62 Pregnancy Quotes That Will Make you Feel Seen
If you’re expecting, there’s a good chance you’ve spent many a middle-of-the-night wide awake, unborn tap-dancing on your insides, desperately seeking solace from an unknown online sisterhood sharing pregnancy quotes and memes on socials.
Whilst pregnancy quotes don’t quite have the substance of an actual chat with a mate that’s been through pregnancy and got the spit-up stained t-shirt, they can, we’d argue, provide a source of comfort and light relief when pregnancy feels nerve-wracking, uncomfortable, exciting, overwhelming, lonely – and everything in-between.
There’s a pregnancy quote or meme for pretty much every emotion and experience that comes as part and parcel of baby-growing, so we scoured the web for the most reassuring, relatable, and witty one-liners for you to have on-hand whenever you need.
Some are cute, some straight-talking, and some funny, though we kept the cheese to a strict minimum. Keep scrolling for 62 pregnancy quotes that won’t make your insides recoil with cringe (no Live, Laugh, Loves here).
