People have been so extremely shitty to her and her form upon returning to tennis, I’ve always loved Naomi but now I’m rooting for her twice as hard

Babies are so cute and raising them is an experience. But pregnancy? No ty, God FORBID, I rebuke it etc.

When I was pre-med, we had to learn about pregnancy in detail and all of us were immediately disillusioned. It's terrifying what the female body has to go through. Babies are great and everything but there is a reason why older books called a fetus a parasite. I remember there was one stage where the fetus needs calcium so that comes from the mother's skeleton and leads to low bone density. Also diabetes is an issue for some women and it can either be temporary or permanent. Like.... this does not sound fun!

I thought I always wanted kids when I was younger, once my friends started having them and were honest about what it’s like being pregnant and giving birth, I was like “yeah, no. I’m good”. Plus seeing what it’s like to raise babies and kids, again, I’m good. Honestly, as millennial women we were lied to about all of, so many important details omitted. But I guess most of us were raised by boomers so…

I think it's also that the generation of women before me just straight up don't remember raising a baby either. My friend's sister has brain fog around her pregnancy and the first year of raising her baby. And anytime I ask my mom about pregnancy or details of being a baby, she's like.... I honestly don't remember anything. Also she raised us for a bit in India and she had 5 brothers and sisters and her mom who helped her take breaks. Raising a kid in America w/out that community and where everyone works long hours is not it for me.

Fuck, leave women (anyone!) alone.

I’ve only needed to have out-patient surgeries; the most recent of which was in 2021. I was extremely active leading up to the surgery, but clearly nowhere near Naomi’s level.
I “put on” 11 pounds the day after surgery. My MD brain realized later it was water weight from surgery & the meds. A few days later and I’m feeling fine. I decided to try working out. Y’all I had no stamina.

All of this to say…. This was a quick procedure on my body and it took weeks to recover. Now let’s increase that exponentially for pregnancy & birth….
I’m at the age where my period exhausts me.
I just how much we downplay pregnancy & its effects on women’s bodies.

I feel like the younger generations are doing a great job at talking about how truly traumatic the whole pregnancy and giving birth experience is and not sugar coating it like our parents and grandmas did. I feel like there has been better strides about pregnancy and childbirth the past decade because of it.

The "But it's all worth it" comment should be retired.

[krystiocracy]

just the thought of an epidural gives me hives. god bless y'all that do it but needles just freak me out too much

You’d think so, but when I joined these mom groups I wanted relatable mom friends but it made people very uncomfortable. No one really echoed my feelings and kind of brushed me off with the whole “oh but it’s so worth it!”

Like bitch, is it??
