Don't you dare say these ten things to pregnant women.

Oh, we can guess the why.. Is either nonexistent or selfish. Second... We can't question their reproductive measure but they can ours? Hehehehe... REALLY. :satan
"the only thing she could really learn from a comment like this is how judgmental people can be."
Oh noes! Don't be judgemental towards a preggo! You save that for the Childfree and happy!

"So while your postpartum friends want to commiserate about stretch marks and varicose veins and the fawn-soft paunch your kids like to squeeze to relieve stress, your pregnant friend wants to hear this and only this: "What a cute belly!" (After she is unmistakably showing, of course.)"
"Don't wake me.. Don't wake me..
"Also unwelcome are any anecdotes, no matter how dramatic and amusing, about rare first-trimester diseases, notable mutations.."
"Don't wake me UUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuUuuuuuUuuuuup!"
"This is likely one of the most exciting announcements of a person's life. Evince at least as much enthusiasm as you would if someone brought cupcakes to work."
... Fat, bloated, vomitous, cupcakes? With bad timing (this woman announced it the middle of a conversation about a presentation, its no wonder that she was passed over in the conversation. She's lucky she didn't get told what everyone was ACTUALLY thinking: "so we can expect you to be a useless sack of flesh in the near future!" "So how long will you be on maternity leave, I need to know so I can put my life on hold and shoulder your job and mine while you grunt out your piglet." "So how many employee benefits will you be sucking up THIS time?" I'm sure she would have been less than pleased to hear THAT. Maybe she shouldn't ask for words. Especially nowadays when people are acutely aware of their benes and pro-natalism is weakening at its hinges.

Fuck off. You'll get a monotone "congratulations" delivered with a completely neutral facial expression and fucking LIKE IT.
And even that's only because I can't exactly get away with saying, "So fucking what?"

Are you giving birth to quintuplets, because it certainly looks like you've been eating for six.
So...did the babydaddy bolt the minute the stick turned pink?
I didn't know shoe sizes went up that high!
You must be so proud that the condom broke.
Look, sorry for staring, but I've never seen a man with side-boob before. (referring to baby-daddy)
Do you want to see my photo collection of cheeseburger crotch?
