So my DH's cousin came to visit from France and gave us some camembert. Now everytime I open the fridge, not only am I nearly passing out from the smelly feet cheese fumes that are made 100x worse by pregnancy super smell, I am tortured by the fact we have delicious cheese in our fridge that I can't eat

Any one trump that for inappropriate preggers lady presents?

Bad maternity clothes. Appreciate the gift, definitely, but if you give someone over-the-bump tight trousers, she wears them and feels uncomfortable, the appropriate response is NOT to go out and buy some more over-the-bump tight trousers and get cross when she won't wear them. Srsly. And also, nothing with glitter on it. Ever.

THIS ^ Also, any maternity Tshirts that say stuff like: Preggers, Hands off the bump, Bun in the oven. Yawn.

When I was 7 months pregnant with dc2 my sister bought me a pair of size 8 jeans for my birthday for after the baby was born, I actually cried, she was and still is childless, I may well get my own back!
