Are you sure you're only 8 weeks???

I have been super sick lately and I HATE crackers. I hate them now anyway. Cheerios seem to be doing the trick. If I have another day like yesterday, though, I may have to take a sick day. I've had to tell my students to please just be good if I run from the room!

It amazes me to hear what people will say to a pregnant woman. "I was in labor for 20 hours and the baby weighed 30 pounds." "I almost died and the doctor didn't show up." You can just hear the craziest stories from people! I am probably guilty of doing this too, although I try not to be one of those people.

Today I was the victim. Someone said to me they couldn't believe that I was only eight weeks pregnant. This person then proceeded to ask me if I was sure of my due date and was I sure I wasn't having twins. I wanted to scream, "I'M BLOATED!" I just laughed and smiled. It must be the Southern lady inside of me. The moral of the story is - think before you stay something to mortally wound my ego!
