I must have a bump now because...
someone finally gave up their seat on the subway yesterday!
I am 17w5d and was on a full 6 train yesterday. I always put my hand on my belly to give off "i'm pregnant not fat" vibes but so far nobody has ever offered me a seat -- only stares.
Yesterday a lot of people stared but avoided eye contact (mainly men) but one woman likely in her 20s offered her seat. I guess I'm officially pregnant

Awww! I remember the first time someone offered their seat to me, I was so excited! It will almost always be a woman who offers it to you - men become narcoleptic when you're in their presence, or really engrossed in Time Out New York or something.

Re: I must have a bump now because...
im 25w and JUST last week two days in a row people started giving up there seats for me!!! one day was a guy and the other day was girl. i think its more because i was wearing lighter clothes or an open jacket where my belly was VERY visible, as opposed to all winter in my heavy coat where it couldve just been fluff or fat!!

yay! i only think it counts if I'm not wearing a coat, because you can never tell if someone is pregnant in a winter coat. yesterday (and a few other weekends) i was just wearing a sweater, no coat.

Re: I must have a bump now because...
Lol, thats how you know when your finally showing. I was about 5 months when someone finally offered me a seat on the 4 train. Funny thing is I didn't think I was showing that big yet but I guess so.

I agree!
And that is great!! It is exciting when people can really tell you are pregnant without having to say anything, I love it!!
