Post Partum Etiquette

For those of you who were wondering how to offend a post partum lady like myself, here are some tips you may find useful..

1. Inquiries such as "When are you due?" a month post the birth date- not so friendly.
2. Pointing, touching or staring at the pouch belly left over from delivery- quite obvious.
3. Saying "you look great" while you do number 2 with a look of disdain- insincere.
4. Saying "you look great" and then qualifying it with "it has only been x weeks" with a look on your face that says the opposite- not productive
5. Suggesting a tummy tuck repeatedly to your daughter in law when she is clearly a) offended, b) not interested in surgery, c) too poor for one anyway - not so classy

If you would like to offend or piss off an already sensitive and hormonally charged person like myself- I highly recommend trying any of the 5 faux pas above.

  1. I do not know how do you look these days, thus I can offend you !! lol

    but you certainly ARE great, regardless of how you temporarily look
