Good luck to the ladies in the 2ww! FXd we´ll be reading your good news in early April and there´ll be some little Christmas babies on here!
I´ve come on for a bit of a moan. Sorry in advance! I met up with DHs family for a meal on Sunday and we met in a bar where they were sat with lots of their friends. I walked in and I swear that nobody looked at my face as all eyes went directly to my (lack of) bump. Cue the comments about "Where is it?", "Where is he hiding?", "Are you sure there´s one in there", "You can´t be almost 16 weeks gone", etc etc and then DH´s dad shouts to them all that I´m fooling them all and I´m not really pregnant at all. I felt like such an idiot as they all sat there laughing. Anyway we sat down to eat and DH´s auntie (who is such a know-all) said something about my boobs being bigger. I told her that they haven´t changed at all up to now and she told me and the rest of the table that I must be wrong because EVERY woman´s first sign that they are pregnant is that their boobs get bigger. So...everyone starts to stare at my boobs just to see if they do look bigger or not. Then his auntie once again decides to tell the whole table that it´s very strange that I´m not bigger as slim girls show earlier. I told her that she was wrong and bump size has more to do with where the baby is lying and the mum´s stomach muscles but she was having none of it! I hate being the centre of attention and it´s even worse when everyone´s staring at my body only to tell me that things aren´t right or normal with it. I just wanted to crawl into a hole.
Although I know lots of people don´t show until later on it is starting to worry me a little as my body seriously isn´t changing at all and I´m almost 4 months gone. I really don´t need comments about "how weird" my pregnancy is!
Sorry for the rant, but DH is so defensive about his family that I can´t complain to him at all. No replies needed - I just needed to complain to somebody!!
