I am confused. I am 24 weeks pregnant and for the most part when people ask me how far along I am I tell them exactly that. Problem comes in when people say - oh so you are six months then? I have to agree because 24 / 4 = 6 but then they say oh so you are due in August then - they look very confused when I explain that I am due in September, as if I am being dishonest about my dates...

At 24 weeks pregnant how far along did you say you were in months?

When i told my mum it was a girl she said nevermind people don't mind as much first time around she is very biased towards boys for some reason.

My favourite is "you look really pregnant today" as opposed to yesterday when I didn't look pregnant at all.

I've not had any tummy touchers either apart from DP who fondles the bump all the time.

Oh yes Sweet Kitty - get that one a lot and they CANNOT work out that actually there is a correlation between how tight my top is and "how pregnant" I might look!!! So apparently, if I am wearing a big, baggy top, I look "less" pregnant - no sh*t!!!
