Ladies: Has anyone ever mistakenly asked if you were pregnant? How did you respond?

Asked by Seelix (14952points) July 21st, 2011

Inspired by my response to this question.

I’ll reiterate my answer: A girl I went to high school with came into the store where I worked about 7 years ago, when I was about the same weight I am now (so overweight, but not obese). She asked me if I was pregnant while looking at my belly. Let me add that this girl has always been pushing at least 350, and was pregnant in high school. Nobody knew.

In response to her, I said, “Nope. Just fat, I guess.” The irony being that I was not fat, and she was/is obese.

Has this ever happened to you? If so, what was your response?
If it hasn’t happened to you, what would you say?
