10 Stupid Things People Say to Women When They’re Pregnant

Here's a list of 10 “stupid things people say to women who are pregnant”.  I'm  sure you  can relate as you've probably heard one or two of these comments as your belly was rapidly growing in your 9 months of pregnancy. Ahh yes- well that's just the beginning of motherhood=)

 Anyone who has been pregnant has had one of those experiences. That time when someone says something so totally absurd about your pregnancy that your jaw literally hits the floor. You cannot imagine how these people get through life on a daily basis when such total and utter stupidity can come out of their mouths. Even worse is that the majority of these comments come from women who have also endured the 9 long months of pregnancy and the emotional hurdles that go along with it!

 

• “I didn’t do an epidural because I love my baby.”

• While I was pregnant with my 3rd child my Mother-in-law introduced me to someone and proceeded to tell them that this was my 3rd and final. Umm who made her boss over how many children I will or will not have?
• One guy asked if I had double checked with the doctor because it looked like I was having triplets… talk about a meltdown moment
• “Are you pregnant? AGAIN! Like mom said, you can teach ignorance, you can’t teach stupid.”
• Are you having twins?” “No I’m not having twins.” “Are you sure?” No I’m so stupid I have no idea how many babies are in my stomach.
• When I went to my first Ob app. The nurse asked a list of questions. The stupidest, “do you and your husband have sexual intercourse?” I looked at her, then my belly, then her again. I said uhhhh yeah…..
• “I knew you were pregnant when I saw you in March,”  Except I wasn’t pregnant yet.
• I was on the table waiting for my c-sec with my twins. I was talking to the NURSE and telling her they were boy/girl. Then she asked me “are they identical?” I said not when we change the diapers. You would think a nurse would know better.
• “Was it planned?”
• From my husband…on mothers day….”eeewwww….why are your nipples so dark?”
