From Goodnight Moon to The Giving Tree, we parents are very accomplished at reading stories. Yet how often do we get to tell our own? Now that the main event has arrived, it seems that people no longer want hear about the wacky ultrasound technologist and his hairy knuckles, and eyes glaze over at the recounting of the dream in which my baby is born an owl flapping around Central Park’s Bethesda Fountain. Rightly so, folks would rather ooooo and coo at the baby.
But not so with our friends at SMITH magazine and the delicious pickle maker Ricks Picks, who have an enduring appreciation of all things bump. And now, they invite you to enter their pregnancy story contest when you share your tale of this momentous time in your life in 100 words or less. Whether your pregnancy experience is amazing, unusual, or simply memorable, it’s guaranteed an audience who wants to hear your story, and earns you a shot at winning one of several excellent and cravings-worthy prizes.
Read some of the entries, visit the gallery of Beautiful Pregnant Women, and enter to share your own story.
