    I want to burn any couple that says they (‘we’) are having a baby. no you’re not. the woman is having a baby. the man is not growing a human being for 9 months and pushing it out of a grape-sized hole. fuck off.

      I don’t mind “we are going to have a baby” because yes, after the baby is born, they will both, as parents, have a baby. For similar reasons I also give “we’re having a baby,” a pass. But “we are pregnant”? Ugh. No. No, no, no.

      Her tweet, her body, her call, imo. If he said it, I’d feel differently.

    It’s such a strange mix of emotions, hearing this news. Not for celebrities necessarily, but from friends— I am simultaneously over the moon happy for them, hopeful that another couple having trouble had success, and soul-crushingly devastated that I’m still not pregnant. An emotional Rubik's cube.

      I’m in a similar boat. A good friend and I both just had to go through surgeries (for different reasons) to try to get pregnant with our respective husbands. I know it is going to be hard if it works for one of us and not for the other. :(

      A friend I work with got married this summer. Her husband has survived testicular cancer— twice— and they were expecting a long journey to starting their family. We commiserated in our anxiety and discussions of odds and expenses. They got pregnant on their honeymoon, and found out today that it’s a boy! My husband and I have been trying for more than a year now, and he just had a varicocele repair surgery a month ago.

      I swing wildly between rational thought (it’s still early, we have time) and utter despair. I constantly wonder how much more I can take.

      It might seem silly to others, but I am grateful for the celebs who have been open about their struggles (Kim Kardashian, Jimmy Fallon). Everything about this process is so damn lonely.

      I don’t even know very much about them, but I remember reading an article about how they were trying to have a baby and having trouble...so when I read the headline I said (out loud), “YAY!” When people who really want a baby get a baby, that’s a definite YAY.

      YES. I am an elderly lady (OK NOT ELDERLY, but at the age where having a baby might be difficult, but I still may try in 2016, cross yr fingers for me) and when people who REALLY want to have a kid are able to have one, it is definitely cheer-worthy.

    Yay! I look forward to my social media feeds filling up with posts from my (white) basic b!tch acquaintances “squeeing” over the “cute, mixed babies” because everybody knows that “interracial babies are always the cutest!!!” (unless they’re too black).

    :\

      Srsly. Why. Just why do white girls think this is okay to say. “OH, you’re mixed with black! That’s beautiful, I wish I was mixed black too! Your kids will be gorgeous because they’ll be mixed!!”

      Bitch. No. Stahp.

      But it’s true. A mixed race baby is the best accessory a person could ever have. It’s the Chanel of babies.

    I may find the both of them insufferable*, but goddammit if I’m not happy for them!

      Btw I’m stealing that. Every time I’m PMSy or just generally want to hiss at someone, I’m gonna refer to myself as a Cave Troll.

      And then like demand payment in the form of soft pretzels or fries or something.

    If any celebrities can raise a well-adjusted, healthy, normal child, it’s these two.

        Just pair that picture with “I fucking hate you, John. Don’t you ever, ever touch me again” and you’ll have a fairly accurate preview of the labor.

      That’s going to be one gorgeous child.

      On a side note, I heard John Legend sing live once and my knees got weak. Never happened before. Velvet voice is the only description that comes close.
