    Funny how none of those bugged me when I was pregnant. Maybe because my parents used to say preggo and I kind of always wished my dad was still around to say it so me. As far as I’m concerned, anything is better than “with child.”

      They just sort of get under my skin. And “with child” is as bad as saying a woman is “having her time” when she’s on her period.

    LOL. I’m actually guilty of typing out preggo or PG for short!

      PG to me is okay. It’s an abbreviation and not a cutesy phrase intended to…well..cutesify something. But “preggo?” Makes me think of waffles and pasta.

    LOL. I get why yall don’t like it. But when I’m finally pregnant I feel like I’ll be too busy shouting for joy to give a shit about it.

    {Not trying to say you’re not shouting for joy or discounting your opinion, just thinking what my opinion will be}

      Oh, I totally understand that. Totally. And when you are pregnant? If you want me to call you preggo, I will. Just for you.

    I never say those but I will type preggo…. guess I’m just lazy at times and don’t type the whole word pregnant. But when you look at it, there’s only 1 letter difference. ๐Ÿ™‚ Guess I have no excuse huh??

    LMAO…. You are hilarious Miranda!
    Never bothered me a bit but I get it.
    People are simply stupid sometimes when they see pregnant women, like they lose all of their manners — I hated the belly rubs! I was like WTF are you doing, get your hands off my stomach! OMG!!

      Belly rubs deserve their own special post. I mean, I am not the Buddha. Rubbing my flub will not bring you good luck.

    SERIOUSLY! Why must everything be so cutesy? Why are women afraid of being adults? grown? No preggo, bumbs, besties. Ugh grow up.

      I’m guilty of saying bestie. So I’m mostly an adult.

    Really?! I love those! I think they’re cute. I don’t like the shortening of other words by I do like those. Maybe because I don’t really like the work pregnant for some reason. I know, that’s weird.

      And now I’m picturing a grown man giggling. Which is odd. I feel like grown men should guffaw or something.

    Never bothers me. I guess I’ll take it anyway I can get it.
    I am guilty of saying it, too…okay, not saying it. Typing it. I think I would feel pretty ridiculous saying it out loud.
    I am not, however, a fan of spaghetti sauce in general, no matter the brand.

      I think the biggest question here is not that you like the word prego. Rather it’s how are we friends and I did not know you don’t like spaghetti sauce? HOW DO YOU NOT LIKE SPAGHETTI?!?!?!

        No, no, no! I didn’t say that I LIKE the word…just that it doesn’t bother me. I guess it just doesn’t register when someone uses it because I really don’t care.

        I do like spaghetti, but only a tiny bit of tomato sauce, if any at all. I’m more of a pesto or alfredo girl myself. See? No worries. We are still allowed to be friends.
