- Well yes, you are putting on weight! But to be fair to you, you haven’t trained in ages and have eaten whatever you wanted for 6 months. Given all that, you look ok.
- Whilst watching “One Born Every Minute”. Oh my god, the stretch marks on that woman are horrendous. No amount of cream is getting rid of them.
- When the baby comes, I’ll be ok to sleep in the spare room won’t I, so you can breastfeed and I can get some sleep?
- When the baby comes, I’ll still be ok to go out a few nights a week with my friends, right?
- Actually, now you mention it, I have noticed a few hormonal changes in you.
- You don’t look pregnant in that dress, just a bit overweight which is a good thing because the bump is so small.
- Are we still on for 5 children?
- You’re such a tough woman, I reckon you could give birth in the morning and be back to work by the afternoon.
- I don’t want your breasts to sag after having all these kids.
- Landmark pregnancy milestone reached. Those are officially cankles, do you mind if I tweet them?
I have to be honest, they were all said tongue in cheek and they were taken in jest (well most of them anyway). I’m always given a wide berth with the stupid things I say. Most of the time they manage to raise a wry smile.
On the flip side, here’s a great link to things you should say to a pregnant woman:

As the mother of seven, I approve this list. Had my husband ever said any one of these things, I’d be a single mom today.
Totes diggin’ your blog. Keep up the great work!

Hahahaha! 🙂 You are going to get yourself killed sweetheart! 😉 Although number 3 is actually still happening at our house. I sleep better and am less stressed with Bubba when my husband is in the other room.

Haha. I was trying to have a serious conversation with my husband about our options with a VBAC and out of the god-lovin’ blue he says “yeah your face is getting bigger” meaning I’ve put on some weight and it isn’t as thin anymore. Well thank you for that wise bit of insight! I have a month to go so I guess it is a possibility! Thankfully I have a fantastic sense of humour most of the time…
