No Baby Yet?
Today, THREE PEOPLE on three separate occasions have seen me around town and said something like, “No baby yet?” or “Must be any day now,” or “I thought you’d have a baby by now.”
HELLO!?!?!?!?!?! I have eight weeks left until my due date!
And even worse, ALL THREE PEOPLE followed up their statements with some comment about how huge I look. “You look ready to pop!” or “But you’re so big!” or “Wow… it’s going to be a long couple of months with a belly like that!”
HELLO (again)!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I told Josh I want to make a t-shirt with a little dry erase spot on it that says “Baby due in x days. If you comment on my size, you will receive a swift kick in the shins.” Or something like that.
I came home upset that people would say things like that. I analyzed my size in the mirror. I think I look fine (pic is me @ 32 weeks). I’m scared about how uncomfortable I am now and that I still have two months left to endure. But, I am happy that I get to endure them in the comfort of my own home.
Now I just have to think of clever comebacks for people who have no tact.
