What did you say?!




I've discovered there are a few things that are rather offensive to a pregnant woman.
These are real comments that I've recieved from real people.

  • Wow you look like you're about to pop! When are you due? (I tell him June.. I still have 3 months) Oh... I am so sorry.
  • You look huge!
  • Are you really going to eat all of that?
  • You look REALLY pregnant today.
  • Red Vines are so unhealthy.
  • You're having a girl/boy. Thats why: your roots are so red, your face is getting swollen, you have hangnails, your feet are growing, etc.
  • How many babies are you having?
  • I hope you're exercising, you're going to want to drop all that baby weight fast when its summer time.
I have been astonished at the comments of some people, there are a lot more that I just cant think of right now. What makes a person think that any of these are okay to say to a pregnant woman who is already experiencing raging horomones? Luckily I have a very comical husband who finds other people's stupidity hilarious, and reasures me that Im beautiful and glowy (a new word in his vocab), not fat.

Isnt it ridiculous what some people say? I swear they have no filter between their mouth and brain. I know Im big--It's kinda a package deal!

But if it helps, I think you look great!
