I am a queer coparenting mama to Dickens Jr. Doodler by day, 911 dispatcher by night. All my favorite shows look better on Tumblr. I am two years and 450K words deep into constructing a fanfic called Ages and I’m never giving up on it. Bering & Wells.
My mom was, and still is, often fond of saying those sorts of things to me. :-/
However, she usually says things like that more negatively framed, not the more light-hearted way you mean here. And I imagine tons of pregnant women can empathize! =)

My kid is 8 months old and I feel this. She is the best little thing in the world, but man, being pregnant is not all glowing and flowers and shit.
“You may leave me now.” I’m sorry, I know being in pain sucks, but that line made me die laughing.
