The whole idea of bringing another human being into the world is terrifying. The process of it is probably worse. It is definitely not for everyone.

1. Vomiting. It sucks. But it's good.

Vomiting is a good sign of being pregnant. But it sucks.

2. You have to avoid eating certain foods, like sushi, hot dogs, certain cheeses, meats, coffee and alcohol.

That..sucks.

3. You might have food cravings, that will drive people up the wall.

Because..hormones.


4. Your body is going to change. A lot. For the next nine months!

Your hair gets lovelier.

The rest of your body changes.

5. You might outgrow your shoes.

But don't throw out your Louboutin's yet. They may shrink back.

6. Diastasis Recti is a real thing.

Hernia is very real.

7. Pain. Giving birth is painful.

If Katherine Heigl can do it in a movie, you can too!

8. You might get terribly itchy everywhere.


You can't get enough of scratches.

9. New born babies will require a lot of diaper changing.

That's the cue to change his diaper, please.

10. They can be cute, but they'll create a mess.

Order of the day: mischief.

11. Throw the idea of sleep out of the window for the next 2 years.

Even if they sleep through the night, they won't give you a moment's rest.

12. Breastfeeding is hard, and you'll be drained.

Hang in there, mommy. You can do it!

13. Their screams are probably the most annoying sounds in the world.

Very, very loud too.

14. Going for a trip with them is going to be extra hard work.


Packing for them is tough. You'll have to bring everything!

15.  It takes very long to lose baby weight. Sometimes months or years.


Not everyone is a Jessica Alba.
