Over the past couple of weeks, my stomach has really blossomed. Which has brought on the thoughtful comments of others. I don't get offended, I just grin. I no longer get the comment that I don't even look like I'm pregnant with twins.
Comment #1 My friend looked like that with one baby. (Looked like what?)
Comment #2 Are you having a Christmas baby? Or, Are you due any day? (due date: January 25)
Comment #3 Sit down, it hurts just to look at you.
My favorite comment is from one of my young women.
Comment #4 YOUR HUGE!
Please feel free to leave me a comment and tell me comments that you received. Or if you have your own thoughtful comment for me.

I think I've said enough to you already! I know what you mean though, with the comments. When we were getting ready to adopt Jade, everyone would say the same things to me too. As my dad always says, "People think alike." It's very true in many ways.
But, the one comment I got a lot when Jade was first born was,
"Wow you do not look like you just had a baby!" Of course my thought was, "I didn't". And, then they would ask to many personal questions of I told them she was adopted. So, if I wasn't in the mood, I would just say, "Thanks!" My comment for you is:
#1 "You are a beautiful pregnant woman."
#2 "I'll pray you."
#3 "I wasn't going to say anything, but watching you has made me feel better about never being pregnant." ;)
My favorite comment was "when are you due?" I already had the baby.
