33 Couples That Failed At Social Distancing And Revealed These “Quarantine Baby” Announcements
You've probably heard this joke a million times when the quarantine began: there's going to be a baby boom by the end of the year. Some laughed while nodding their heads and others thought it was impossible for couples to bring a new life into the world after seeing each other all day every day with no end in sight. But families are expanding. And creative parents-to-be are coming up with the funniest ways to announce their big news.
From saying they got the wrong kind of protection to little kids claiming their parents weren't good at social-distancing, its evident that some didn't lose their sense of humor during times of such great uncertainty.

This dude didn't listen when scientists told us corona was bad for you.
According to Dr. Melissa Richards, an OBGYN at Olmsted County Medical Center, the hospital is expected to hit 1,000 births in 2020, which is something OMC hasn't done in more than five years.
That being said, she believes the "boom" won't be as drastic as some predict. "I wouldn't call it a boom, but maybe a bump," Dr. Richards told KTTC. "In 2019, we had 58 deliveries in December," Dr. Richards said. "This year, we are tracking to deliver 80 patients."

Lyman Stone, a research fellow at the Institute for Family Studies, pointed out that “events that cause a large increase in deaths tend to cause a large decrease in births nine months later.” Which is the complete opposite of the popular belief that a major natural disaster would inspire Americans sensing their own mortality to grow their families.
The researcher cited natural disasters such as hurricanes and famines, as well as previous pandemics to support the claim, saying that would-be parents may be traumatized by fear or concerned about how they would care for children during difficult and uncertain times. Still, such declines are often temporary.

Large families are a lot of fun, there's never a boring moment. BUT we have gone from one billion to seven billion in only a century and a half. With modern medicine (yes, do read vaccines!) almost all children survive that childhood that used to be so treacherous. Queen Anne saw only one child reach eleven years of age and she had seventeen pregnancies.

I don't know why you were downvoted. It could be the opening of a baby-walking park, or the birth of a baby. And maybe I'm superstitious or a big worrier, but isn't it a little eerie to not announce the pregnancy at just 3 months with a name? I guess it's like tempting fate, in a way? Ingesting too much sci-fi/horror maybe...

Me: "Why am I the only one who isn't going to be a parent after quarantine?" Voice in my head: "Because you're single, you hate kids, and 50% of your time in lockdown has been given over to Animal Crossing." Me: "I got all the fossils, so it was totally worth it."

Please correct me if I'm wrong but if this baby is 24 weeks old it was conceived well before most countries went into quarantine (Reading July 3). Even if you include China which went into lockdown February 4th. Not to lessen the joy of their announcement.
Kristin 5 years ago
Some women do this type of weekly photo thing which compares the size of the fetus to a common household item (ex: At 24 weeks the baby is the size of a roll of toilet paper or at 30 weeks the baby is the size of a watermelon). Thank don’t think she was claiming to have gotten pregnant during COVID, just think she used it as a cute photo opportunity.

Personally, I would not want to be compared to a roll of toilet paper.

No, but its a play on the whole, my bab is the size of an orange... which actually makes less sense because oranges are all different sizes.

Many pregnant moms do this kind of weekly picture thing comparing the size of the fetus to common items (Ex: At 24 weeks the baby is the size of a roll of toilet paper or at 30 weeks-size of a small watermelon). She isn’t claiming to have gotten pregnant during COVID, she was just using what was going on in the world and made it into a cute pregnancy photo opportunity.
Snowy Tundra 5 years ago
The baby is probably safest inside. The parents may want to extend the pregnancy beyond the usual 40 weeks depending on how bad the outbreak is when she's due. The reference to toilet paper is apropos. I hope that the shortages ease by the time she gets to the 3rd trimester and baby starts using mom's bladder as a trampoline.
Kim Bush 5 years ago
It isn't usually up to the mother how long the pregnancy lasts. If the baby is determined it's time, it's time.

So as cute as these are.. it’s not as if couples in the same household are expected to socially distance...?
Laurie Stewart 5 years ago
I guess it depends on each family. My husband and I were both going to work each day, and because we were working with different people, we did in fact social distance as much as possible to keep each other and indirectly our coworkers safe. I have three autoimmune disorders, so we just decided to be especially careful, even within our own homes. We’re from MI, and in the beginning, one of the hardest hit states. Live just outside of Detroit, so one of the worst hit areas as well. We literally didn’t even give each other a kiss until maybe 3 weeks ago. Sit on opposite ends of couch, all of that. I can understand if people were staying at home and working remote, etc... but we just did what we felt was safest for us, and our coworkers.

Oh yes Iam sure those 2 babies lose sleep at night wondering why the word "fail" was in the EXACT same room as them. They will no doubt endure horrible hardships and suffer from sleepless nights and PTSD all because their careless, mean parents used this foreign word "fail' in the SAME room on the family chalk board. Should I call for help or are you gonna call for someone to save these unwanted gifts of GOD from torture.

Makes me more concerned that none of these couples seem to comprehend that you don't need to practice social distance within you OWN HOME (unless one or more of you has symptoms). Plus think of the fact that your kids will no doubt see these pictures at some point and there will be no doubt in their mind what so ever that you didn't want them in the first place...
