This is the perfect post to follow the last that included my belly picture.
Ok so my MIL (mother-in-law) and I headed out for lunch with my SIL (sister-in-law...got it now?) and we had a great time at Panera. Then my MIL and I headed out for a super, awesome, fun afternoon shopping.
After finishing up at Babies R Us (BIG SMILES from me!) we headed off to Macy's so I could spend some Motherhood Maternity gift cards my MIL had given me apon arriving in Virginia. They have a section in the Macy's out here. The sales lady was amazingly attentive and I had the entire "secret" maternity dressing room to myself. One of the best shopping experiences ever! The saleslady kept encouraging me to go a size up from what I was grabbing because I still had several months to go. I was slightly upset because I think I'm huge already and can't imagine myself bigger - though I know it's inevitable and I should really get over it. So, anyway, after realizing I do in fact need the larger size and being there for about 30 minutes, the saleslady asks me this:
"Are you sure you aren't having twins?"
I burst out laughing. What else could I do? She persisted with the question asking if we'd had an ultrasound yet to be sure. She honestly found me too big for the number of weeks that I am. She was nice about it and I didn't take it insultingly (is that a word?) but I've been chewing on it and chewing on it...
am I really that big all of a sudden???
I think people are probably shocked at how big you are because they have no idea how itty bitty you were to begin with. Don't be insulted, you look fantastic!
