Dr's office faux pas

[motzie]

I was waiting to check out at the office this morning and the woman in front of me asked how far along I was then commented on how small I was etc. So thinking I was being polite I said "oh how about you?" And she replied that she just had her second 6 weeks ago. I was confused because I thought she meant ultrasound (I had my pics in my hand) and then I realized she meant baby. She was post partum and that's why she had a tiny belly. I felt like such an ass. She looked gorgeous. Hair done, makeup, way more pulled together than I ever looked at that time. We chatted about age differences and how she was coping with the second one, and she was SO nice, but I feel horrible. Like what if I ruined her day, ugh.

This is totally something I would do! Oops!

Meh, "and how about you?" is a pretty innocuous question. It isn't like you said "when are you due?". Don't feel too bad

I hope you are right!

My payback was when I went back for a second appointment just now the nurse decided to talk about weight, hers and mine and how much she's gained. What does one say to that?
