A Pet Peeve

Sep 17, 2009 00:08

You know something that really bugs me?  Is when a pregnant woman - or anyone, really - claims that a baby is in the "tummy."

I just saw this quote from an actress online tonight: "I have a baby in my tummy." And it just made me gnash my teeth.

BABIES ARE NOT IN STOMACHS!!!

Or "tummies!"

If they were, they'd be getting digested and eliminated as waste.  Is that REALLY where you think that baby is?  REALLY?  Cause if so, you need to go back and take Biology 101.




Really, how hard is it to say "womb?"

Or even just a simple "She/I have a baby inside of her/me?"

Cause unless you swallowed a baby and are having a hard time digesting it, I don't want to hear about how you have a baby inside your stomach/tummy.

/end rant.
