Yeah, me neither—the only exception is when it's just some gentle affection from a partner...

Anyway, you're always gonna be 😁
That is exactly the point... until recently, I felt like my stomach was just too small🙄
But now, it feels like I have a prominent belly, and honestly, I feel heavier all over...🤣
It didn't really make me angry, honestly—it was more just funny seeing how clueless some people can be. I actually had someone leave a comment suggesting I’d put on a massive amount of weight... specifically mentioning my arms, legs, and face.
To give you some perspective, during my check-up at Mayo Clinic, I only gained about 7 or 8 pounds total. But the funniest part of this whole ordeal is that I actually took my measurements—hips, legs, arms—before the pregnancy and compared them to now, and there hasn't been a single inch of change in those areas.
I mean, seriously, how much common sense do you have to lack to say something like that to someone? Especially when the person hasn't even gained an inch in the very spots you're pointing out. It’s pure bluffing—just assuming that because you're pregnant, you must be getting "bigger" by default. 🤦🙄
So, I ended up telling them that I hadn't actually gained weight, but rather that I was just "heavier" before the pregnancy—which isn't true, obviously, neither then nor now. Just a little way to shut down that kind of nonsense...
