Have you ever told someone congratulations or ask them how far along are they if they looked pregnant and it turns out that they're not?

As of last weekend I am one of those guilty people. I walked into a bakery over the weekend and the girl behind the counter was about my age and looked pregnant. I mean she wasn't large any where except for her belly... so of course the first thing I think of is that she is pregnant.

So being a friendly person like I am I made a comment, " oh you're pregnant" and in response I get, "I am NOT pregnant". How embarrassing!

I was horrified that I actually told this young person basically that she was so large in the belly that I could only think that she was pregnant! I felt awful!

I think I told her 3 times that I was sorry. I wonder if I am the only person that has ever told her that?

Have you had an embarrassing moment like this and would like to share it? Write on I want to read them!

Or The Village Buzz at 200 Perry Street in Castle Rock.

I wonder how that poor girl at the bakery felt after reading your contribution?

I assumed this one time with a co-worker and asked Brendan to confirm it with me. He said, "Oh, I'm not going there."

Karin, Ha that is horrible! I had one person ask me in the passed if I was pg.. I had a complex for a few weeks. HA Half of the tops that I own look like maternity tops... it is the style that is out now and I am loving it.

I tend to repress the precise memory of when I say stuff like that, but I enjoy when people unintentionally do it to me; it makes a funny story. I actually had the opposite experience. An amply-sized woman collared me at the Wal-Mart, admiring my maternity overalls, asking where they were in the Plus Size department. She assumed I was fat, not pregnant! Okay, so I was both.
