    A corollary to that would be...

    Never mention a woman's baby bump before she mentions the pregnancy first.

    And never assume and send them to the Mom baby floor at the hospital before asking them what they are there for/where do you want to go.....

    I have seen that happen more than once.

    But not by the same person.

    My long former mother in law, the proper English Episcopalian priest, made such mistakes twice. Both women's reactions guaranteed that it would not happen a third time.

    It's better to say something and appear ignorant
    than it is to be silent and remain ignorant.

    If you ask a question and admit your ignorance, hopefully the answer will solve that problem.
