This is an original post written by Cat. Thank you for listening to her story. Share your story.
My daughter Henna is 2+ years old and I look like I am 4 months pregnant. It is really hard for me because practically every time I leave the house someone asks me about my “baby.”
When they see me out with my two year old at Target they say, “Oh my! You sure will have your hands full! How far apart in age will they be?”
When I go to pay off my car they say, “Baby on board!”
When I am in a room full of people they say, “So, you are having another baby, huh?”
I say…
“No, I just have a big belly.”
They say…
“Oh, I just have babies on the brain.”
or
“Oh, it’s just the shirt that you are wearing.”
or my favorite,
“I’m sorry, it’s just that you are so small everywhere else.”
If I had a big butt nobody would come up to me in the grocery store and try to talk to me about. It’s just that I am so freakish looking that the general public is 100% positive I am pregnant. I am a mother of two and a full time college student. I try to lose weight, but it definitely doesn’t come easy to me. I try not to let it bother me, but let’s be honest, how could it not?
Sorry that this isn’t a more uplifting post, but I am struggling with this, and constantly tormented by well meaning morons.
Cat is a mother of a 10 year old boy, Spirit, and a 2 year old girl, Henna. She has been married a little over three years and is currently going to school for medical coding and billing.

Some people in my real life often ask me why I created a blog called Still Look Pregnant? Obviously, the people who ask me have never been asked if they still look pregnant. And for the people I meet who have been asked (many times) if they are pregnant (when they are not pregnant) light up when I tell them about this Still Look Pregnant blog. Some call it brilliant. I call it a need…a need for all women out there to know they are not alone.
Being asked if you are pregnant when you are not pregnant can be a very lonely experience. If you found this blog because someone asked you if you are pregnant (when you are not at all pregnant) be sure to look around this blog and read real stories from real women fighting what can seem like a never winning battle of still looking pregnant.
Why did I create this blog?
I created this blog for the all the women goggling things like…
