I do not admit to or deny being the subject of the following "Rude Pregnancy Comments." However, I'm sure you can deduce which ones I've had the pleasure to internally cringe at. My personal favorite. The last one...I'll be blogging about that one soon.
Nice Boobs!
"I bet you're liking those boobs! They look nice cause she's
pregnant, but they probably won't after she has the baby." (To the
husband of a mom-to-be while they were out shopping.)
Can I See Your ID?
"You look too young to be having a baby ... "
Big Is Not the Word
"God, you're gigantic."
Are You Sure ..
" ... there's a baby in there?" (To a mama not showing in a big way.)
"Are you eating? You know it's dangerous to diet when your pregnant."
Calorie Police
"Are you going to be eating those all by yourself?"
“Did you even have time to lose the weight from the first one?”
"When were you due, like, yesterday?"
"How much weight have you gained?"
Fortune Tellers
"I'm sure your baby's going to come early -- there's no way you could make it all the way to your due date."The Gender Question
“Oh no! STILL no boy?” (or girl!)
“So are you trying for a (girl/boy) this time?”
Not Your Breast, Not Your Business
"Are you going to breastfeed? Why not?"
Out of Line!
"I was at the grocery store one day, and knew several of the cashiers.
Sarah looks at me and says, 'How far along are you?' I said almost 36
weeks. She decides to tell me that Candice, another cashier, just went
into labor yesterday and gave birth to a stillborn after a full-term
seemingly healthy pregnancy. This was with my first pregnancy, and I
thought, well, if I was nervous before you sure DIDN'T put my mind at
ease any!"
Stating the Obvious
"You haven't had your baby yet?"
How Soon They Forget
"You're eating AGAIN?" or "How can you STILL be hungry?
Daddy of All Comments
"Are you sure your husband is the father?"
Fit to Be Tied
"Are you getting your tubes tied? You've been pregnant forever."
