O/T Shocked & Stunned!

Jo.1981, 2 May, 2008 at 13:46 Posted on Planning 0 12

A lady I work with had just gone into labour and one of the academics I work with is sitting in the office completly out of the blue she asks when my baby is due! I know I've put on a little weight and I suffer really badly from IBS so I can sometimes look bloated but didn't think I look pregnant! I feel like I have been slapped in the face! Not sure who is more embarressed! [:I]?

    That's happened to me before... and i'm not even THAT big..
    i'm a size 16, but i'm 6 foot 2... so pretty average size (over my rather long height!!)

    i was sat on a plane and a lady leant over the aisle and patted my stomach and congratulated the HTB and I!!!!

    he was literally wetting himself laughing... i on the other hand was in a strop the whole flight!!

    I was only a 10 and I've got up to about a 12 but I'm on a lot of medication and it makes my appitite HUGE. I wear a big cardigan at work because generally I'm really cold all the time.

    That was how I felt when I went to prtugal in Feb. We were coming back and checking the bags into the airport when the Girl on the Check in Desk stopped me.
    Her : Excuse me madam, you are pregnant, no??
    Me: Umm NO☹️!]
    Her: Oh I am so sorry but you look pregnant, my apologies[:I]
    Me: No I am definately not?

    She then upgraded us for the embarrasment!?

    OMG!!!!! I can't believe that!!

    I've put a bit of weight on recently too (well, by a bit I mean I can't fit into any of my clothes and I've actually gone up 2 sizes and gained 1st 5lbs!!) but I hope no one thinks that I'm preggers when I'm most definitely not!! I'm just plain old chubby.?
