I don't mean to be rude but I don't see what the big deal is. Almost half of the people on the planet can become pregnant and the process of becoming pregnant is both fun and easy to accomplish for most women. Sure, babies look cute at first but the majority of them grow up to become normal, boring adults. You should also think of the impressionable young women who may be on here and then want to become pregnant when they are not prepared to do so. I suppose it has something to do with being a guy but perhaps someone could explain this to me.

I am with you. Some of the girls/women on this are sooo ignorant and ask the dumbest question about being pregnant that I feel truly sorry for the guy they are trying to get pregnant with and the future of their child. I mean they say "oh, I slept with a guy last night and my breast are tender and I am going to the bathroom all the time, am I prego?" It does not happen overnight. Some of the girls/women truly need to get educated on pregnancy or at least grow up and get a little brighter on the subject prior to just having intercourse and talking about it on yahoo. babies should not be having babies! "Almost every other question is I had unprotectected sex do you think im prego?" well lets think about it- unprotected sex hmmm - That is a tough one to answer. HA HA

first you will never get it cuz your a guy. even women who have never been pregnant cant understand it. You have to have been through it. second, let me tell you that the process of prenancy is NOT fun nor is it easy. Do you think throwing up all day not being able to keep even water down for more than 3 months is fun? how about not having energy to even walk from the back of the house to the front? how about the emotional swings that can cause you to laugh at nothing all the way to being in a deep depression you just want to die? not to mention you have to push out something the size of a small water mellon out a hole the size of your nose and tear everything while doing that...does that sound fun? and true a child grows up to be a boring adult...but you made that baby and its a part of you and its probably the best thing you will ever do in your life..thats also why its a big deal. some get pregnant and are not ready for it...your right but either way its a miracle and a blessing. but no matter what i or any other person will tell you, you will not fully get it. Im in the process of going through it myself for the first time and let me tell you, i have found a new respect and admiration for all women who have ever had children. its really a major thing.

I'm pretty sure it takes more that just a woman to get pregnant! When a woman is pregnant there are many things going on with your body that a man will never comprehend. Just to feel another human being moving inside of you is a miracle. I guess we become obsessed with pregnancy because it is a very overwhelming experience, and we need advise from others who have gone through it before. Luckily, there are some men in the world who know how to and want to get excited and share in the wonderful experience. Even though beautiful babies grow up to be normal adults, having my son (who is 2) and being pregnant with my daughter (due in 9 days) are the best things I have done besides marrying my husband! I seriously hope you get to go through this experience with someone you love one day. You are obviously not ready now, but I hope you will be one day.

Well, young unprepared woman are usually stressed about it because they don't want to be pregnant but may think they are, so they are worried. Older, married (usually) woman who want to become pregnant sometimes have trouble or it just takes a while. If you have sex "at the right time to concieve" you still only have a 20% chance of conceiving each month. So, it's stressful because it doesn't happen right away for some women and then they worry that there is something wrong with them or their partner. (Especially the older women get this becomes more of a concern.) In addition, after conception, women can't tell if they are pregnant for two weeks, so it's a stressful time because they don't know and there isn't anything they can do about it.
Hope this helps.

Honestly, I wasn't obsessed when I was pregnant - about being pregnant. Everyone else I knew obsessed about me being pregnant, not me. It was VERY uncomfortable for me the entire time, and yes, it was cute when people rubbed my belly, but I was ready to have my son. I do have to add though, the fact that I was eating healthy, not doing drugs/alcohol, not smoking, not doing anything bad during my pregnancy, it made me feel very proud of myself for even cutting out caffeine in my diet! When not pregnant, I don't normally cut out caffiene, so doing all of this, made me feel so proud that I was taking care of my baby in every possible way, and when he turned out super healthy, it made me feel even more proud. Now, you constantly worry that somethign will happen to your baby when you are pregnant.
Anyways, you will never know what it's like, so you shouldn't be rude to those who are joyous over being pregnant. When you become a father some day, you'll have lot's of questions yourself... that's why my husband and I come on here. We are first time parents, and are curious how others would respond to their children. Gives you a feel of what to do, what not to do, but every child is different, so there are always many solutions. As for the young women wishing to become pregnant, if they have good parenting, then they will know when the right time for them is. If not, then they'll find out the hard way, because one thing my mom never told me- and maybe because her children weren't the same as mine... was how hard it really is. My son was colicky at birth for the first 2 1/2 months, then he screams and has to be held all the time when he teeths, and now we are at the temper tantrum and also not sleeping in his crib stage.... so yes it is a lot of work, not what I expected as far as all of that, but I love my son with all my heart, and I love taking care of him and finding new things to do to make him happy. and honestly- not every adult is boring- maybe you and the ppl you are around are... but not all adults are boring because there is never a dull moment with my family and my husband's... we are always giggling and having lot's of fun together. To go along with the young women wanting to get pregnant, I'm sure they see all these questions on what to do with their children if crying non-stop, teething, potty training... and will know it's not the easiest job in the world. But mainly with that, PARENTING... if parents let their children have sex all the time, don't teach them morals and values, and every repsonsibility you will have, then yes, teens will end up pregnant.Oh well, it's life. If you wish to have your own children, teach them well and take pride in knowing you did the best you could with them so they'll make good decisions in the long run. I was 23 when I became pregnant- not sure how young you mean... but I'm glad I was that age, it was the right time for me.
If this category really ticks you off so much, go to a different one! lol It's that easy! Goodluck!

Demographics, my friend. The majority of people on here are young (child bearing years), and naive, impressionable airheads. Rather than make important decisions involving life and death on their own, after weighing the merits, they instead look to their friends, peers, the media, etc.
Too many young girls think that having a baby will make them: loved by someone; keep their man (ha!); be considered a grown up; or at the very least, get them out of school.
On the other hand, when you are pregnant, you tend to get very obsessive about the whole thing. Witness the phenom of women who act like they are the very first and most amazing person in the world who has ever done this!

When you have something growing and moving in you and YOU are responsible for it's health, then post this question.
When you have to go through hours of the most painful thing you could EVER, EVER, EVER, feel, then post this question.
The impressionable young women (or kids) on this site might learn something. If they are too young to comprehend then that is when their parents should step in. If you have read more posts in this section, any youngun that is wanting to get pregnant is put on the cyber flogging platform.
You must have posted this just to be a jerk b/c every point you tried to make is ridiculous.

Have you ever had someone depend on you so completely that even the tiniest mistake on your part could change them for life or even hurt or kill them? Someone you love so much you would die for them? No? Then you could never understand why women care so much about pregnancy and childbirth. Sure women do this all over the world, but babies die all over the world too, because many women are ignorant of the things that are dangerous in pregnancy and childhood. I think its great that so many moms out there are looking for answers!

no longer all women folk. I went by 2 pregnancies, or maybe with the reality that it became a joyful time..i did not take care of infant showers and that i hate the human beings imagine they can only contact your abdomen because your pregnant. babies are lovable. organic instinct. men do not see it that way because it screams duty and youthful men have a tendency to stay away from duty altogether.

well first of all. it is not so true that becoming pregnant is an easy accomplishment. for lots of women (myself included) it takes a very long time for that to happen with alot of trying. and some women can't even become pregnant. being pregnant is scary and exciting all at the same time. a women has so many hormones racing through her body she is unsure what is going to happen next. and the "obsession" could be because a women is growing a human being in their bodies. that is pretty cool. and you being a man would never understand that.
