After a recent OB visit, I heard a lot of things I wish I hadn't from an OB (an older male), not my normal practioner.
1. Are those vericose veins or are you being beaten? Reply- "As far as I know I am not being beaten". "Well you should call the cops on those veins"
2. You don't have stretch marks. You are lucky. You have good genes. Oh wait, you have vericose veins.
3. You look big.
4. How tall are you? 5'9. Well its a good thing because if you were 4'9 you would have a problem delivering this baby.
5. No you aren't dilated at all. We don't do inductions unless deemed medically necessary. Oh, you delivered your first two late. You have a ways to go then.
This was all in one visit. Anything you want to add to the list?
