Future Baby Mamas

Please note: 2008 is the the year of future baby mamas in Hollywood. Halle Berry, Nicole Richie, Jessica Alba, Christina Aguilera, Nicole Kidman...some are married, some are not. But who cares? (Never mind also that I look like many of these women when I've had a large meal or PMSing.) But anyway, as the the world coos and aahs, it does, almost successfully, make pregnancy look like the easiest, coolest thing to happen to women since Sex & The City episodes. And it is "cool". But my understanding of pregnancy from the rest of the world is that it's a bitch. You swell up, you are insane for 9 months, you feel like some kind of alien host. Hey, I wanna have a kid someday, I just am not looking forward to my formerly slimmish ankles resembling an elephant's and stretch marks that put the San Andreas fault to shame. I doubt very much I'll look like a lolipop holding a Dum-Dum. But soon these babes will have their babies and will go back to their size -2 and I'll abhor the fact that these women have given birth and are still 10x skinnier than me.
