A Stranger's Inquiry

Well, today marks the first day of what must be the noticeable weight gain phase of my pregnancy. This morning, I had a stranger ask me for the first time when I am due. Now, I will be honest, unlike the last time a stranger asked me when I was due (which, I will note, was a week before our wedding when I was about the skinniest I have ever been -- I immediately gave away the dress I was wearing that day), this time around, I felt a small amount of glee. I am happy that people can now tell that I'm pregnant, and not just getting a little clumsy around the waist. On the other hand, I had gotten a small amount of satisfaction in knowing that I was over five months pregnant and people still couldn't really be sure...
