So your DH is correct in the word, but not the use of it. He's calling you "pregnancy"... like "Hey You, Pregnancy Lady" when he should be saying "Hey You, Pregnant Lady" using enceinte. But of course, that wouldn't be as funny for him, so I say just go rent one of those pregnancy suits and make him wear it for punishiment! LOL

Actually, no he isn't. He's not calling me la grossesse. He's calling me LA GROSSE! Grosse means BIG.

Silly boys. :doze:

Thanks for the compliments ladies, it's greatly appreciated.... :blush:

+1!!! Do you know if there are 2 in there yet? :hehe:[/quote]

So far they think it's just one and we only found one heartbeat last time but even that was hard to find. I figure if there is really 2 in there she'll know better next wed when I have my next appointment

[url]http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=707231[/url]
which is a forum post. In case you don't want to read it here's what it says:
Q:"enceinte/grossesse/prégnant
what is the difference between these three words enceinte/grossesse/prégnant-- is there a level of formality differentiating the three? "
A:"As far as I know 'enceinte' means pregant, 'grossesse' means pregnancy and 'prégnant' means pregnant when used figuratively (e.g. 'a pregnant silence')"
A2: "In that case "enceinte" is an adjective: "Cette femme est enceinte".
"Grossesse" is a noun which is the the state of a pregnant woman, but also the nine months period: "Nous espérons que sa grossesse se passera sans problème jusqu'à l'accouchement"
"Pregnant" exists in my web dictionary, but I'd never heard it before!"

So your DH is correct in the word, but not the use of it. He's calling you "pregnancy"... like "Hey You, Pregnancy Lady" when he should be saying "Hey You, Pregnant Lady" using enceinte. But of course, that wouldn't be as funny for him, so I say just go rent one of those pregnancy suits and make him wear it for punishiment! LOL

ETA: MEB you look fantastic!!!!!!!!

Well there's my french lesson for today. I guess I always switched the sentences around so I could say she is pregnant as opposed to talking about her pregnancy. We definitely need to find a new word!!!

RE: Show me your Belly!

Nik82 — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 15:22:21 GMT

[quote][b]MEB (9/18/2008)[/b][hr]Grossesse is still used in french. It's the word for pregnancy (imagine instead of saying 'pregnancy' you would say 'the bigness').

' Oh yes, my Bigness is going fabulously well...'

Silly french!

DH says it to be funny. HI-LA-RIOUS! :doze:[/quote]

:w00t: I've only ever heard it from my grandmother! Everyone else I know who speaks french says enceinte ou avec enfant. I like those two better.

I find preggos SO beautifull, but I'm just not yet used to my own body being so....weird lookin'! I guess it doesn't help matters much that DH calls me : LA GROSSE (french for : The Big One) :doze:[/quote]

He does not!!! :w00t: My grandmother reffered to pregnancy as grossesse, which is apparently slang, or an older expression, I thought it sounded horrible when she said it... You should kick his arse!!! lol I guess that's why we don't use the term anymore![/quote]

Bwahaha, the dollarama pregnancy tests say something like like that...test de grosesse...makes me laugh every time I open one of them...

MEB, that is the greatest thing ever...:D

When it comes to be my time to post, I think i'll be embarassed...I probably wont even look pregant till 30+ weeks. I'll just look fatter. Anyone have a stomach flub roll? Will my tummy round out, or will i have that stupid ass lump while preggers:ermm:
