what to say to a pregnant woman? - March 24th 2012, 08:03 PM
so I'm at the stage in my life where there are a few of my friends who are pregnant or married and pregnant. I'm never sure what to tell them when I first see them.

I have a feeling that if I say 'You look great!' or 'look at you! you look like a fertility goddess' it wouldn't come out right, they would think I'm lying or they might not take it they way I meant it. I know pregnancy is not the most comfortable or happy time for a woman, so I don't want to say anything that will make it worse.

so my question is, if you saw a friend that you hadn't seen in a while, what would be the most complimentary comment they could make about your pregnancy?
