I just ignore it until I'm sure or I'll slip something in about my pregnancy and see if that brings it out!

Everything seems to offend someone these days, so I tend to err on the side of saying nothing.

@bluestriped bee: That’s my main technique. I always get “feelings” about people and cannot rest until they’re confirmed (and I’m almost always right!) so I’ve found lots of creative ways to draw the news out haha. Or you can always watch to see if the bump grows lol.

Never! Its amazing though how many people asked me when I was JUST starting to show.

Nooo! I really wouldn't want to make that mistake. I've heard crazy stories talking to my friends about people who have mistaken them as pregnant when they clearly are not! Not even close to having a bloated bump.
I'll always smile at someone who is very pregnant and if it's someone I know then they'll usually talk about their pregnancy first.

I don't say anything until they bring it up. I've been asked before by a rude coworker and it was mortifying.

NEVERRRRRR.. I would never say anything unless.. well, never.

I do the same thing, I bring up something concerning my baby, or pregnancy if the conversation allows and usually people are more than willing to offer up their information since people love to talk about themselves

I ignore it. My mom had a friend that looked like she was 7 months pregnant all the time, no matter how much she exercised or dieted. She hated people asking her if she was pregnant.

I've had three people at work this week ask me if I'm pregnant. I told a handful of people, but these were people who I don't interact with much, so I was a little surprised they were so blunt since I'm only 14.5 weeks and just now starting to show.

I never say anything unless I know they are pregnant. If I think they might be, I might try to talk about babies or something to get them to say something but unless I'm 100% sure, I wouldn't risk it.

well unless she's holding her belly or something to make it obvious.

Ignore!

I usually ignore it. However, one time I said something to a co-worker because of the type of shirt she was wearing (starting wearing empire waist/baby doll type shirts when she hadn't before) she denied it but then announced later that she was expecting. The timing means when I asked she was pregnant just not telling folks but I'll never do that again, I felt so embarrassed when she said no.

Ignore! No way would I risk a foot in mouth situation!
