I'm so embarrassed!

I'm just about 6 weeks along. For obvious reasons, I don't want to tell people at work just yet. My belly has blown up over the last week. I know 99% of it is bloating, but it's bad enough that I can't comfortably wear some of my clothes. I just got a couple of looser fitting outfits for work to hide it. I'm petite (barely 5'2") & people at work joke with me a lot about how small & "skinny" I am so I didn't want anyone to notice.

Well, today someone came up to me & said "You're pregnant aren't you? Don't lie I can tell!" I was so embarrassed! Obviously, I am, but the little belly isn't baby yet Now I just feel fat. I was pretty obviously pregnant by the time I was 14 or 15 weeks with my daughter since I'm small & carried all in front, so I expected to show a bit early this time around, but this is just embarrassing! I guess my loose clothing isn't going to stop the office gossip.

been there it stinks but most people don't really know that it is bloat and not baby! my boss insists that my tummy is all baby, but i know better at only 10 weeks.

i got a few babydoll shirts for work and that helped a little... hope you get that real baby belly soon!

The person who said it should be embarrassed! I don't know why people say these stupid things!! Duh, if you wanted her to know you would have told her! Don't be upset it's just bloat we all have it lol
