The Sympathy Stare

I'd like to think I'm a "normal" pregnant size for 6 months along. So I traveled to San Francisco for business today and people have moved from the "Awe, cute, you're pregnant" to the "sympathy stare." The looks says something like, "So sorry you have to travel, you don't look comfortable." To top it off, at lunch today in a full blown Italian accent, the waiter said by the looks of me that I've already had plenty to eat. I think his exact words were, "The next time you eat a watermelon, don't forget to cut it up." Classy Italian. Flattery will get you everywhere.
