Baby's Coming

Here's a picture taken today of "the belly." I'm 26-28 weeks, depending on who you believe (babycenter.com and my own calculations have me at 26 weeks, my pregnancy journal has me at 27 weeks, and today my dr. said I was at 28).


(Don't look at my face - the sun was right in my eyes and I'm very squinty - I think I could give Renee Zellweger a run for her money!)

Here's a typical conversation with a stranger/casual acquaintance.

Stranger: When's your baby due?
Me: December 1st.
Stranger: Oh! Are you having twins??
Me: No.
Stranger: Oh. Just one big baby, then!
Me: Um....I guess so.

(I'm not sure why people feel the need to say really stupid things to pregnant women, but they do.)

So I can't find pictures of me when I was at this stage with Elaine (D - if you have pictures from my baby shower, I'd love to compare them) but I don't think I'm THAT big - though I do think that I'm bigger than I was with Elaine at the same stage. But I certainly don't look like I'm carrying twins. However, from now on, if anyone else asks that question, the answer is "yes, I'm having twins."
