6 things to never say to an overdue pregnant women —
, especially since it was my first pregnancy. Most of my friends offered practical advice and were supportive as I waited for baby. But others have said some pretty unhelpful, offensive things—and I’m pretty sure I’ve said the same things to overdue pregnant friends in the past. Oops.
Here are some examples of things people really need to stop saying to pregnant women who have gone past their due date.No matter how many times a woman tells herself she is gaining weight because she is pregnant, no woman wants to hear that she is huge. It can be very difficult to separate and accept our bodies as they get bigger. Even if you think you commenting on their growing babe is a good thing, avoid commenting on your friend’s size.and not understanding my growing body with my first pregnancy, affirmation meant the world. Finding a shirt that was long enough and wearing pants with a stretchy waistband was a challenging transition. If a pregnant friend meets you for coffee with a messy bun and no makeup, try to find something that you can affirm about her.
I had no control over. An overdue mom wants nothing more than to hold baby in her arms, and messages from friends can make her feel pressure when there’s nothing she can do about the situation.Small gestures to help overdue friends take their mind off of things make a big difference. Offering to get lunch together or treat her to a pedicure will help distract her from what feels like an eternal waiting game.
, and felt that I would rather wake up to my baby than my bladder. Feeling as though something daunting is looming does not make a challenging situation any better.Acknowledging that your friend is frustrated, uncomfortable and feeling impatient is one of the easiest ways to support them. Being a listening ear and giving them a chance to vent will do wonders for an overdue mom. If you have kids, resist the urge to tell them how much easier life was before your little ones came along.
