[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is another way to look at this comment, as in, "When you came in, you looked really slender, so I'm surprised to see that you are wearing maternity pants given how small your baby bump is." That might actually be more likely, because if you looked big from a distance, she wouldn't have been surprised to see maternity pants and would be less likely to say something. In general, 16 weeks seems a tid on the early side, but certainly not unheard of, and why be uncomfortable or risk stretching out your regular pants?[/quote]

Good point. [i]Anyone [/i]can put their foot in their mouth. I walked into a meeting with my closest pal at work--first person I told about my pregnancy, mom of 2, is handing down tons of stuff to us, great friend all around--and she said "You look so fat!" I know what she MEANT, she hadn't seen me in a while and I've gone from looking passably normal to definitely pregnant in that time, but it just came out all wrong on her part. She was probably more embarrassed than I was.[/quote]
