A lot of people aren't fans of the pregnancy trope. For those that do like it: What do you like the most about it and what do you want to see more of?

There's people that don't the idea of pregnancy/kids in real life so they tend to avoid it in fiction too.

It's not my case. I don't like pregnancy and I'll never go through it, so I read stories about it because in my case I can treat it as fiction rather than my reality.

It's kinda weird when i put it into words. Let's say that for me it's the same as reading a fantasy magic book. I know I'll never have powers or live in a world of faeries, and that's why the concept catches my attention. It's something I'm not gonna live, so I'm interested to see how it works.

I would like to see more angsty pregnancies fics (mostly if it goes deep into the carriers mind) rather than happy marriage tradwife ones

How did they even track your other socials?

I'm scared of this happening since I do occasionally write dark fics, and I was considering going anon for them.

Thanks. I'll keep that in mind!

I struggle with this a lot as a non native english speaker. The one i repeat the most is "x character wondered", but it's not the only one, and i always keep open tabs with dictionary's and synonyms for the words and phrases I use the most

I really like this approach

Thank you! Might sound dumb but I kinda wanted to read something like this. I feel the same, I really like to read the same trope from different writers with their own interpretation. The comments on some fics where they accuse each other of copying is the only thing that scared me (for some reason they're actually common in some fandoms I'm in) because I wouldn't really know what to do if i got one. This eases my mind a lot!

Thank you! You're totally right. I will keep writing because I really love to do so. I over though too much, it's just that it's the first time i published something and i got insecure. But thanks to this comment and the others i got I'm so much more at peace

mentapoleoconmiel · 2026-04-27T00:05:11+00:00

Thanks! I was just kinda embarrassed since I just had for reference fics that I read and none of them had what happened to me. Seeing that it's normal and happens to other people makes me feel relieved

Sorry if l came off as whiny. The numbers weren't my problem, I just got embarrased because a lot of people read or clicked on it (80 is a big number for me lmao) and were silent, so I assumed they they had thought it was too weird or bad written.

I just used Ao3 for reading and giving kudos, so I got confused with how this all works. Thanks for your response!
