All the should-dos and must-dos are driving me crazy. I'm forming this list of things not to say to pregnant women who may look serenely calm but are boiling volcanoes inside.

Stickbabe's Top 5 list of stupid things not to say to pregnant women :

1. Is that why you're so moody recently? (how do you expect me to answer)
2. Soon, you'll feel like this and that... (said in a very annoying and knowing manner)
3. It's not wise to tell people so early, what if something bad happens?
4. Huh, you sure you're nauseous? So early? (stupid stupid comment, I shall puke in your face if I get a chance... )
5. Why you so tired? I also very tired what... (stupid stupid pig! it's different from normal tiredness)

[sometimes it's not just the words, but presumptious body language that gets me]

I've behaved exceptionally well by telling these people to read up on pregnancy books to understand my situation better. Still, there ought to be some island paradise where they run 9mth camps cum delivery for pregnant women, set amidst beautiful rolling pastures of fluffy white sheep. A glint of waterfall in the distant hills. And blue skies... and a helicopter pad where husbands, family and friends (who don't say stupid things) are flown in as and when needed.

I wish there were... and failing which, they could set up a jail for people who commit the sin of talking too much to pregnant women, irritating her and causing distress to her unborn child. Yes, and the jail term is 9mths. Nah, no caning needed. Maybe circumcision... hehehheh...

I hope I've been entertaining. I'm conveniently referred to as "that pregnant woman" now and have terrible mood swings. Am flushed with progesterone and oestrogen levels that are 150x of a non-pregnant woman. I can't wait for my Bali trip, and the last thing I need is for someone to tell me that I shouldn't take a plane at this stage.
