So I just got home from the thrift store where I was shopping for some warm things for Fiona. While I was there she was asleep in her car seat, so I just toted her along.
As I was standing near the sweaters a lady walks up and says "So how far along are you?"
Thinking she meant to ask how old Fiona is, I said "Oh...you mean, well, she's 2 months."
At which point she turns and says "Oh! I didn't even see her! Sorry! I guess you're still just losing the baby weight."
.....Uh, yeah.
I don't know who was more embarassed me or her.
To try and make a joke out of things I said "Well, it sure would be funny if I were pregnant."
At which point she turned and said "You have been using protection haven't you?"
......Ok, awkward...time to check out.
Hahahaha. Ahh, strangers make me laugh.
Happy Halloween!

aaah yes. i had that experience, too. the lady in front of me in a checkout line turned around and said, "When is your due date?" to which i (grumpily) replied, "Three and a half months ago."
heheh.
aren't strangers wonderful?!
that's crazy! and you so don't look pregnant, not even close.
ahahahahahaha. so, the whole asking-someone-who-isn't-pregnant-when-they're-due is always funny to me, mostly because it's such a stupid thing for a stranger to ask, but that protection comment is unbelievable!!! gosh.
i don't care if your belly button is sticking out, you're wearing a "bun in the oven" tshirt and you are lactating all over the place--i won't ask any questions until you actually say something about being preggers. that is the only safe way!
