So this past week I have had three home care clients ask if I am pregnant (I just reached 7 weeks last Saturday). I just couldn't say yes cause it was way to early to tell people especially clients. So they felt bad they called me fat ....but really in reality they did cause most (or all lol) is bloat. Sigh...maybe my body is getting a jump start on things.
So anyone else get that question yet?

Oh poor you! I was thankful that people used discretion even though they wondered until I was out the first trimester and ready to spill the beans. I do interact with a range of people in the course of my job but didn't get questions to my face until much later. This is why I think you should never ask that question! Hopefully you can laugh about it in a few months when you do share your news!

Oh, that's annoying. I must have put out a don't-go-there vibe, because even though they suspected, they never asked.
-
Eek! Are you wearing form fitting clothes or anything to give them that impression?

My dentist asked me when I was pregnant with LO. It was right before my 12 week apt, and he knew that I already had a miscarriage so he knew I was TTC. We were at a healthcare thing at my temple and he pointed to my belly, and I said no, finished up some small talk, walked away, and cried. People don't usually show so early so I knew it was just me being fat.
Then a couple of weeks later I had a dentist apt and I had to tell him I really was pregnant.

It may not necessarily be bloat. Some women just give off a vibe when they're pregnant, maybe the glow? And some people just seem to have a pregnancy radar. Don't worry!

My mom and sister ask me all the time, so even though they asked me last weekend, I think it was just their regular (annoying) habit. Although, my sister lives with us, and I think she's started to pick up on things like no wine or iced tea and my fatigue. She told me she had a dream I was pregnant, and I think she was trying to gauge my reaction.
Man... don't people know to just keep these kind of questions to themselves!
Edited to add: One of my students is in a nursing program, and she asked me if I was pregnant. She said she's the "Baby Whisperer" which definitely threw me off! Of course, I had to deny, deny, deny!

given that these are people that knew you pre-pregnancy, I don't think they were calling you fat in any way. maybe they just noticed you look different, whether it be that your body composition has changed or you have that pregnancy glow!
I've been asked by several people if i'm pregnant, basically every time i turn down a drink. I'm always caught off guard and feel like i give it away every time
i'm not showing yet, but i do think my suddenly enormous boobs could raise some questions!

@LindsayInNYC: nope wearing scrubs...so no form what so ever lol
@artbee: awww that sucks! Especially in public
They are elderly so they don't have much of a filter lol. The people that have said it to me see me about once a week to every 2 weeks.
