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.

    originally, i was going to have the conversation taking place between two pregnant women, but i decided it would be better to make a little commentary on the choice "to have or not to have."

    there's not so much humor here as a quiet little political edge. i'm not trying to make a statement, just food for thought.

    Women like that use that as an excuse. Either they can't get pregnant, are having a hard time getting pregnant or haven't found a man who will get them pregnant.

    I have to say...I love this. My friends either have kids, or say that exact same thing. And it's not really something you want to hear when you're 29 weeks along and can barely get yourself off the couch. I can't even shave my legs without some serious acrobatic skills!!!

    My cousin took me out for a pedicure and she got a wax the other day and I swear we had this EXACT conversation at lunch afterwards. I had that same look on my face as that pregnant woman does.

    This reminds me of when my husband complains about having to make two trips to the car to get the groceries in instead of the usual one. You just kind of want to twist his nose and bop him on the head.

    WOW! It just shows how low some women go to make them feel better about themselves. I guess I found myself as not being a threat to other women around when I got pregnant. Before it was always just getting stared at for no reason when walking in the mall and now Its funny how likable I am now. So many woman smile and want to have chit chat with me so randomly. Does anyone see where I'm coming from? maybe its just me being a crazy pregnant lady. :)

    I get that all the time from my friends, so I just hit them with one harder: "Yeah, it's so exhausting having a loving husband around, and I do get tired from not having to work all day. Mother nature and I just chill and do what we do!" And then I smile really hard b/c the ones who try to make you feel bad, are the main ones who actually want what you have.

    or the ones who say, "Oh, you're so lucky you get bed rest for two weeks, then you get a vacation for 6 weeks after the baby is born. I wish I were having a baby" oh, and while I'm ranting... I hate when people say, "have you POPPED yet?" what a stupid term....

    I think most women are that way until they find the "right man" (or if accidental) they seem to be joyed by the fact that their with-child!! I think Most women would love to feel the love of a child and not just a lover/friend/relative! It's a different love that all you mother's out there know what I'm talking about - a truly UNDYING LOVE!!

    ** I was one of those who didnt want children and now I have a 10 mo. old and one on the way ***

    What is wrong with you? The people who are putting all of those disgusting porn sites on here. Get out of here. This is for expecting moms, not perves. I agree with the friends who say stuff like that. I haven't had anyone say that to me but I'm sure there will be someone.

    It's funny! I always used to say I never had the time because of work etc., but what I really meant deep down was that I was TERRIFIED at the very idea of all that responsibility. I even avoided getting a dog even though I adored dogs more than humans! Well, I'm still terrified... But thrilled =)

    I could not agree more Sophie! I'm having my third and I think I'm even more scared than when I found out I was expecting my other two. It's weird. You would think by now I would be over that but I'm not. Oh well another wonderful part of pregnancy is that once it's over you have the most adorable baby and most of your fears will disappear.
