This is the Conversation Forum for The Needs of Pregnant Women << Ooh, Hootoo Timing! Daddy?! >> Subject: Inappropriate questions Posted Dec 9, 2006 by Kelli - 89/89 pre-babies weight reached. 5/21 to wedding weight   Posting 1 "Have you seen your feet in a while? And how much do you weigh now? Are all appropriate baby conversations" Who the hell came up with this gem? You wouldn't ask a non-pregnant woman how much she weighs would you? At least not expecting an actual answer anyway... The most inappropriate I've had was from a colleague - and not one i talk to that often. He had asked me why I wasn't travelling with some of the rest of my team - and when I said I was expecting he said 'Oh! Was it planned?'

I knew someone who got so fed up with people asking if she was having a boy or a girl that she started answering "It's a giraffe!" Think she got a few funny looks for it, but they got the point eventually.
