Wedding blues

Went to a wedding on Saturday. The bride looked radiant, the groom dashing. I thought I looked quite decent as well. That is until the mother of groom asked if I was pregnant. Then, as I said no with an awful sinking feeling, she poked my abdomen area and said, "Well I guess it's just the tummy then!". To add to my horror, there were about three people around her who had looked at me with expectant faces when she made her enquiry, ready to offer me congratulatory words.

When the boy asked if the tears in my eyes were due to the touching ceremony, I wasn't quite sure what to say.
