Has anyone else noticed strangers

Giving your belly a double take?
Or is it just mebecause i apparently look like I'm about to birth?
I have noticed aserious increase in people looking at me- which I hate. Because i hate people. And because they don't smile, so I assume they are judging me.

Re: Has anyone else noticed strangers

I haven't gotten the double take, not that I'm aware of at least. But people look at me a lot more than I ever noticed before. I don't want to imagine what they're thinking when they look at me.

2 people today said "any day now, huh??" with that stupid look that stupid people have when they think they know everything. 2 more months fkers. Chat Icon

So did you see knocked up, when Katherine Heigl is on the red carpet and someone is like- "Oh, you're about to pop, huh?" And she says "2 more months".

LOL I don't know if I should answer this one...I have a lil of a self conscious problem...I told my husband I hate walking to the train cause I think everyone is looking at me and he was like wow thank God you have no self esteem issues?

I think we can just be feeling not at our best and it's probably in our heads!

It's so funny you asked this because I was going to post the same question! I'm only 10 weeks and have noticed this for the very first time today. Several people here at work looked me in the face and I gradually saw their eyes glance down at my belly.

A co-worker of mine whom has no clue I am pg actually asked me if I was expecting, I thought that was rude. What if I wasn't? Chat Icon

totally isn't- clear as day double take at my belly. I love having a belly- I think I am the hottest thing ever right now. But like, smile after I catch you. Don't just grunt and look away.

Yeah I got that a lot during my first pregnancy, I would even have people come up to me asking me what I was having and when I told them we weren't finding out, they would start quessing--lol I started getting looks with this pregnancy now too, and people saying what a cute belly I have, I'm like thankgod I'm pregnant--lol

Re: Has anyone else noticed strangers

I feel like I get the staredown. I don't mind it if they're focused on my belly. It's when their eyes travel further north to the chestal area is when I get angry! Chat Icon I give them a nasty look - they probably think I'm a hormonal pregnant b1otch! Chat Icon

i got smiles with the 2T, but at work i got the pizzed look with the wisper and some who just talked really loud about me so that i heard them.. Im an xray/mammo tech and they would say some hurtful things b/c i was working while prego. especially heard it from the crankie old wrinkle bags. Oh how i wanted to squeeze their boob until it fell off.

Yeah that was great. There was a deleted scene also (I always watch those on my DVDs to see what I am missing) where she was interviewing someone who kept asying she was huge and calling her a house. Chat Icon Chat Icon

Why are people so stupid? I swear, I don't understand how this people don't trip over their own tongues. Idiots are everywhere and common sense isn't common.

Yeah, I definitely notice people staring. Earlier in the pregnancy, I wasn't used to it, and I thought they were rude or there was something stuck on my clothing, you know that kind of thing.

Sometimes people will smile, but most of the time they don't.
