on one hand yes a fetus requires nutrients from the parent’s body but on the other hand. sometimes people calling it a parasite feels a little strange
#idk maybe it’s because i was raised by a midwife#abortions are an incredibly important part of healthcare but also if someone decides to keep their baby and you’re only thinking about it#as some sort of parasite instead of something the parent is choosing to do and excited about it seems very dehumanising#it just seems weird and off to me#plus i hope no one in healthcare has that view but if they did i would think it could potentially also affect the parent’s care#because yes carrying a child will absolutely strain the body more than it might be otherwise but if it’s something the parent wants to do#then calling it a parasite or something. idk ive just been thinking about this#because viewing a fetus or embryo as some sort of 100% viable life form from the moment of conception is completely wrong. but also if#someone wants their child and is excited about it don’t be weird?#OH it’s because it feels the same as those people who are like ‘i hate All Kids i love when kids cry i would punt a child’#that’s it. yep. that’s why it feels weird#just thinkin out loud here bc people can be really strange about pregnancy#pregnancy is fucking wild though i remember having a conversation with my mum where she was like ‘yeah it can make a vagina change colours’#like what the fuck is that about#i know more abt pregnancy than the average person and it is weird as hell and kinda scary
