This time last year - I was 108lbs. My boyfriend rathers a more 'plump' woman. . .So I have put on weight since then of course. Currently I am around 115lbs. . .

A few months ago, November to December area I was 130lbs. And I am 5'2"! So I had more tummy then I would like. Still I was not fat. It was really just lower stomach pooch starting to be obvious even if I held in my stomach. . .

We were at a store and a guy actually asked me if I was pregnant. When I said: "No, and I am on my period THIS MINUTE." he cracked up. "I do not think you are fat or even chubby really. But I see you have a lil tummy there - and that's how my girlfriend and I figured out she was pregnant!"

Not the best argument on his part really. <___<

My boyfriend found it all cute though.

I normally don't ask if anyone's pregnant because I'm afraid of them not actually being so and offending them.

My roommate actually experienced this yesterday. She went to a dinner party with her organization and compltely pigged out to her max. Her father called her, and while they were talking, one of the officers came up, poked her stomach, and asked, "OH MY GOD, you're pregnant?!"

She ended up mouthing to the girl that she's on the phone with her dad. And the officer just took off at that point. ^^;;

Sagitar 04-13-2008 09:43 AM

personally, I'd never ask that question to anyone. if they are pregnant, they'll tell it if they want to :3

I HATE that question. I'm getting married and you can imagine how many people are asking me that question! :|

also, everytime I complain about my period acting odd, or my stomach hurting, feeling dizzy, my mom asks that question -.- bleh, dream on mommy.

`Kitami 04-13-2008 10:00 AM

I don't ask people that, because my mom warned me not to when I was a little girl. xD

However, I was at Babies-R-Us once with my nana, who has to ask that whenever she sees a pregnant woman, like it isn't obvious. =_=
Anyway, we were looking for something for my sister's baby shower and we saw this huge, obviously pregnant girl looking through some stuff.
So my nana goes up to her, all nice and smiles, and asks her if she was going to have a baby.

And she gives my grandma this really mean look and says "No. I'm just really fat and I like to collect baby clothes. What do you think?"
This hurt my grandma's feelings.

"If you're just really fat then I won't feel guilty for knocking you on your ass," I said.
I was in a bad mood that day anyway and since this chick didn't look much older than me anyway, I didn't have a problem with smarting off to her. I dun like people messing with my nana. :x

Arkeyla 04-13-2008 10:03 AM

Don't forget that even though what that girl said was rude, she was probably hormonal, and constant 'pregnant' comments when it should be obvious that you're carrying what equates to a watermelon in your gut can be annoying. She probably could have said it nicer though, but as a person who had great fun in saying 'no, I'm just fat' while I was pregnant to watch people's faces fall off, I probably wasn't the politest about it either.

`Kitami 04-13-2008 10:08 AM

I know. And I felt bad about saying what I said to her after the fact. Hehe. >.>

But, I mean, isn't it like a rule somewhere that you're supposed to be nice to sweet little old ladies? Even if they ask questions with completely obvious answers? xD

Arkeyla 04-13-2008 10:13 AM

I guess it is an unwritten rule - little old ladies deserve a bit of respect. Most of the grannies had gotten to me before I started getting sick of the comments though, so they were lucky. I like to think I would have tamed my narkiness and just said something like "No, am I? I wonder how that happened?" with a smile on my face, but chances are they would have gotten the same can-you-please-just-GO AWAY sort of attitude as others. I would have felt bad, but hormones are evil things and they demand obedience.

`Kitami 04-13-2008 10:49 AM

Hormones are evil. xD

Whenever I see someone pregnant, I have to fight this urge to go up to them and touch their stomach. I get how rude that is, but I have a deep respect and fascination with pregnant women, simply because I see pregnancy as a miracle, and one which I am sure I would be unable to go through with.

Sagitar 04-13-2008 12:01 PM

old ladies can be total bitches too. it's not a rule that once you turn 50 you become nice and innocent xD
I know EVERYONE has met those annoying, rude, self-centered old hags... -.- I hate them.

I just try to be nice to everyone generally, but if someone is being rude at me, I'm not going to be nice at them either xP

bleh, I'm just about to go to my cousins birthday... lets see how many will ask me if I'm pregnant because I've gained some weight :|

xxxdarkmissyxxx 04-13-2008 12:15 PM

yea... it happened to me...
i was at a party and i saw one f my friends there..
i haven't been seeing her for 2 years
she is bigger then me

and i went to ask her...
sh was with her bf :
me:hi how are you?

she: of course not
me : are you pregnant?
she: omg, no! do i look so fat?
me:(panic ) no ,no i was just wondering
then she turned to her bf: i told you i am fat :(

whitebeast 04-13-2008 12:42 PM

I can honestly ell the difference between a fat lady -of whatever age range- and one whose pregnant. I have lived with a pregnant woman and I was constantly her punching bag---you know the person who would be the target of her anger and such? I swear I think it's my role in the family.

O.o;

So far, I have never been wrong in determining who's pregnant or not. But I never approach people and congratulate them.

