A case of mistaken WHAT ?

The idea of pregnancy is scary but pregnant women are adorable! It is the last thing they want to be told...besides the fact that people go ahead feeling her womb, unannounced!Well, anyone would gloat and bask happily in the attention they get...but well, there is a limit to that! First of all its the hormones giving you the angry bursts, to top it the questions...."Oh are you pregnant? how cute...."

I am such a wrong person to talk about this...but have seen people complaint about this and have managed to stop myself from asking these questions to people I suspect are pregnant!

Coming to this, it once did happen that I met this girl at a gathering and she introduced herself, said she's been married for over 3 years and only had her hubby accompanying her. She did sport a slight paunch and dont blame me for assuming that she might have been carrying. She sported no signs of being fat, no place but for the paunch! at least I didnt go on to pop that question! but did make her conscious by constantly looking at her ahem...

Hey, couldnt help...I had to know, wanted to congratulate her; that is if she were pregnant! so I went over to Balu and confessed my doubts only to be pushed away and silenced instantly....bah!as if he could stop my mind from working away!

I tried to pry on every conversation she was having ( I was seated right next to her so thats not evesdropping ) and no one seemed to have my doubts. This meant only one thing...either they all knew that she WAS indeed pregnant or otherwise!That was all I left with that day, the whole even seemed unfruitful because of what I call my "Reasonable doubts".

As for you all, my doubts were needless, she wasnt pregnant & I could find that out only after a couple of weeks at another gathering where she was present too, in a different attire ( after a lot of gym sessions I presumed ) where she was obviously NOT pregnant!
