Today I was eating lunch with my DH when one of his co-workers approached me and said he heard a rumor (outside of DH's work) that I was pregnant.

Now, first of all, this can't be true, because I am on BCP's right now for endometriosis. Secondly, I never told anyone that we mutually know that I am pg. or even trying. So, ***??

I think it may be because I gained some weight last year and I wear it around my middle. Still, why would anyone go around telling other people I am pg. without knowing it for sure or hearing it from the source or the source's family??? It just really annoys me because I am trying so hard to BE pregnant and everyone accuses me of it, so why do I have to hear these accusations when I can't even make them true?

This is not the first time someone has approached me and said they "heard" this. I have never been pregnant, not once, not even a m/c. Also, sometimes I have clients approach me and ask me if I am. It hits on two of my most vulnerable topics--my weight, and my infertility.

I am not that much overweight, it just goes to my stomach. But I have not gained ANY weight in the last year. I know people mean well, but I wish they just wouldn't speak up unless they are sure.

Sorry you had to deal with that. I hate when people don't think before they speak.

Maybe they are just foreseeing the future.

Don't you just wish people would keep all there comments to themselves?? I hate it when people say things that are hurtful and they don't think a thing about it. When people find out me and dh are ttc they say things like, why would you want to do that at your age? Why don't you just wait on grand children? It's time for you and dh to travel and enjoy time alone. OK, I'm only forty, what the hecks with the grand children stuff?? yes we have a 20 year old married daughter but my gosh!! People need to just not talk to me until this is all over one way or the other !! roflmao. not really i'm just being dramatic but sometimes I do feel almost like that.
