Freaked Out! How did she know my secret?
Only 5+3 weeks down the line and my colleague in work came up to me today and asked me outright was i preg? I have not had any sickness or anything to give it away so just joked with her that she was calling me fat and tried to ignore the question - but she said it was in the eyes and asked me again! I said 'no' but I am sure my face gave it away!!!
Has this happened to anyone else? Can they really tell or is it complete luck on her side???

Some women do glow in pregnancy so maybe you look a bit different, especially to women who have had children already.
Also a couple of years ago my mum said she thot our next door neighbour might be pegnant- I asked her why she thot this and she couldn't give any real reason- about two weeks later our neighbour told us she was pregnant.
She is a freaky woman

Have you changed any habits at all that might give people a clue? When the girl I work with was pregnant, she started eating loads...me being oblivious joked that she had worms!! Someone else at work put that together with her not drinking on a night out and switching to decaf tea and coffee and guessed - but didn't ask! Also anything as simple as a doctors appointment can make people suspicious if they are like that!
My ex-boss used to ask me if I was pregnant any time I mentioned feeling sick or having a docs appt!
I think its just people gossiping tbh - rather than some mysterious way of knowing!
People were like that at my work too - constantly asking me questions like had i been to the pub at the weekend and another asked if i celebrated my 30th by having a few drinks and i just said no i hadnt (which i suppose gave it away) and then another colleague got suspicious as i had my booking in appointment and she wondered why i was at the 'dentist' so long. Then other colleagues were guessing as they said i kept going to the loo (which tbh didnt go any more frequently than i usually did!). After i announced it officially at around 13 weeks one colleague said to me 'well i thought you were pregnant coz you are starting to show' which i didnt think i was at all and think i have only just started to show these last few weeks (at around 18 - 19 wks)
