So you're pregnant … congrats! Time to go shopping for cute maternity clothes (yes, there is such a thing). But a word to the wise: you can have a lot of fun with cute jokes on maternity shirts, but let's be clear: you can also have TOO much fun with jokes on maternity shirts.Â

Yeah, some of these are meant to be gag gifts (you hope, anyways). But we know there are people who'd probably wear these out in public in total seriousness.

In Like a Banana ...
Banana/penis comparisons seem a little bit too seventh grade for a mom-to-be, don't you think?
So You Have to Stay Sober
Hate to break it to you, but when you can drink again you're going to have A BABY to care for. Better start practicing having fun without alcohol!
Ride A Cowboy
Alright, yeah. We all liked that Big & Rich song when it came out (like, 10 years ago, BTW). But now? Now I'm thinking it's a little bit tasteless to reference on your maternity shirt.
