💨 Abstract
The author recounts her difficult pregnancy journey, marked by health complications and insensitive comments from colleagues. Despite her struggles, she was excited about her pregnancy, having faced fertility issues. A colleague's insensitive remark about wishing she had "kept her legs shut" deeply hurt her. The author's pregnancy was high-risk due to hypothyroidism, diabetes, and other complications. She faced insensitive questions and assumptions about her pregnancy being accidental.
