1. If you are unaware that you are carrying a child until it falls out of you, you are probably not well suited to parenthood.
2. This is not good entertainment. It's a modern day freak show like the rest of reality TV.
I'm not going to lie, I have been hypnotized by the train wreck that is "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant" on TLC. Not because I'm some reality show junkie, but because I cannot for the life of me fathom carrying around a PERSON inside me for 9 months only to be SHOCKED when it frees itself from my loins.
The best part of this show is the "in retrospect" segment. They always go something like this: "In retrospect, the insatiable appetite for anchovy eclairs was a little odd," or "I thought I had gas, you know, the kind of gas that feels like a tiny little person is kicking you from the inside".
And I can't figure out what is worse, the seemingly infinite pool of women who have no clue they're incubating a human being or TLC for pretending this is something we should all be watching.
That's all for today. I've got to go eat some chocolate coated pickles. (Just kidding mom.)
Oh my god, I can't beleive this show! I haven't been able to sit through an entire episode yet, but every time I see a piece of it I am just thinking to myself, "who are these people?"
