Aww skint i'm sorry someone has upset you so badly people can be so insensative sometimes. I mean bump size can mean nothing at all we all come in different shapes and sizes. My friend at work didnt even have to buy maternity clothes she got away with a size bigger as her bump was so small but bab was perfectly healthy yet im the size of a flaming house and still have 10wks to go. Just ignore them chick

It's worse cos I have to have a scan on Thursday to check the growth after having one three weeks ago, and while i'm pretty certain it is just a small baby, there is a chance that something IS wrong and I don;t need other pregnant women pointing and staring and talking about me like I'm some kind of frreak show!

Thankfully afterwards I went to my mate's and we went for lunch so I had a nice afternoon with her, plus my brother finally made contact after months of being in denial about the baby (I married his best mate and he's never got over it) and that really made me feel better.

Well fingers crossed that everything is ok for you chick these babies sure like to put us through the mill. If they upset you that much until you know everything is ok i would just not go or if your a cheeky mare like me just tell her to keep her big gob shut and her opinions to herself.

At least you got your silver lining with your brother would have been ashame for bubs not to have his doting uncle around :-)

I just don't get the thing with having to comment on people bumps. On here it's different, we post them to get the comments, but just meeting someone in the street... I wouldn't go up to someone and say 'My gosh, your boobs are tiny/massive!'. I've got a fair lining of blubbery insulation around my bump so it makes me cringe if people say it's huge, and then I just wonder when people say it's small, and just want to die when folk say they didn't even notice (so what, you just thought I was really, really fat?).

Off to start dinner while DH goes to collect his brother, they are sanding and oiling the patio furniture. Suppose I should tidy myself up too, minger come to mind.

Seeing as we are back on bump sizes again, inspired by Glam's bump pics a week or so ago, I got round to doing an updated one last night (26+3)



I can't get the whole torso in the shot any more!

I know! Apparently I 'ruined Christmas' as he doesn;t get his lads' night out on Christmas Eve any more, and I have stolen his friend cos they never go out any more EVEN THOUGH I would love them to go out together!

And my brother is older than me, by the way, not 12. :rolleyes:

It's too small

Don't you do lots of yoga and exercise though? And its your first. In which case its a bit more to be expected that you would have a Nicole Kidman size bump not an Ulrike Johnson one!

Yoga, yes but not exercisze - unless you count typing on the lappy as exercise! I do go for a walk most days but nothing strenuous.

I'm gonna take a piccy once Deal Or No Deal is over.

You evil harpie!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Actually DH and I were talking about my bump and decided that it is bigger than any of the two boys! We came to the conclusion that she must have a handbag full of make up and 3 pairs of shoes in there with her:D
