Last week, you were walking down the street and saw a complete stranger who looked pregnant. But you couldn’t quite tell. She had on a bulky winter coat. The winter has really thrown off your crazy infertile completely normal pregnancy radar.
The woman was wearing a large puffy coat and you stared at her belly as she walked passed you. Strange thoughts quickly ran through your mind: Is this woman having a baby or is it just her coat that’s making her look pregnant? Should I feel jealous of the complete stranger who could be pregnant?
Summer pregnancy radar is much more efficient. Woman at Walmart is wearing a tank top. Quick scan of her belly. Flat. Nope, not pregnant. Thank God. Woman at the drugstore wearing a t-shirt. Baby bump alert. She is definitely pregnant. Cue jealousy. Purchase large amounts of chocolate. Cry in the tampon aisle.
Winter pregnancy envy is just exhausting. So many puffy coats to stare at and wonder, is she pregnant? Fertility Tip: If you have winter pregnacy envy, try drinking a nice mug of spiked hot chocolate.
