Due date twins :) I really have noticed a difference in the last week. And my belly button is looking different too which is weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-204885 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 13:52:05 +0000 megjay18 204885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>this actually happened to me this morning. i'm 17w5d and the barista at starbucks said, "are you sure you and the baby don't want anything to eat today?" i'm assuming that he felt comfortable asking since i come in pretty often and am ordering decaf now. but it was a little shocking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-204882 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 13:49:39 +0000 LuLu Mom 204882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Meggo5: me too!!! I never say anythign unless I know for sure. I can't imagine the feeling if it were the opposite. I have had plenty of foot in mouth moments, and this is one I hope I never hav!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-204870 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 13:41:39 +0000 Periwinkle 204870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessieJo17: I always wonder what makes people comfortable to ask. Before being pregnant, I would usually just play dumb, even if someone was clearly pregnant! I was always afraid of offending, in case my guess was not accurate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-204193 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 08:45:45 +0000 LuLu Mom 204193@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At almsot 26 weeks it is just now happening for me. I have had people as me quesitons about the baby, they aren't scared anymore to offend me in case I was just getting thick! haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-204046 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 06:47:32 +0000 hilsy85 204046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Happened to me around the same time (about 21 weeks). A woman in a store asked me when I was due :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-203917 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 21:00:38 +0000 aMohror 203917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Meggo5: It happened to me first at a garage sale, I walked up with my husband and the were trying to sell us a "Daddy Diaper Bag" lol. I was definitely not expecting that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-203909 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 20:54:39 +0000 Periwinkle 203909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jesslc: We're just around the same time! I will be 22w on Monday. What a funny feeling it is to go from looking completely not pregnant to having complete strangers bring it up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-203901 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 20:50:51 +0000 SleepyMonkey 203901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hah that happened to me last week. Two men asked me if I wanted a seat on the subway and I was a little shocked that they actually noticed. I declined because I was only one stop but I has mixed feelings about it! I am 22 weeks tomorrow :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-guess-i-have-actually-popped#post-203889 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 20:36:41 +0000 Periwinkle 203889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After all of my complaining that I wasn't looking pregnant yet, I think I might have gotten my confirmation otherwise today.</p> <p>1) I stopped by the mall on my way home from work and had to walk through the food court. The man handing out samples of cheesesteak asked if I would like to try and when I declined, he commented that "the baby would really like the cheesesteak." No thanks :) </p> <p>2) While debating between a pair of shoes in a department store, the saleswoman told me that it might be a better choice to go with the more comfortable shoes, since it looked like (--&gt; pointing at my stomach) I might need something "sensible" soon.</p> <p>I have to admit that I kind of liked both comments, even though they both caught me off guard a bit!</p> <p>Have you had any experiences like this? </p>
