What were your biggest pregnancy surprises and pet peeves?
in Pregnancy ·
Honestly, the one thing that really got under my skin was how nobody even bothered to acknowledge I was pregnant until I hit my ninth month—mostly because I’m naturally thin and my bump looked more like a tiny little marble than anything else. It didn't matter how much I tried to wear those tight-fitting tees just to get some recognition while I was riding the bus, sitting at the bank, or hanging out on campus; people just didn't notice 🙂 and sometimes, I think I would have actually appreciated the gesture if someone had offered me a seat, since those eight pounds I gained ended up going straight to a belly that's barely even visible 😁
