28 weeks UPDATE: Ok, here's a conversation from tonight.
"You must be due any day."
"Nope. May."
Silence.
"Well, it must be the first of May."
"May 16."
Her jaw drops; but she continues to speak...
"Whoa .... whoa ... Are you having twins?"
"Nope. I'm having a girl."
"Well, maybe she'll come out weighing as much as she (pointing to Avery) does now."
WHAT!?!? This other woman is a mother of a toddler. She knows better. She had to have been intentionally being mean - I can't think of any other explanation. If any other "smart" women make any more "smart" comments, they will be blogged about. That's my warning.

Mom and I went shopping this weekend - which led to many gazes from strangers and conversations with sales reps about the size of my baby belly.
It began to be slightly humorous. The most common one started like this:
"When are you due?"
"May"
"Oh wow, you still have a ways to go."
"Uh, yeah."
I laughed the most at this one:
"You must be due any day!"
"Nope. May."
"Oh, well, you look like you feel ok."

hehehe.. I am certain that people just don't THINK before they speak. You look great. At least the baby looks like it is just in your belly and not hanging out in your arms, chin, butt, ankles, and... a little under the eyes! :D
ditto to Raina!!
You look FANTASTIC!! I agree with the pp's.. just a perfect baby belly going on there! I had to LOL about the first comment! My thoughts exactly!

jessicaleewilde at gmail dot com) yay!
Love the pic. You look so cute. I haven't seen any pics with you and the baby bump, so it was fun to see it posted. :)
Hello!! You cut your hair OFF?!?! Very cute! When did you do this?
About the belly... crazy how different you can look with from one baby to your next. Huh? When people mention your belly I would just say "I'm not pregnant, I just have a big belly" and just make them feel like crap! It's funny.
OK...You look amazing. It is just because you are so tiny everywhere else and then have this baby. You look great though. Love your hair.
i think you look BEAUTIFUL! and of course i agree with everyone else...if you would just gain a little weight everywhere else like a normal pregnant lady! (wink, wink:) you look awesome!!!
