In the past, whenever Helen mentioned the name of, or saw a particularly svelte woman - be they celebrities, strangers on the street or even friends, she would say 'Skinny b*tch. I hate her!' in jest (I think.)
I bring this up because as we near Norby's due date, Helen hasn't really gained that much weight. This comes as a surprise since when she was first pregnant, she was eating so much that I thought she was training to beat Kobayashi at the 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Contest on Coney Island.
Since then, though? Barely any additional poundage on her tiny frame. Granted, she got sick for a bit and also has had to watch her diet because of the gestational diabetes, but the fact that she's stayed as skinny as she has while keeping the baby healthy is something about which I think she's pretty happy. Another thing that probably makes her happy: now she's the one people call a skinny b*tch (with a bun in the oven.)
My friend once told me that she had a friend who was so overweight that they didn't even know she was pregnant. And her friend never told people either. Kinda sad :(
