If you're
the type to pay attention to tabloid fodder, then you've probably seen
these "riveting" headlines. Reality-star Kim Kardashian's pregnancy has
provided nonstop punch lines from the blogosphere to your daily local
news. But is it fair? Critics have debated Kim's maternal instincts, tracked her ballooning weight gain and declared her a single mom. She's been called "fat," "detached from motherhood" and many folks have even said she's faking her pregnancy. All of which to me is utterly ridiculous!
Let me clue you in on what's not in the pregnancy books:
1. Every pregnancy and every pregnant woman is different.
2. Pregnancy is not like the movies where you glow, feel fabulous and float like a goddess everyday. 3. Pregnancy can hurt and be exhausting--both physically and mentally.Yes, you will reach a point where you're "over it." 4. People can and will get on your nerves. So imagine how it feels to be photographed all the damn time. 5. While you may be lucky enough not to experience morning sickness, there are TONS of other pregnancy complications that you may experience which no one talks about (i.e preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, cervical issues, pre-term labor issues and much more)
So
let's give the girl a break. Granted, if you're a public figure you're
expected to face a higher level of scrutiny. But let's ease up and have
some compassion. After all, this is a woman carrying an innocent LIFE.
What do you think of the controversy surrounding Kim's pregnancy?
