Up until my late 20s, I thought of pregnancy the same way I thought of any STD, but with a dose of the movie “Alien.” Something foreign with a will of its own gestates inside you, siphoning all your nutrients, changing your behaviors (like many diabolical parasites), finally clawing its way out, leaving you maimed and possibly even dead.

This is exactly how I feel now!

My go-to cringe example of is more “The Midwich Cuckoos” than Alien, but co-signed!!
(I love Michelle Tea. So much. And it’s nice to know that things can change, and that I’m not necessarily locked into my initial 21-year-old disgust reaction. I like the body mod notion.)
