A teeny tiny bit NSFW.
I am 21 weeks pregnant, and after receiving lots of shifty glances at my belly, I invited my colleagues to ask me anything. They did not disappoint.
Do nipples leak during foreplay?
Not so far, although hearing a baby crying can trigger breastmilk production. Some breast pumps even allow you to record your baby's cries and play them back while pumping to help your milk come in.
So basically, once the baby's born I'll be having sex with earplugs in, otherwise things are going to get very niche in the bedroom.
Do you sometimes think it’s a bit creepy that there’s a thing growing inside you?
Only when the baby swirls around and does somersaults – it's nauseating and feels a bit like a jellyfish is up in there. When he lodges his foot in my ribs it's less creepy and more like having a badly behaved tenant.
Do you already love the baby?
Definitely. It's hard to explain how exactly. Think about how you feel about a cherished relative you haven't seen in a while. Now imagine that you've never actually met that relative, and that they're kicking the hell out of your cervix.
Look, I did say it was hard to explain.
