As the father of 3 children, I am MORE than aware of how women don’t enjoy having others notice/comment on the size of their belly during pregnancy.
Statements like “wow, you popped!” are just not the way to go. That, I am smart enough to know.
Well, the other day, I saw a friend of ours walk through a door and I said, “so, when is this thing going to happen?”
Innocuous enough, right?
The friend picked up on my tone, which I hadn’t been able to conceal.
The tone said, “man, you are HUGE, it’s got to be any day now!”
She laughed, a knowing laugh, as if to say, “yes, I am huge and I get where you are coming from.”
Fortunately, she didn’t get angry (as she could have) and just said, “I’ve got 4 weeks to go.”
