Instead, you... er, "Bob" should affirm (or insinuate) the positive. Say something that suggests Glades... er, Gladys? is expecting a bundle of joy. 
It also has the double entendre that Gladys is actually getting some. 
Now, if anyone says you're being mean it would imply that Gladys isn't pretty or attractive enough.... Er, I suppose if Gladys isn't known to be in a relationship it could mean she's a slut.... That probably drinks..... socially. You know, because beer goggles.
