Nope! But it’s nice to know there’s another me out there in the world, feeling how I feel.

Yeah, it gets better... when the baby is no longer inside you.

I’m 37 weeks pregnant and have been somewhere in the middle ground this whole pregnancy. We announced on Facebook once we hit the second trimester at 14 weeks, and I do the very very occasional bump photo (maybe four total the whole pregnancy?) but mostly I have nothing good to say about pregnancy and I have figured…

You may be interested in my favorite baby size comparison website, Babysizer.com. I am currently 37 weeks pregnant, which means my kid is, according to Babysizer, the size of half a medium pizza. Or a Zack Morris Cell Phone.

Oh my god, this should come with a warning: do not watch if you are heavily pregnant lest you spend 10 minutes crying because HAPPY BABY BOOK AUNTIE DOLLY OMG

I’m hella pregnant right now and anything sets me off, but oh my god. Like, actually crying. WOMEN PROTECTING WOMEN, Y’ALL.

Honestly at that point just let her go. She’s fucking earned it.

I’m a middle school teacher. Before that I was a camp counselor. I knew I was destined to be a mom someday when I realized that neither of these jobs made me hate my life in general and being around children specifically.

I’m 29 weeks pregnant. We’re not finding out the sex of the baby. When people ask what we’re having, my response is“We’ve been told it’s probably human,” followed by a dead-eyed stare.

I literally clapped with glee when I read this. I was in the middle of administering a quiz to my 8th grade history students. It was very embarrassing. (They were super excited to hear about it, though. I spread my Andrew Jackson hate wherever I go.)

I was in a Facebook group called “Alexander Hamilton Was The Foxiest Of The Federalists” back in the day, when Facebook groups were a thing. This whole everything makes me SO happy.

This was my junior year of high school and now I want to go cry because WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE NOSTALGIC ABOUT 2002 FOR ANOTHER 6 YEARS AT LEAST OK.

This is my favorite thing I’ve learned about while I’ve been pregnant so far. Apparently enough people asked about this old wives’ tale that the research hospital at Johns Hopkins was like, “Okay, guess we’ll study it!” And it actually turned out to be A Thing.

This is beautifully put. Bravery is important, and fear can be life-saving if you listen to it in the right way.

This has been me all my life. I can’t do scary movies, but I’m pretty much fearless when it comes to climbing on stuff/exploring. I get really bad nightmares if I even see scary movie ads. I always attribute it to an overactive imagination.

You really should. Basically every other online forum I’ve found has been just incredibly off-putting. This is the only one I’ve felt was full of relatively normal people. And congratulations on your pregnancy!

Bel Edwards’ wife is a teacher and he’s a huge union supporter. The LEA was instrumental in getting him elected. He’s not gonna union bust.

Right? They’re all just so nice. It’s like the exact opposite of the crap you get in every other expectant mother forum. “You’re not eating organic? YOU’RE A TERRIBLE MOM.” “You’re going to vaccinate your children? YOU’RE A TERRIBLE MOM.” “Have you heard about essential oils? No? YOU’RE A TERRIBLE MOM.”

I’m a part of reddit’s Baby Bumps subreddit for pregnant ladies, and the woman who figured it out is also a part of our community - she said she knew what was up because she’s also pregnant and has noticed her fitbit doing the same thing! Baby Bumps is basically the only subreddit I’m on these days, but it’s a great…

I’m currently gestating a child right now, and this is exactly how I’ve always planned to talk about sex with my future children. It’s nice to get the perspective of a teen whose parents did it this way. My mom was always frank and medically accurate with me, and also was upfront about the fact that sex could happen…
