Feeling Offended
Ok, I'm sorry to vent this .... Just feeling sort of bad about myself. I am 15 weeks pregnant & told work on Friday... and have been taking pics along the way so I know I'm showing and my husband and mom and family have said I am ... But anyways, so at work today over lunch someone pulls up a Facebook picture of a super tiny but very cute pregnant girl who is all bump. Conversation was "Awe look how cute she is she's all bump and so tiny!" Another one chimes in "oh yea I was showing right away no hiding it for me" and another "Me too! I was all baby!" .... I'm sitting quietly there and say "well some of us are lucky and can hide it for a bit longer." And I didn't say anything after that. Keep in mind on Friday when I did announce there was a lot of "I had no idea! Congrats" maybe I'm just super sensitive and so it's easier for me to be offended .... But I sort of felt like it was a dig in my direction.... I struggle with feeling like I just look "bigger" not pregnant ... So maybe it's just my hang ups? I'm not sure what to say in situations where I get to feeling uncomfortable about my size and also being pregnant... I know there will be more comments as the months roll by and I'm just not sure how to handle them. :(
