Taking a pregnancy test isn’t glamorous. There’s the peeing part, of course, then the waiting, then the rush of emotions that comes when the pink or blue line—or plus or minus sign or whatever—pops into view. One would think women would want this to remain a private moment, like most things that take place in the bathroom should be. But that is just not the case. Many women are recording themselves taking pregnancy tests and posting the vids on YouTube. Even stranger—thousands of people are watching said videos. Slate.com has dubbed this phenomenon WombTube.

When Sally was seven weeks pregnant, her doctor said he was 99% sure she’d had a miscarriage. But she didn’t want to believe him. So in the restroom of a restaurant in San Francisco, she peed on a stick (or seven) and against all her expectations, got two blue lines.

She leads a lonely life, but Britney Spears is still the Ace of Base. A new track just popped up on Youtube.com that has the baby pop-er sampling the classic nineties hit “All That She Wants.” The chorus lyrics (“All that she wants is another baby, she’s gone tomorrow boy”) explain Britney’s vicious cycle, but the truth finally sounds good! The remix is hot, way hotter than her questionable pap/skeezy boyfriend Adnan. In his Entertainment Tonight interview, the man with facial hair like a porn stars vajajay (hello, bacon strip!) discussed shopping for pregnancy tests with Brit earlier this month saying he thought she wanted to carry his child. Poor baby! Vh1’s Save the Music charity should buy Spears a box of condoms. [You Tube] Keep reading »
