What is the world of advertising coming to?

So, seeing as I'm a veritable Pregnancy Test Commercial aficionado (ok, that was a lie, but stay with me here), I feel as though I have the right, nay, the compulsion to share with you the latest Pregnancy Test Commercial that has graced my television set.

I have forgotten already what particular brand it is, but I want some, because it bosts the ability to tell you your baby-making status---

---are you ready for this---

"Even if you're only a little bit pregnant".

That is a word for word transcription, folks. Apparently this test can detect even a "little bit" of pregnancy.

Now, luckily for us, the commercial does not say what "a little bit pregnant" actually is, so we can leave it up to our imagination.

Now, my theory is that it can detect a pregnancy in which you will only have "a little bit" of a baby-- i.e. a baby born without arms, or without a small intestine, or some other bizarre deformity.

I pose you this question: What does it mean to be "only a little bit pregnant"?
