Mum Illustrates The Plights Of Pregnant Women With These Humorous Cartoons

Unwanted hair, unusual cravings, bathroom rush, and invasion are some of the challenges pregnant women are faced with.

In an email to the Huffington post, cartoonist and mum of two, Line Severinsen started creating cartoons to help mum like her “understand that they weren’t alone and that it is OK to feel and act less than perfect sometimes.”

The artist, who lives in Bergen, Norway, manages to perfectly capture the array of challenges with wit and humor.

 

‘Things no one tells you before you get pregnant’
That wonderful hormone which may give you thicker hair on your head is also causing it to sprout up in other, more unwelcome places.

‘It’s not easy to see below the belly’
At the best of times grooming is a pain, so we salute any heavily pregnant woman who keeps it up.

‘Don’t touch my belly!’
It’s an invasion of privacy many pregnant women have had to endure.

‘Nine months plus nursing without alcohol’
Special occasions like birthdays and New Year’s Eve are a sober affair

‘Third trimester work-out’

In those final weeks of your pregnancy, the need to urinate comes back with a vengeance as your uterus expands, meaning when you have to go, you have to go NOW.
