I don't think people guessed about me - my mom hadn't a clue and she is usually pretty clued in to things. But then I told them my parents at 10 weeks and friends at 12 so it wasn't like I was big.
As for guessing about other people - as soon as any of my sporty friends run a bit slower, don't go to a race they should be at or enter a shorter race then everyone will make a guess..... Quite a few times I've heard from someone, "oh XYZ was running slowing at the weekend, I bet she's pregnant" and a few weeks later guess what we hear. One of the girls was amazed everyone had guessed but she just laughed at it and said that she hadn't realised how much slower she was running. It's just a bit of a game really and it doesn't matter if people guess - the main thing is that the baby is ok.
