sitting on the subway

I've been out from 7am to 6pm, out of which I spent almost 3 hours in London underground transport, switching, walking, standing.

at 3 months I feel that I'm showing already, but my clothes were quite lose and others cant figure that I'm pregnant.

I really wish someone had offered me a seat, cuz most of the rush hour travel was cramped up and tiresome. until recently, I always offered others my seat, but I would hate to ask someone for their seat unless they offered it to me on their own.

anyone experienced this??

I don't live in London. I just know about it from friends do. I live in Wales and we don't have anything like that. I wish we did

oh my! ... at 7 months that is really inconsiderate of others not to offer you a seat. do you not wear the badge?
I'll check with my midwife next appt.
frankly I don't mind standing for short distances or when it's not crowded, but today was so stressful I hope it didn't affect the baby, cuz I'm having mild aches and lying in bed now  :-(

thank you for the tip!

But yes, I have this problem all the time. I get the bus to work and nobody ever offers me a seat at the station. And I am 7 months pregnant and it is very obvious.

You can get a 'baby on board's badge to wear so others will (hopefully) offer you their seat.
