Whether you have previous experience as a parent or not, we can all agree that pregnancy isn't necessarily all that glorious. It's a beautiful moment in a parent's life as they eagerly await the arrival of their baby, but when we idealize it as something purely idyllic and miraculous, reality kicks in, and we start to realize it's not all roses and rainbows. Pregnancy can get messy, both for expecting women and the future fathers actively participating in this important event.

While outsiders may make assumptions about the experience of pregnancy, those who have had the chance to go through it know that it's not always what it seems. Fortunately, there are some very reliable sources that share honest yet funny facts about this blessed condition. Today, we've curated a new collection of chuckle-worthy posts shared online by mothers-to-be themselves, shedding light on some of the not-so-magical moments of pregnancy.
