Well meaning friend, this morning: "Oh my god, you're showing!"
I gritted my teeth as I thought, no, I'm not, I'm only at 8 weeks and I cannot believe you just pointed out my potbelly and I may just go home and CRY now, thanks a lot, that was the worst thing anyone has ever said to me...
I said, "Thanks!"
In other news, two people have told me know that morning sickness= girl baby. Jeff and I are leaning towards thinking it might be a girl baby, too, but that doesn't mean anything. It doesn't have LUNGS yet. We're just guessing randomly. Although as I told another friend whose wife is also expecting the day before they found out the gender, "Well, girls are great up until around 11 and then they are just unbearable and really don't get pleasant again until their late 20s, from what I can tell, whereas boys will trash your house but are still just as adorable when young, and then don't get unbearable at 11, they just lose all parts of their vocabulary besides the words "huh" "no" and "yes" until they hit college, so boys aren't THAT bad." (Turns out they are having a girl, I should ask his wife about her morning sickness.)
