Pregnancy Rule #03.
Dave Barry once said,
“Never, under any circumstance, should you ever ask a woman if she is pregnant unless you can actually see a baby emerging from her body at that moment.”
Telling a pregnant woman that she “looks pregnant” at any time during her pregnancy is a horrible idea. Really horrible. I cannot emphasize enough how horrible this idea is.
If this idea should happen across the synapses of your brain, immediately lock yourself in a closet or other isolated area and remain there until any notion of acting so recklessly and foolishly has passed. You can thank me for this priceless advice when you later discover that you haven’t been killed or maimed by an expectant mother.

I’d take it further and say that no man should say anything to a pregnant woman.
Though, other women make the same mistake, too. A former co-worker is expecting, and a complete stranger asked if she was carrying twins. Another said, ‘Wow, you’re not due until February?’
Police couldn’t identify the bodies.
That is sound advice, Isaac. You didn’t by chance do this… did you? And if you did, how are you feeling now?
I didn’t. But I went to the funeral of someone who had.
The poor guy had his arms torn clean off.
