What Not To Say


At six and a half months of pregnancy, I've already heard too much! In case you are unaware of pregnancy etiquette, below are a few things you DO NOT say to a pregnant lady.

-"Are you pregnant??"

-"You look huge!!" Mention that the BABY or the BELLY looks bigger, not the woman.

-"Wow, eating a few too many Christmas cookies?"
Oh, the comedians out there...

-"Was it planned?"
Who cares?? It is what it is.

-"You are looking a little HEFTIER this year, maybe you should watch yourself."
Another comedian.

-"Get as much sleep as you can before the baby comes."
Despite the exhaustion, sleep isn't so simple when you are uncomfortably pregnant.

-" You look about ready to go!"
No, I still have 3 more months...

- "Are you having twins??"
No, are you?

-
Lastly, please do not make a comment about your own physical pain (especially if you are a man). You have no idea.
If you've made a pregnancy faux pas, don't worry, we are very forgiving. For the future, however, I hope these tips help. Thank you!


Moms, what are the worst things YOU heard during your pregnancies??