Fat women -no offense- have this roundness that's just about fat and it's not just focused on the tummy. I don't know. It's hard to explain. But it's not everywhere. And their breasts---they're just different from that of a lactating/getting there women. It's weird but really. O_O

Pregnant women well when they're round and all have this roundness that's centered around the tummy. The roundness of tummy is firm and their belly button pops out. Not to mention they still manage some kind of grace about them.

I also noticed not all pregnant women are fat. I have met one or two SEXY pregnant people in my lifetime. Even with the extra weight and person inside of them, they're still shapely and curvy in the right places. I don't know. Even in their maternity dresses they're still so pretty.

:3

Trinitydoll 04-13-2008 02:33 PM

hahahhahahhahahah seriously this made me laugh cause I remembered one time I was a teacher at a primary school and that day it was the day when kindergarten kids do a visit to the primary school they will go next year so they get to know it and prepare mentally for what it comes and I was helping the kindergarten teacher to count the kids and make them do a line when I see two of them talking and looking at me and one said oh she is pregnant my mom is pregnant too (I certainly wasnt but with the kind of aprons we use at the school you can think wether we are all pregnant or fat XD ) and I laughed and then the little boy comes and asks me straight out "Miss are you pregnant? Is there a child in there?" hahhahahahha I almost die I said no hun just bread and butter I ate for breakfast and he looks at me and said "oh dont lie to me i know you are pregnant" XD XD XD XD hahahhahahah I almost die laughing !!! he was all serious XD

sad_girlformat 04-13-2008 02:51 PM


WHOA! 0_0

I would go all shock if someone asked me that!
I would never really ask anyone.. I would just guess.

Sagitar 04-13-2008 03:17 PM

I agree with whitebeast.. :3

fat women and pregnant women look different.. you can just tell if the woman is skinny from everywhere else, but her tummy pops out. and I don't mean a pouch, but a big old balloon like tummy xD

and yep, pregnant women can look sexy :3 I think they look pretty if they are pretty, whether or not they are pregnant.. pregnancy doesn't make anyone look ugly to me.

whitebeast 04-13-2008 10:45 PM

A pregnant woman will gain weight around most parts but you'll notice it centers around the tummy too. Just as Sagitar mentioned.

:3 You'll just know. They usually glow with some kind of 'Hee!' expression and walk with their stomachs ahead of them too!

I don't know. I haven't lived with a fat woman before long enough to figure it out or see how it goes.

Sagitar 04-14-2008 07:52 AM

what's a "hee!"- expression? xD *giggles*

Kalium 04-14-2008 09:56 AM

Once my mum had her friends come over, and one of them was pregnant. I didn't know her, but I saw that she had a rather plump belly. I kept looking at her belly to see if she was pregnant or just fat, but when I looked at her face, she said "Yes, I'm pregnant", thus sparing me the embarrassment.

Vibrating Piggies 04-14-2008 03:04 PM

One of my co-workers got asked a couple of days ago if they were pregnant by a customer.(We're cashiers at Wal-Mart) Keep in mind, this girl is pretty skinny. The customer's reason for asking: the girl's top. Apparently it looked like a maternity top.

My mom has accused me of being pregnant on numerous occasions. I get sick to my stomach really easily and get dizzy sometimes. She misconstrued this as pregnancy.

Lapin Blanche 04-14-2008 03:23 PM

People used to spread rumours that I was pregnant because that little group hated me. I used to dress like a boy and wear really baggy clothes, so that might have helped a little bit.

Then I missed basketball becasue I was sick and they wen't around telling even more people. One of them came up to me and had the nerve to ask when the baby was due. I wanted to hit her, but I didn't. I just flashed my abs and she shut up and I never heard about my being pregnant again.

Omg, that's wickedly funny. Serves those people right though. >w< Strangers wanting to touch anything on someone else's body is so not... appealing.

Living Dead 04-14-2008 06:13 PM

I have before. If they have the bigger tummy pouch and they are wearing a maternity top why in this world would anyone think any different. But you always get embarrassed when you find out different. It is like that little ::face palm:: moments we all enjoy.

When I was pregnant we did not even know it until I was 6 months I did not show. They said I could not so I just kept going to the doctors thinking I was sick. I just about passed out at the hospital and they tested me there. They did an ultra sound to see how far along I was and I could tell by their faces something was either wrong or something. Turns out everything was fine but I was 6 months along. The funny thing is like a month before this I told my husband if I am not pregnant then my body things I am. My top was getting bigger and very sore and I felt little movements inside. My husband told me it was gas lol. The doctors told me it was IBS. So I think their ::face palm:: moment was then. My husband went back to the doctors and took them a picture of our daughter and told them this was the IBS and all the other things they tried to say I had.

Baby
 
I can't ask people that. D=
It's a forbidden rule, unless I'm feeling wild and crazy. Then I will :)

Skrae 04-15-2008 12:27 AM

Someone once asked me that when I was about 12...
I looked my age to, and was quite astonished, even though we had just had a big meal, and I did have some baby fat.

No one's asked me sense, though I am rather solidly built, but I'm not fat. -shakes head- That made me so much more concious of how much I weighed too.
