You just can't win ...

I know I am overly sensitive about comments about my size when I am pregnant, but I just want to say that you can't win with me, no matter what you say.

When I was pregnant with Drew, one of my friends at church was pregnant with twins. She was due a couple of weeks after me (we ended up having our children on the same day!) but I got tired of people looking at her and then looking at me and asking me if I was sure I wasn't the one having twins. Nope, just one baby for me. And yes, I know, I gained a lot of weight.

This time, with only eight weeks until my due date, I look (and feel) huge, but people have been telling me that I look so cute and that I'm "finally" starting to show a little bit. Just how big did they think I was to start with? I have been showing for quite a while now!

So, my suggestion is to just refrain from commenting on a pregnant woman's size ... you won't win, no matter what you say.
