If you've recently found out you're going to be a dad and you're new to the "pregnancy game" - here's a short essential list of "donts" for you. Never say any of the following to other pregnant women you will inevitably meet along the way to becoming a dad:

• "So when are you due?" No matter how pregnant a woman looks (and even if you see a baby's head sticking out of her body) - NEVER ASSUME a woman is actually pregnant just because she looks pregnant.
• "Breast feeding is best". Don't get involved in the breast feeding / formula debate. If challanged just nod and smile. Walk slowly away.
• "My sister was in labour for 3 days". Don't mention the "L word" (labour).
• "So who's the father?"Are you insane?
• "Women should just give birth naturally"Seriously?

Talking to pregnant women is not easy, talking to pregnant women about pregnancy and kids is like defusing a bomb. The weather is a good topic.
