"Solids," in reference to baby food. I don't know why but "Is your baby eating solids?" makes me gag. I can't say it out loud. Maybe because it makes me think of solid waste. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356629 Sat, 14 Nov 2015 19:58:25 +0000 mrsrain 2356629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally agree with puberty and sputum. Maybe words with that kind of U sound are just gross. </p> <p>Also I agree with @Mrs.KMM: about shortened words. They drive me crazy! Totes, cray, dipe, tute, etc. So cringe-worthy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356568 Sat, 14 Nov 2015 18:42:28 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2356568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really don't have any words that make me squirm. I do hate it when people try and shorten things to make them sound cutesy. To me it just sounds stupid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356134 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 20:34:17 +0000 Mrs. Peanut 2356134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's so funny that the ones that bother me are ALL listed! My main ones are panties (just sounds like a pervert adult asking to see a child's "panties" to me) and c*nt. I HATE that word. Moist is uncomfortable. Cervical mucus is also probably my least favorite combination of two words, which is funny because tracking it lead to my current pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356127 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 20:16:38 +0000 littleblessings 2356127@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mucus, puke, chunks, cunt (that's one that will cause me to never talk to you again), saliva. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356116 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 19:52:23 +0000 littlebug 2356116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: Hospital social worker. I worked on a respiratory unit for a year, so a lot of trach/vent patients. But even before that, I volunteered at a camp for kids on ventilators, so I've been around it more than I really care to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356112 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 19:49:59 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2356112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: are you a nurse too? until I was in the field I hardly ever heard the term, now I hear or read it daily and it's jst so gross to me! Yes, all parts of it. haha. Although I'd rather deal with sputum than BM any day ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356093 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 19:15:55 +0000 littlebug 2356093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sapphire: Kind of along the same lines as bestie for me is "bae." </p> <p>@Mrs. Pen: Everything about sputum makes me squirm. The word, the sound of it being suctioned, the thought of obtaining a culture.... HURL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356050 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 18:06:50 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2356050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>sputum.</p> <p>ugh, so gross. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356045 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 18:02:08 +0000 .twist. 2356045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hearing my FIL say "he wants the tit" really makes me cringe (PHRASING). </p> <p>On the other hand, I'm 100% not mature enough to say "breasts". lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2356043 Fri, 13 Nov 2015 18:00:15 +0000 Anya 2356043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Puberty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2342308 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 17:58:45 +0000 Mommy Finger 2342308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None of those words really bother me. I really hate the C U next Tuesday word. Can't say it. Can't spell it.</p> <p>And I really hate when people shorten words to be cute. It's not a sammy. It's a sandwich. I don't make ressies, I make reservations. Don't drink bevvies. . . you get the idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/words-that-give-you-heebie-jeebies/page/2#post-2341978 Mon, 02 Nov 2015 07:51:50 +0000 Ash 2341978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BadgerMom: yuck, I agree!

Ugh even typing it makes my skin crawl! My ILs call a bottle a "bubba" and that word also makes my skin crawl.
