About the pregnancy cartoons

After many sleepless nights spent pondering the humorous nature of pregnancy, our yet-to-be-pregnant cartooning artist realized she was going to need some help from moms who'd been there. Happily, a beautiful collaboration between the artist and our snarky freelance mom blogger, the sarcastic journalist, sprung up to save the day! The humor was conceived together and each panel was hand-drawn by our relieved cartooning artist.

    this one was an obvious one and one of the first concepts i came up with. when i was starting to put all this stuff together, i was looking at the list of "typical symptoms" and my eyes just popped out of my head.

    i have no idea where the concept of a glowing pregnant woman came from-- pregnancy sounds more like a very evil nine month flu than anything else.

    This is perfect! This is something I think most pregnant women deal with!
    Everyone wants to know how you're doing, how you're feeling, and it's really hard not to be short with them.
    I always tell them exactly how I feel - "Pregnant."

    Hahaha the receptionist at the hospital asked me (about the 100th person) "How are you feeling?" and I said "well beside the back pain and feelings like I have a brick duct taped to my stomach, I feel GREAT"

    I hate this question because they talk to you like they want to be the first person you call when you go into labor.

    Jessica, that's really normal - so no worries. I didn't show at all until 18 weeks (and then people still looked shocked when I told them I was pregnant).

    Now that I'm a little farther - I find this cartoon hysterical.

    That is soooo me. I hate to admit it, but it annoys the heck out of me when people ask me such questions. And I just started to show at 19 weeks.

    I bought my daugher a maternity t-shirt that says it all - it's Happy Bunny (we love him) and underneat it just says "very uncomfortable, thank you." She is 21 weeks. My older daughter is 25 weeks and my daughter in law is 29 weeks, so I want to get one for each of them as well.

    I ususally just tell anyone who asks me this that I feel fat. And they say 'your not fat your pregnant'. and I say 'yeah, well I can't see my feet, and that makes me feel fat!' that tends to end the conversation. :)

    This is great but I love how you also added 'nosy strangers'. I'm only 10 weeks and I'm already feeling secretive. I don't want people asking me questions. I need to find a polite way to shoo people off!

    I must say, I love my Grandmother. God bless her little heart. I am 29 weeks pregnant with my second son and I saw her the other day. She asked me how I was feeling an I told her I was a little tired. She proceeded to tell me that I looked like crap and that I needed to put on makeup anytime I left the house. I was crushed because I actually spent time that morning fixing my hair AND makeup. I thought I actually looked better than most days! Shows what I know.

    I have decided next time some one rubs my belly i will reach out and rub their bum - when i get the funny look I will say "O sorry I thought we were pointing out everything fat...." heeee heee. But why do people think just cause it is sticking out so much that they can go ahead and rub it?????

    CARLIN... I hate that too. I went to the restroom at work the other day and this lady came out of the stall after me and came right up to me and rubbed my stomach. I wanted to vomit! I can't stand that in the first place, but, if your gonna do it, WASH YOUR HANDS FIRST!!!

    To the Jessica that wrote about being skinny and not showing. I feel you on that one. I am naturally small, so I hear from strangers that have overheard conversation, you're not big enough to be 14 weeks ( or however many weeks I am that day).

    I really only have family ask that. But when you go to a family gathering and you have to answer each person individually that gets a littly tiring. Other than that I'm pretty lucky, not too many people ask. About the belly rubbing the only people who do that is my hubby and my best friend. Lucky there too I guess.
