The part of pregnancy I think would scare me the most is not the potential medical complications, but the fact that pregnancy is apparently a signal to all strangers to think they can know all your business because you’re carrying a fetus.
“When are u due” “what’s his name” “are you breastfeeding” “where are u delivering” “can I feel him kick” and EVERYONE thinks they’re entitled to know just bc they can see I’m pregnant. Why tf would I tell a stranger my child’s birthday, name & birthplace

Oh my GOD the touching thing! Like why do people think once there’s a baby in someone’s belly it becomes a petting zoo!

One of my husband’s family went to rub my bump & said “omg you’ve gotten so big!” So I rubbed his stomach and said “omg you too!” And got called disrespectful like the irony is crazy

My plan for that is asking them to”why are you touching me” in a deadpan voice. Just keep repeating the question until they realize it’s weird or stop talking to me.
