Things you never thought would be a compliment

So, as pregnant women, we get a lot of strange things said to us. What has been said to you that you never thought you would take as a compliment?
Mine happened at the doctor's office today.
1) Your urine looks fantastic!
2) Your cervix is long, thick, and closed. Just what we want at this point

Re: Things you never thought would be a compliment
When I was pregnant the doctor said " you have lovely ankles today" I almost cried I was so happy!
"Wow! Your ovaries are directly across from each other in just the right spot."
Uh, great!
"All the weight is in your belly!"
If I wasn't pregnant I'd probably smack someone for that one lol
"Wow! Your hips are so wide! Perfect for birthing babies. You'd be worth a lot in the Philipines!"
My NP was Filipino and apparently this is the highest of compliments.
You're measuring a bit behind, exactly what I was hoping for.
My husband saying, "Wow, you're really looking pregnant."
It took five and a half months to not just look a little fat.
HAHA! that's so weird! My Aunt is Filipino and she tells me that, too!! That, and that "with your blue eyes and fair skin, I couldn't take you there because someone would steal you!"
uh, thanks Aunt Cecile! lol.
I am having my 4th!! Everyone I know is amazed that I have already had 3 and willing to have a 4th.
One night while working ( I bartend and waitress) one of my customers told me that I make such a great prego lady he wanted to put me in with his cows!!!! WHAT??? He is so lucky 1. I am used to drunk idiots 2. I have a sense of humor 3. I don't really care what he thinks. That was my extra weird compliment!!
