A couple of days ago I had a bit of a dilemma. I didn’t want to say anything to Mommy so I waited until she left the room and I walked up to Daddy who was busy watching hockey. “Daddy, is Mommy getting bigger?” I asked. “Yes, she is” Daddy replied matter of factly as he then turned his attention back to the game. After a couple of minutes of silence I asked Daddy “why?” to which he replied “Mommy is eating more….oh, and she is pregnant”.
Pregnant huh. I didn’t know what that meant so I went to my playroom and tried to learn about pregnancy on television. My usual standby, CNBC, wasn’t terribly helpful so I started changing the channel to find the channel that would teach me about pregnancy. Of the channels I turned to: ESPN, Disney, USA, NBC, LOGO, and A&E, not a single one talked about pregnancy. As it turns out, we don’t get the channels that teach one about pregnancy.
During the intermission to the game Daddy picked me up and sat me on his lap and Mommy came and sat next to him. They explained that when two people love and care for each other very much or when two people who don’t care about each other at all have too many drinks on a Saturday night, sometimes they give each other a special hug and pregnancy occurs. Mommy and Daddy assured me that they love each other very much and they both told me that all of this means that I am going to be a big sister.
While I am very excited that I am going to be a big sister, I am still not sure if I understood their explanation. I wonder if they had sex?
