I think anyone who has ever given birth would agree that the end of the third trimester is brutal, but that agony isn't solely reserved for humans. Oh no, my friends. It turns out being hugely pregnant is a massive pain in the buns for anyone who doesn't lay eggs. Except maybe marsupials, smug little punks, bucking tradition and popping out parbaked mini-mes who finish cooking in a pouch with a much larger opening.
But, biology refresher aside, even the most stoic of animals let their feelings be known when it comes to just how miserable the end of pregnancy can be.
Here are 15 pregnant animals who are large, in charge, and completely over being pregnant.
1.
The giant potbelly and wispy mustache almost distract from the dangly third nipple. Almost.
2.
She's one baby kick to the ribs away from rolling right into greener pastures.
3.
What's that familiar look on her face? Ah, yes. Defeat. Utter defeat.
4.
Cantaloupe? Hot air balloon? Real life Squishmallow? All we know is without a ride on her human carriage, whatever this is isn't getting around on those itty bitty legs.
5.
How she got here is second in importance only to knowing who's going to fill this bin back up with food ASAP.
6.
Her face doesn't give away the fact that she's basically a sparsely haired coconut with legs from the ribs down.
7.
Some carry high, some carry low. Some carry sideways and oh god I can't look at this anymore because it's so painful.
8.
The face you make when every animal on the savanna asks if you're sure you aren't having twins...
9.
When you are too pregnant to move but happy that you aren’t vomiting anymore.
10.
Feelin' cute. Might rocket a baby out into your yard later... or now...idk.
11.
"Mike, you look great! You've got to tell us how you got your pouch back to your pre-pregnancy size so quickly!"
12.
"I was told there would be glowing."
13.
Do it. Touch my belly again. See what happens. I dare you.
14.
At least I’m buoyant
15.
The ever-popular perched on a cliff, dangling over a log, face down position to avoid people saying, “Better sleep now before the baby comes.”
Which one of these delightfully round (and probably miserable) creatures do you identify with most?
