You all wept with me when I wept, so now you're going to get to rejoice with me while I rejoice, darn it!
Yes, I know it's early, and I know that there's a lot that can go awry, but for this moment, I'm happy.
That's a baby bump. Please, for the love of all that is holy, quit p0rn. Pregnant women need to gain weight to have healthy babies. Whether you find them attractive is utterly irrelevant.
Love, I know I'm not beautiful. I've got the curves of a fence post. I have stretch marks from giving birth twice. I have scars from an emergency salpingectomy.
But there's one thing that makes me a thousand times more of a "pretty woman" than these gents.
I'm actually a woman.
I was homeschooled. I paid for college by tutoring state-schooled students in calculus. I score 135-140 on IQ tests. I graduated summa cum laude with a degree in chemistry & an emphasis in secondary education. Tell me exactly why I wouldn't be qualified to educate my children.
Homeschooling is for low iq mouth breathers who know their kids will pass them up intellectually once they reach the 3rd grade.
You're raising ignorant, backwards, socially retarded kids who will be incompetent in, & terrified of, the real world.
If you can buy a book from a chain bookstore, it's not banned. If you can buy it on Amazon, it's not banned.
For those ignorant of history, when a book is banned, it means you can be arrested for selling, trading, or possessing it.
Ladies!
How many of yโall have had a miscarriage? Almost a third of pregnancies end with one.
Republicans want to send women to jail for miscarriages. There are many reasons why the female body gets rid of a pregnancy.
Mayo Clinic cites the number one reason, โMost
You can cut and facet glass so it looks like a diamond. You can set it in a gold band and try to pass it off as a diamond ring. You may fool 99% of the people who see it. But it will never be a diamond.
I will state up front, this is a trans woman.
Her name is Hunter Schafer.
And the GC crowd is adamant that she should use the male bathroom. They would also say that they could totally tell that she was trans, I doubt it, but thatโs what they say.
If Hunter walked up to
I'm a stay at home mom who's currently pregnant & has two small kids. My husband makes less than $50k a year. We're not just fine, we're great. If we can do it, almost anyone can. Sure, you don't have a lot of luxuries, but you find out they're not that great in the first place.
Stay at home mom with no additional qualifications thinks she's better at teaching than those with educational degrees. Religion really is a poison to our society.
Thanks for warning women everywhere to avoid a relationship with men like you.
If we are subjected to the horror & violence of rape, become pregnant, & have the courage to keep & love that baby, the last thing we need is a man-child trying to force us to abort or give them up.
If my baby isn't currently alive at 18 weeks, who just kicked me?
If my baby isn't currently human at 18 weeks, what species is he?
If my baby isn't an individual at 18 weeks, why does he have a different blood type?
If you are afraid of pregnancy, it's 100% avoidable. No one is stopping you from practicing celibacy. What you should be prevented from doing is killing the new human being your consensual actions were designed to produce.
Sorry, wrong answer. You do, in fact, have a duty of care to your offspring. Why? Because you're the reason they're dependent on you in the first place.
Somehow we can grasp that this little one is alive before birth. ๐ค Is it only humans we feel the need to draw that arbitrary and obviously incorrect line with?
My husband saved his virginity for me. He was 29 on our wedding night. It was the single greatest gift any human being has ever given me. It isn't just men who long for someone who doesn't have sexual baggage.
Being a virgin is embarrassing when you are well into adulthood.
Adult virgins for either male or female just shows you aren't really capable of attracting mates, and/or you don't have the appropriate psychological functioning to have normal, stable adult relationships.
Why would a wife want a man as a husband that she knows he had lots of sexual past? I donโt see how that make a man a prize of value? Especially if he is Christian?
Do me a favor and hold this card for me
Okay, real talk here.
I'm Protestant, but really wish that my church had a small daily service like the daily Mass the local Catholic church does. Not the production of the weekend service, but a few hymns and a short reading and devotion, followed by prayer.
Is this strange?
It's my birthday and I'm carrying my precious son or daughter in my womb right now. My husband is making breakfast and the kids are happily helping him scramble eggs. This family is the best birthday gift I think I could ever get.

It's almost like sex should be reserved for a committed, long-term relationship with someone you have learned to know and trust...

We cannot allow a world where our daughters and granddaughters have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers. These 2 little girls are the main reason I fight every single day for womenโs rights. Will you join me in the fight?
If you're a human being who supports the starvation, dismemberment, and poisoning of humans in the womb, you are a traitor to your species and common decency and should feel ashamed of yourself.
Question: Has anyone encountered a "pro-choicer" on here who believes in any limits to abortion? Seems I've only come across the ones who think it's perfectly fine to abort a baby two seconds before birth.
Fun fact: The electoral college was established so large states wouldn't be able to tyrannically push their will on smaller ones. It's the same reason we have the Senate. It's so California can't unilaterally force policies that led to feces on their streets on the rest of us.

