remarkable
• (my
brother-in-law En) “So how far along are you now? Third trimester?
Because you look like it.”
• (our
neighbor) “You must be growing by the minute!”
• (my
Bjorn) “Your bellybutton is disappearing.” and “You don't look
pregnant from behind.”
• (my
doula) “Some women just don't put on as much weight [in pregnancy].
Your body just isn't preparing for famine, that's all.”
