101 things NOT to say to a pregnant woman

Ok, really it isn't quite 101. But there are some really obvious things you just DON'T say to your wife on a good day. No less mutter them to her on a pregnant day.

When I was pregnant with Joseph there is one thing that was said to me which I will never forget. Might I remind you that Joseph was almost 10lbs at birth, so in heinsight Big Daddy was probably just speaking the truth. But I recall one early morning near the end of my pregnancy I was attempting to get out of bed. Big Daddy came over to help me and my sorry self up. He then felt the need to comment "Man, if you get any bigger I am going to need a crane to get you out of bed!"
If his intent was humour, I didn't see it that day.

I must admit with Trent there wasn't that one comment that seared into my brain.

But this time Big Daddy has struck again. On Saturday we spent the day at the paddling pool & park with the boys. It was around +31 out and well my pregnant self thought it around +999, but whatever. When we got home I holed myself up at the computer with the lights off and the a/c blowing trying to cool off. Big Daddy walks by and catches me out of the corner of his eye and says to me "What did you rub all over your face?"
Me: "nothing why?"
BD: "Well...its kind of... shiney"
Me: "I am sweating"
BD: "Oh, I thought you put some lotion on or something"

I don't want to tell you what I really wish my reply was but it wasn't nice.
I have said it before and I will say it again. Pregnancy "glow" really doesn't exist, its just sweat.
