The things men should never say!

Here we have a chuckle at the most unhelpful (and outrageous) foot-in-mouth comments he just could not stop himself from making.

“You look like an egg on legs!” joked my ‘hilarious’ husband as I waddled across our bedroom (naked, and five days overdue). And if that wasn’t bad enough, he encouraged our toddler to call me Humpty-Dumpty, which has stuck indefinitely.

Eight weeks after a C-section my husband brought home some sexy frilly knickers, which were the last thing I felt like wearing and went straight to the back of my drawer! When I hadn’t worn them a week later he casually hinted that “Maybe it was time to ditch the granny pants?” I’m now refusing to wear them.

We’d recently ‘done the deed’ for the first time since the birth, and when one day I complained at how slack my tummy still was, my husband replied “Well yes, everything’s a bit slacker these days, isn’t it?” The look of horror on his face as he realized what he’d implied was priceless. My reply was unprintable.

“Oh, so that’s what stretchmarks look like,” said my husband as I got ready for a bath. They’re on the underside of my bump and I hadn’t even noticed them myself yet, so I was less than thrilled that he’d pointed them out.

I really hate it when my husband says “You don’t look fat… it’s just that you’ve had a baby”, or, “I know you’re tired… but that doesn’t mean nobody else is allowed to be.” I think if he halved his sentences we’d get on just fine!

“I can totally see your love handles in that top,” said my boyfriend as I got ready for my first girls’ night out since the baby. I’m not proud of it, but I actually threw a shoe at him.

This wasn’t my husband (thank goodness, for his sake!) but a patient at the dentist where I work came up and told me he was sure I was having a girl, because apparently when you’re pregnant with boys they “Give you beauty”, while girls “Suck it out of you.” I was stunned, to say the least!
Kerry, 29, from Southampton, mum to Maddox, five months

I was a week overdue and complaining about my ballooning figure, when my husband ‘reassured’ me that his boss’ wife lost all her pregnancy weight in less than a month. Well bully for her!
