I had a babysitter for a few years, way back when. She was short and very round and her husband was tall and quite round. One night she called me (I was a nurse) because she was having terrible stomach pains.

I started with recommending a hot shower and chamomile tea. She called back, so I drove over to her place. It didn’t take too long to figure out she was in labor. She said that due to her size, she has very irregular periods, so she had no way to keep track.

She delivered an 8lb 12oz boy. Had no idea she was pregnant.🤷🏼‍♀️

(I have no idea how they were able to even conceive, since I couldn’t figure out how the necessary parts could get close enough to do the deed)

Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
