To the lady in the store today who gave me a sideways glance, got caught looking at my hugeness and laughed to say, "Almost"...that is the same as saying what I know you are thinking which is, 'Damn she's huge'.
To the man, three aisles over in the same shopping trip who said, "Wow, you're gonna have this baby right here in the store. We're gonna have to call for a clean up on aisle 10", I see your intended joke, but I didn't really find it funny.
To my Mom, who, immediately following that trip, said "You're getting big, Mija" (as she rubbed my Buddha belly)...Sigh. Yes, I know.
Do women who are 9 months pregnant normally hide in a cave somewhere?

Yes, they do. That's the only explanation I can come up with. I hated the end, with everybody staring and commenting. Now they just watch me struggling with my two kids and tell me I look like I have my hands full. That's my new favorite comment from strangers... :)
Come to think of it, I can't remember the last time I came face-to-face with someone who was nine months pregnant (or visibly pregnant at all). Weird.
WOW. I'm so surprised by people's behavior. I honestly can't remember if I had that experience. You look great with a baby inside! Funny expression on your face!
