Top 10 Things Never to Say to a Pregnant Woman Pregnancy is a tough time as it is and pregnant women will not appreciate being asked silly questions. If you have been pregnant, you will agree. If your friend is pregnant, the least you could do for her is lend a helping hand when needed and to be with her so that she doesn’t feel lonely as she puts up with morning sickness, pain, constipation, constant urination, weight gain, and so on. Find out the ten things that you should definitely avoid saying to a pregnant woman.

Because what a pregnant woman needs is a ‘friend’ in the real sense and not someone who will irritate her and make her feel worse by asking useless and seemingly nonsensical questions or saying the stupidest things ever.

1. Are you having twins? Don’t look at how much weight your friend has gained and speculate that she might be having twins. Asking her something like that suggests that you mean that she has put on too much weight and of course, that is what you mean. Don’t think you hid your thoughts well in your question because you didn’t. Pregnant women are usually very sensitive when it comes to weight gain during pregnancy. Don’t make her feel worse by asking her something like that or insinuating that she has gained too much weight.
