It's possible your bump might give you away. That said, if anyone asks you can just act pissed off and thank them for reminding you of how huge you are.
I'm already a little big, so I'm willing to bet they'll just think it's me. But yes! You can't tell the babies by the size of a bump!
I gained so much weight during infertility. Between cycle hormones, being benched from exercise months at a time, and eating my feelings, I gained 30 lbs.
H came home for lunch today (I work from home) and was like, "oh you are starting to show!" I'm not. I pulled down my pants and was like, "here is my fat pooch-- see my pubic area starting to look a little fuller below the fat pooch? THAT is where the babies are." I wasn't even upset-- it's almost sweet that he forgot I got fat.

But, tbh, aside from the trolling and cute reactions, my reasons are that I don't want people EXTRA fussy over me, I don't want people to go overboard with getting me things, and I want to keep something special about this pregnancy between me and my husband (and the internet, hah).

Love that video, makes me tear up every time lol
It would seriously be the coolest and sweetest surprise! And then something for just of the two of you to enjoy during pregnancy as well. MH is the worst secret keeper, we didn't tell anyone DS's name and that was torture for him and he had a few slip ups.
MrRama is still only tentatively on board because he's a super worry wart. He says he's cool with it for now, but I've told him that if he ever gets really, seriously uncomfortable with it, we can discuss whether telling people would make his anxiety better.

I totally get that. We kept DS's name a secret until he was born for those reasons. It drove (some of) our family nuts (*cough* MIL *cough*), but I didn't care.

We also kept the name a secret until delivery. I wasn't super set on not telling, but we were so indecisive about the name until close to the end of the pregnancy then just decided not to tell once we finally did decide. My mom was constantly asking me whether or not we had a name right until the end. Then both mom and MIL were in the delivery room and I let the name slip and they were all "OMG is that the name???" and I was like oh, yeah, forgot we hadn't been sharing it haha.