Al Gore won 543,895 more votes than George W. Bush.
Hillary Clinton won 2,868,686 more votes than

It started with "Just tolerate our behavior whether or not you agree." Then it was "Affirm our behavior as completely right and normal." Now it's "Participate in our s*xual fet*sh or you're a bigot."
If we all know a kangaroo is born in what's technically the embryonic stage and has enough awareness of its surroundings to climb unassisted from its mother's birth canal to her pouch, why do people claim that a prenatal human is completely not sentient until birth?
@MiddleearthMixr
The word "love" is so cheap in our world that we have boiled away all meanings save one, Eros. Yet when we read of brotherly affection, we know that's love. We just can't comprehend any love without sexual desire. So the loyalty of Sam is perverted in their minds to mere lust.
Dear Twitterverse, the wombless male body isn't the default for all of humanity, and women shouldn't treat it like it is. Our bodies are literally designed in every aspect to conceive, bear, and nourish children. Stop acting like pregnancy is unnatural. You know better.
Reminder: If you can go to the store or online and purchase a certain book, it is not banned.
Removing pornography from school libraries is hardly book-burning.
Today I've been married to my best friend for seven years. Here's hoping we make it to 70. I can't imagine who I would be if I'd never met him, and I don't want to. I love that man so very much.
Oh come off your high horse. Pregnancy is less dangerous than garbage collection, but I don't see any of you burning your own trash to keep from "sacrificing" your sanitation worker's life.
When someone calls a fetus a clump of cells, this is what they're talking about. โฌ๏ธ This is a picture of a baby at the earliest point at which they're considered a fetus.
In the fetal stage of development, all organs and organ systems are formed and just need to grow and mature.
Truth. I've lost two babies. One to miscarriage, one to ectopic pregnancy. The pro-life side came alongside me with my most recent loss and helped me get through. I've had abortion advocates call me a murderer or else tell me that the children I lost weren't really children.
Hey, other moms with boys, when you're looking at colleges, are you telling your sons to practice abstinence so they don't end up having their unborn children (your grandchildren, by the way) killed without even being allowed to say they want to keep their baby?
What is with the feminist viewpoint that SAHMs are setting ourselves up for disaster? Do they not realize we have agency in who we choose to marry? Do they not think we plan for the future?
Remember, JK Rowling owes Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson and Rupert Grint her entire legacy.
She should be more grateful to them.
Without their solid performances in the films, Rowling would just be another random childrenโs author with a movie adaptation flop to her name.
This article in the obstetrics and gynecology journal Birth argues that "sexed language" in midwifery "causes harm to all who birth" because it "reflects an ideology of unchangeable sex binary" and perpetuates "colonialist, heteropatriarchal, and universalist" notions of "sex and
In many ways, who I was before my children were born is completely different than who I am now. And I'm glad that someone who will make millions over the course of his career is taking the time to recognize the most important vocation of all, motherhood.
Pebble is 11 weeks old! (13 weeks of pregnancy)
Vocal cords are developing.
Pebble is practicing breathing.
The intestines are absorbing glucose & water from the amniotic fluid.
Heartbeats: over 12 million.
Unfortunately, abortion is still legal at this stage in my state.
Nope, not by a very long shot. The leading cause of death for children is abortion. Abortions even surpassed deaths by cancer in 2021, making them the second greatest cause of all human death in the US after heart disease.
Gun violence is already the leading cause of death for children and teens in our country. This will make mass shootings deadlier.
SCOTUS has blood on its hands. This unhinged Supreme Court needs to stop legislating from the bench.
@EndWokeness
Girls can like trucks, flannel, hunting, contact sports, and blue. They can dislike skirts, heels, make-up, dance, and pink. They can even say they don't want to be girls.That doesn't magically make them boys.
I should know. That was me.

Why are we doing this again, Twitter? Mothers who have experienced miscarriages lost babies. Not potential babies. Not "blobs of cells." Not "tissue." FREAKING BABIES. And it is hell. Do you enjoy stomping on our grief and telling us it's not that bad?
Thereโs nothing like the bond between a mother and her child.
Did you know that babies are biologically programmed to recognize their moms and it all starts in the womb?
Babies feel their mother in the womb.
Babies hear their mother in the womb.
The bond starts in the womb,
Pebble's first picture!
He or she wasn't being very cooperative in giving us a nice profile, but the heartbeat is strong and everything looks great. ๐ฅฐ
Allowing babies to live is *checks notes* fascist now.
In all seriousness, I cannot imagine a greater abuse of power than killing an innocent human being simply for existing.
Pebble is 5 weeks old (7 weeks of pregnancy.) His or her brain is developing rapidly, which is why an embryo at this stage has a large head compared to their body. His or her little limbs are growing cartilage, which will eventually ossify into the skeleton.

I'm happily married to such a man, and we have two kids so far. My only regret is that I didn't meet him earlier. (And yes, I am a stay at home mom and homemaker.)
Mourning a child lost during pregnancy is just like mourning anyone else. You mourn the moments you had. You mourn the moments you didn't have. Sometimes at odd moments, you feel a hole where your child should have been. If you're lucky, you get a grave to cry at.
@BryanKemper
I didn't ask that, we clearly disagree on why humans have a right to live. I do not deny that fetus or zygote is a human being. I just ask how can you mourn a fetus? That's why I asked the questions
That's a gestational sac. Here's what's missing. They are a human being. Their lungs began forming at 3-5 weeks. Their brain began forming at about 5 weeks. They survive perfectly well in the environment appropriate for their developmental stage. Just like you.
This is not a human being
It has no lungs
It has no brain
And can not survive on its own.
Why don't we implant this kleenex into a man's abdominal cavity.

If we believed kids every time they told us how they "identify," there would be a whole lot more T-Rexes running around.
Liking pants (or trucks, or blue, or flannel, or hunting) doesn't make you male.

What the proaborts just refuse to admit is that they know full well the baby they kill is a baby - that their entire argument is based solely on the subjective desire of the woman to keep the child she 99% willfully created. They simply donโt gaf. Ghastly.
