Im only 13, almost 14, and today at the beach i had to go to the bathroom. So i put my tank top and shorts on and went to the bathroom. When i got there, there was a lady in line in her bathing suit and had a bit of a belly. She goes to me once i get there, "when are you due?" and i was like "what?" kinda quietly. And she goes, "when are you due?" and kinda smiled. Then the bathroom stall opened and she went into the stall. When she came out i went in and she left. I was thinking to myslef, am i really THAT big that a person thinks im PREGNANT. i mean i dont look even old enough to drive! i am a little bit bigger, but im really self concious about it. Doesnt she know that teenage girls feel already concious about themselvs, but the minute i get in the bathroom she aks me when im due!!
im not sure what to do? =[

First, that is a big foot in the mouth and I don't even comment like that. Second when a gal is pregnant it is like the whole nesting thing, flocking and all. Getting other experiences and opinions and just being excited. Third, and good for you that you aren't, lots of kids get pregnant and lots of adults can look like kids.
About you, are you obese, I mean check the chart for height weight and age. Remember you are still growing into your body. If you are conserned just eat healthy and stay active. Talk to someone who knows you, like a dr, nurse, or counselor.
Yes, I still can feel very self consious but have worked hard to get over that and Yoga and meditation helps me be at peace with everything b/c of the time to rejuvinate and do something selfish. ( It actually benifits my family tremendously, mama has to be happy, lol)
Either way, find an activity that you like and can do regularly, get into that habbit now b/c as we all age it can get harder to get out, ironically it is more and more important. Think about what our bodies used to do for us before all these conveniences. They still need used properly even if we use the luxuries.
Don't think on the pregnancy question, it is a very hard one and like I said, I don't ask b/c you never know a stick skinny person could be bloated and getting on the cycle and look 2-3 months. I know I haven't got my pooch to go all the way back, hard hard.

Don't worry about it, even if you are big (which I dont think you are) the woman is just stupid. If you don't look like you're old enough to drive then what the hell is her problem for calling you pregnant I mean i don't think you had sex already so. . . Well anyway that woman is really stupid on a account of that she smiled when she asked you the second time and anyway i'm 13 going on to 14 so maybe we can be friends. . . I'm kinda lookin for a girlfriend so. . . well. . . I hope I helped. . .

I think the question in itself is rude. Just because there's a belly, people assume that it's a pregnant belly.
Also, what if you were pregnant? Why would she care when it's due? Why would a perfect stranger care?
I got asked that a lot during my pregnancies by total strangers.
People, if you don't know for sure if that's a pregnant belly, don't ask!

a pair communities that my CD sequence does no longer be everywhere close to finish without are Savoy Brown and time-honored White Band ~ both funky kinda rock from the '70s. yet... i'm no longer certain about how massive they made it... I mean, they both have a handful of albums, so is that making it massive? besides, they seem particularly forgotten contained in the large global of rock music. yet i appreciate 'em.

She perhaps was just being mean. If you really want results, you should consider losing some weight and doing some exercise, especially ones that focus on your belly. ABdominal crunches and sit ups, and what not.
Cut the sugars, and fats, and the pounds will fall right off. You'll never be 'due' again ;)

Two scenarios exist:
1. A perfect stranger felt the desire to openly perform a peronal attack on you in a public place with no provocation.
2. You look like you may be pregnant.
You be the judge.

Don't let it bother you. She was probably just being a crabby little beotch. Some women are very catty. Next time something like this happens, just think of a witty comeback.

Only YOU can do something about it, but not because someone might mistake you for a pregnant person but for your health so you might live a better life LONGER. Don't take MY word for it though ASK YOUR DOCTOR.
