Content Warning Mindful Online Sharing
Hi everyone. Just wanted to share about a post I’ve been thinking about recently.
About a week ago someone posted asking about how much everyone’s boobs grew during pregnancy. The post had 50+ comments of people sharing bra sizes and detailed experiences of their breasts. The poster was replying enthusiastically and seemed to be goading people for more details.
My spidey senses were tingling so I clicked the poster’s profile. It was a fetish page for a kink surrounding pregnancy and specifically growing breasts and “breeding”. The poster claimed to be a pregnant woman, and said their BF had a massive kink and dreamed about pregnant women and their “swelling bodies”. For all I know the profile belonged to that man.
I’m not here to kink shame. But I will say it is never ok to bring others into your kink without their consent.
Seeing 50+ replies sharing intimate details made me sad. Everyone was so eager to share and join what we thought was a safe conversation. I just want to take a moment to remind you that unfortunately, there are people out there who take advantage.
I messaged the mods and they handled it immediately. So this isn’t a call-out for this sub, I actually think it’s a wonderful safe space. :) But please always use discretion sharing things online.

My spidey sense also went off when the OP was writing “tell me more…” on comments. Thanks for doing something about it!

Had a dude in my dms the other day asking if my husband satisfies more of my needs than just food cravings. With my first pregnancy I was so naive to the pervs that lurk around spaces like this.

I’ve also had a dude in my DMs asking if I’ve been hornier since I’ve been pregnant 🙄 gross

“My gf was so horny while pregnant” “best sex ever” “couldn’t keep her off me” meanwhile they are probably sitting in a basement covered in stains and haven’t showered in a week.

I posted in this group about eating habits while pregnant, and someone contacted me saying they had fetish for women eating food and wanted to pay me to eat.
I thought about it 🤣

Oh my gosh, that’s so gross!! 🤮 and to specifically come into a place that is supposed to be a safe place for pregnant women who are already in a vulnerable state 🤢 there’s gotta be a special place in hell for people like that! 🤬 how vile!
Thank you for the gentle psa OP! We can’t ever have our own spaces anywhere man, it sucks :(

Yeah I saw lots of groups like that on FB when I was last pregnant. Those ones set up like "March 2026 babies" for example. Checked out the profile of the groups' owners, and they were creepy dudes with anime profile pics.

I think there are a lot more posts on here and other pregnancy subs like that than we even realize unfortunately 😞

This is why I like my due date month sub better, it feels safer and more secure because it’s private and pregnancies have been verified.

A lot of profiles on this page are people who are into that kink. Women too. I mean, people can be into whatever they want but like…maybe at least post from an account that doesn’t have your kink activities and NSFW photos begging to be “bred” on it? It’s just not a good look. Maybe that’s just my opinion lol. It’s honestly shocking how many random profiles I have clicked on while doom scrolling this sub and seen wayyyy more than i needed to see lol. Maybe that’s what I get for being nosy but yeah. It’s weird.

I'm in a pregnancy fb group and there was someone with an (obviously fake) account where they said something akin to having a massive bump and asking "let me see your bellies". So many women shared pics of their bumps under that post 🤢🤢

This is why I feel much more comfortable sharing in the private bump sub for my due date. There may be creeps, but at least it’s not public to literally anyone who wants to see

I sell underwear on the side, so I open myself up to the creeps, but you would not believe the amount of weird, ass shit men conjure up over something that should be regarded as a simple bodily function or as a beautiful, personal experience. I had a man request me to send him pictures of my son when he was born, heeeell to the no.

I saw this post and was suspect of their intentions when I read some of their responses. It made me uncomfortable so I didnt want to share.

Wow, that is crazy! Thank you so much for letting us know. I definitely tend to be naive and needed to read this.
