I think if people were watching it to see strippers, they'd have been really bored through a lot of it.

Yes please. I'm hot and my throat hurts.

Ok, I figured out how to get Kindle-only stuff on my phone and downloaded the first book just in time for a 12-hours-of-travelling day. Hurray!

That's good to know. I've never really properly addressed it — when I've tried to tell people about it in the past, they've always said "you're not pregnant, so stop worrying about it until you are" or "of course you're scared of labour; that's normal, it's scary". It would be good to be able to have a serious…

God, I basically drink that now. She was right: I *do* like babyccinos!

Exactly. Getting married didn't change my life at all (especially because we still couldn't live in the same country). I've tried to gently say that friends I've known pre- and post-pregnancy really haven't changed at all, to no avail!

YES! I'm 31 — over the years I've known tons of women who've been pregnant, and the majority of basically clearly the same person before and after (even after four kids). I've never known any of them to suddenly change their vocabulary or anything like that (one recent mum now has a Pinterest board that's cutesier…

I do want to have a baby — I think I just need to figure out a way to deal with it. And in the meanwhile we are definitely preventing it from happening for other reasons. I do need to discuss it with him; I know — I've just had the fear for so much longer than I've had the husband that it'll be hard. And it's hard to…

I think it's just frothy milk! And I was told that asking for a tiny cup of frothy milk was not enough, you HAVE to call it a babyccino.

Thank you. You're definitely right. It's been really worrying me because I know I have to discuss it with him… I've had this terror much longer than I've had the husband, so it's nerve-wracking. It's not really the pregnancy thing that scares me (although obviously it's a big deal and massive changes etc etc — I feel…

YES!!! I might say that next time. The word "babyccino" somehow came up once in a conversation and I said I wasn't fond of it, and someone insisted that I'd change my mind once I was a mother. I said, "actually, I really can't imagine myself ever seriously ordering one in a coffee shop under any circumstances…

My mum had caesareans for my sister and me, too… maybe that's why I'm so horrified by anything else? I've been freaking out about it really badly since I was 14 or so. I think it's incredibly difficult to get one unless there's a medical reason for it, though, so I'm a bit fucked.

Me too. Since I was a kid I've known I would want a caesarean, and I've actively tried to change my feelings on it many times and I still can't.

I'm really, really hoping that will happen for me. I've lost so much sleep over it over the past… fuck, 18 or so years! I do want to have kids but I'm worried I might actually go completely crazy with fear.

Your comment made me wonder why I don't assume I'll just adopt, because the idea of birth horrifies me so much, and then I realised that one of my primary reasons for wanting to go through with an actual pregnancy myself was because so many people have said patronising things to me about how I can't understand this,…

Yeah, I think I remember it because it surprised me so much.

Yes. On several occasions I've seen a pregnant woman passing by and subsequently got myself so freaked out that I've been physically sick or fainted. But, I somehow really do want to have a baby myself — I don't know how I'm going to sort it out. My husband doesn't know anything about my fear.

I haven't read that much about KM being pregnant but I definitely read the "she wants a natural birth" thing a few times.

Yep. In London I see plenty of women without make up (or with make up that I can't tell is there) and then I go home to the suburbs and WHOA! THE FOUNDATION LINES! My own sister wears thick foundation that stops, unblended, at the side of her face, and many other local girls do too. Full-on, extra obvious make up all…

I had no idea they were supposed to look like boobs. And now I know, I still don't see it.
