Things To Say & Not To Say To A Pregnant Woman...

It was the best of times; it was the worst of times.

Okay, so I'm no Dickens and it really wasn't the best/worst of times. However, today I had the best and the worst compliment I have heard in this pregnancy.

Which one do you want first? Well, you don't get a choice so here it goes!

The Best

"Mrs. Stewart, you are looking so skinny!"

Thanks, Scott, for the wonderful comment. I may have to write that in my baby book!


The Worst

"Mrs. Stewart, your belly is looking fat!"

Thanks, my favorite student. I think I might have to change that grade I just gave you....


So the moral of the story is.... DON'T CALL A PREGNANT WOMAN FAT (even if she looks it), DON'T CALL HER BELLY FAT, DON'T EVEN MENTION THE "F" WORD IN HER PRESENCE. There should be a manual of pregnancy rules written.

Okay, I think I am done venting for today...
