WTH?? Am I huge?

Hello ladies,
So I have this picture that I took yesterday and posted on my myspace. Mind you I am 17weeks and 3days ( so 17 weeks 2 days when I took it). I got some nice replies and then some old friends from highschool sent me messages saying I was huge?!?!?!? And I better pray it is twins, and also I got a " I'm sure it is twins since you have only had one u/s, so they missed the other one". WTH?????? Honestly, am I THAT big??? Yes I have gained a little more already than I wanted. So I'll post a before and the now pic. Mind you this is my 4th pregnancy...my 2nd to full term (at least we hope)and my before pic is after 1 miscarraige and one live birth. So my body has been through ALOT! Alright.. honest opinions wanted! And I will have no hard feelings towards you lovely ladies :)

Before:

I'm going to guess that the high school "friends" who were saying those things are all fat, bitter betties who are 30 lbs heavier than you and unable to compliment anyone else because they want them to feel as bad as they do. That's the only thing that would make sense to me because I think you look amazing! I think the twins thing is something that people just say for fun sometimes because it seems like everyone hears it, whether they're huge or tiny. The best way to respond IMO, would be to say "Really? You think I look big? Because I think I look fabulous!". If they are trying to bring you down, that'll let them know it's not going to work.


You look awesome! Keep up the good work growing that healthy baby! :)

Thank you ladies!
I dunno why I let stupid crap get to me. I mean my one girlfriend I love to death...she is slowly passing away from cystic fibrosis and has always been a smart butt, but it still hurt to hear that. I know I have packed on some pounds already but I am being good and working out. ARG! People are just mean at times I guess. But you ladies are wondeful...thank you for the sweet comments. And stephanie thanks for the advice!

Hon you are NOT huge at all... just pregnant! And you look beautiful! I think your "friends" are just jealous is all. I can only hope to look half as wonderful as you when I get PG myself!

You look just fine. I bet they were just trying to say something that they thought you wanted to hear. My MOM used to give me those horrid comments thinking they were good.
