I was at a social event at the end of November and several men insisted I take their seats in the bar. It was a nice feeling, I must admit... possibly they were just polite anyway...

I only have to travel 1 stop into the city centre as i live near enough in the city centre, i have always walked but as its winter and obviously with my growing belly i've started jumping on the train. I didn't even take him up on his offer as i was only going one stop!!
Just thought it'd be fun to see when strangers started noticing each of us is pregnant, it was a mini milestone in my head haha!

I haven't been offered a seat since I drive all the time but people started asking when I am due and how far along I was at around five months. It's cute

Hasn't happened yet, but honestly I don't think strangers can tell yet either.

I got offered my first seat this morning and I am 22 weeks. It was a lovely lady, the guys on the train clearly saw me and did nothing! Most people look out of the window or at their newspapers to avoid having to give up their seat.
