Am I the strange one??

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I am 19 weeks pregnant and I just found out that a close friend of mine is due 2 days after me! We talk almost everyday and have a lot of close friends that we hang out regularly with. She is short, and skinny, skinny, skinny, I haven't noticed a bump on her but she doesn't wear very form fitting clothes. I don't feel like I am big ( I am 5'7 started at 135 pounds and have gained 4 pounds) but now I feel really strange that I have told people already! I kinda feel wierd because I feel like people will compare how we look because we are practically due on the same day. ( I already know I shouldn't do this because we have such different body types, but I can't help it!) To add to it, she still doesn't want me to tell anyone, and I have no idea when she will start to tell other people! She already had her ultrasound and knows the sex, along with knowing the baby is healthy. Now, I will feel strange talking to people about my pregnancy with her sitting right there knowing that she is pregnant and just as far along as I am.
Is this normal feelings for me to have??? Am I just acting on pure hormones right now??? I'm just so frustrated......

I don't know many women who could hide the fact that they were pregnant much past 19 weeks but if your friend has chosen to continue to, that is her decision. It doesn't mean you can't talk about your pregnancy. Having a baby is exciting and you shouldn't feel like you can't enjoy it because of her personal decision.

BTW, congratulations!

I agree with Elaine. You aren't weird. Most people share the news earlier than that, if she chooses to keep her pregnancy a secret that is her right. You should enjoy yourself and share with whoever you wish about your pregnancy though!

Nah, you aren't weird at all.
