"Spread" - a term my Mom uses that makes me CRINGE

UGH!!!! My Mom loves using the word "spread" to describe pregnant women! I hate it...it's like nails on a chalkboard to me.

She just said to me, "well you have spread a little from the back"...how
un-PC is that term??? Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I have never heard that one before - but the one my mom uses that for some reason I just can't stand is she is constantly joking around calling me person with the bump or person with the huge bump.

Re: "Spread" - a term my Mom uses that makes me CRINGE

mine calls me bubble butt in italian Chat Icon Chat Icon she also proceeds to tell me i'm not shaped like her. It used to upset me as a teenager because i associated having my dad's shape as "manly" when in actuality - my father's side of the family is better proportioned. So i just tell my mother she is just jealous because she has no a$$ or waist and I can iron a shirt on her backside... (that's when i'm feeling fiesty and sensitive)

its funny isn't it how only a mother can dare say some things to us and live to tell about it Chat Icon Part of the time, I know she's teasing but other times i wish she'd be a little more sensitive to my feelings... Gotta love them! Makes me wonder how we'll be if we have daughters...

Re: "Spread" - a term my Mom uses that makes me CRINGE

Oh my SIL (mind you she is PG and 5 weeks being me!) told me I looked like my dad because my mom is skinny. What does that mean????? And that I MUST carry babies like his side the family.

1/ She never met my dad neither saw a photo of him ever!!!!
2/ She never met any of my father's family and neither saw my mom PG.

My mom just tells me my booty got big. But my grandma always says "girl you are spreading" Chat Icon

I just laugh when they say that. But its pretty common in my family for people to say things like this.

Re: "Spread" - a term my Mom uses that makes me CRINGE

Yikes... I hate to hear anything like this.....

When my sister was pregnant with her first, in her 40th week she walked in the house and my father said "OMG you are as big as the state of Texas"....... needless to say he hasnt made any comments like that since :)
