Pregnancy Q&A

This was posted on a pregnancy forum I frequent. I figured a lot of you out there could probably appreciate it as much as me!





Should I have a baby after 35?
~No, 35 children are enough.


Can a mother get pregnant while nursing?
~Yes, but it’s much easier if she removes the baby from her breast and puts him to sleep first.


My husband and I are very attractive. I’m sure our baby will be beautiful enough for commercials. Whom should I contact about this?
~Your therapist.


I’m two months pregnant now. When will my baby move?
~With any luck, right after he finishes high school.


How will I know if my vomiting is morning sickness or the flu?
~If it’s the flu, you’ll get better.


Since I became pregnant, my breasts, rear-end, and even my feet have grown. Is there anything that gets smaller during pregnancy?
~Yes, your bladder.


What is the most common pregnancy craving?
~For men to be the ones who get pregnant.


What is the most reliable method to determine a baby’s sex?
~Childbirth.


The more pregnant I get, the more often strangers smile at me. Why?
~‘Cause you’re fatter than they are.


My wife is five months pregnant and so moody that sometimes she’s borderline irrational.
~So what’s your question?


What’s the difference between a nine-month pregnant woman and a model?
~Nothing, if the pregnant woman’s husband knows what’s good for him.


I normally wear a size 34-C bra. Now that I’m pregnant, should I continue to wear a bra?
~Not if you don’t mind switching in the future to a size 34-Long.


Do I have to have a baby shower?
~Not if you change the baby’s diaper very quickly.


Under what circumstances can sex at the end of pregnancy bring on labor?
~When the sex is between your husband and another woman.


What position should the baby be in during the ninth month of pregnancy?
~Head down, pressing firmly on your bladder.


My childbirth instructor says it’s not pain I’ll feel during labor, but pressure. Is she right?
~Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.


When is the best time to get an epidural?
~Right after you find out your pregnant.


How long is the average woman in labor?
~Whatever she says, divided by two.


Is there any reason I have to be in the delivery room while my wife is in labor?
~Not unless the word “alimony” means anything to you.


What does it mean when the baby’s head is crowning?
~It means you feel as though not only a crown but the entire throne is trying to make its way out of you.


What are forceps?
~Giant baby tweezers.


Does labor cause hemorrhoids?
~Labor causes anything you want to blame it for.


I’m modest. Once I’m in the hospital to deliver, who will see me in that delicate position?
~Authorized personnel only - doctors, nurses, orderlies, photographers, florists, cleaning crews, journalists, etc.


Where is the best place to store breast milk?
~In your breasts.


What does it mean when a baby is born with teeth?
~It means that the baby’s mother may want to rethink her plans to nurse.


What are the terrible twos?
~Your breasts after your baby stops nursing cold turkey.


What is the best time to wean the baby from nursing?
~When you see teeth marks.


What is the grasp reflex?
~The reaction of new fathers when they see a new mother’s breasts.


What causes baby blues?
~Tanned, hard-bodied bimbos.


What is colic?
~A reminder for new parents to use birth control.


What are night terrors?
~Frightening episodes in which the new mother dreams she’s pregnant again.


Our baby was born last week. When will my wife begin to feel and act normal again?
~When the kids are in college.


Is there anything I should avoid while recovering from childbirth?
~Yes, pregnancy.
