thing is that it's been happening for months now ("no, I'm NOT due next week--I've got 4 months left!"). And continues (the people at the bank today, too.) I wonder if it's just that any time anybody sees an obviously pregnant woman, they just assume that the baby's almost due? Or maybe it's just me (being short does not help things.)
Interestingly enough on the flip side of that, I had a few awkward encounters early on with acquaintances who didn't ask or mention anything, though I felt like I was already showing and pretty obvious. I understand that side of things though, you don't want to ask only to find out the person isn't preggers at all! Another friend of mine has THAT happen to her all the time...strangers asking if she's pregnant when she's not (and she's not a big person at all--it's very odd.)
