How did we ever make design, food, and photography decisions without Pinterest? Why, back in my day all we had was a slightly terrifying lady named Martha Stewart, and in order to get her advice, we had to buy her magazines or watch her on TV. Uphill, both ways, in the snow!
Now, of course, Pinterest is there to fill the creative vacuum in our lives. We all know Pinterest is the go-to place for party ideas and recipes, but did you also know that it contains a rich treasure trove of maternity-themed photo and craft ideas—and some of them are downright deranged?
Here are 10 awesomely over-the-top pregnancy ideas to copy (or ... not) from Pinterest:

What ... what am I even looking at, here? FAKE TRANSPARENT BELLY OMG.

Okay, I admit this one's sort of cute, but I'm going to have to deduct points for Ubiquitous Heart Hands. Stop with the Heart Hands, Pinterest!

Aww, what a lovely way to capture this precious stage in their lives.

Wait, your baby is the size of a banana or you're craving a banana? Do keep us posted every single week, though.

If you didn't serve ultrasound cookies at your baby shower, you should probably just give up now.

Whether or not this is real or Photoshopped, every pregnant woman knows exactly what it feels like to have a body part threatening to burst forth, Alien-style: IT'S CREEPY. I don't look at this and think, awwwww, I think, OWWWW.

Oh my god. OH MY GOD. No words.

Say, a gender reveal cake that involves slicing into a baby's body. Adorable.

Hey everyone, we're pregnant! Also here is something I peed on.

I really like the cookies lol,how clever.
I think the "fruit" size concept is a fun way to track the growth from week to week using a visual that people are familar with.
Too funny! Oh, and thanks for actually letting me see the pictures by NOT doing a slide show. Keep it up, Linda! And can you spread the word to your fellow bloggers that we really hate the slide shows? Thanks!
Omg! The baby cakes! Ive never understood why people want to make cakes in the shape of people....its like YUM CANNIBALISM! lol..... The beer pic is hilarious though :-p
Pregnancy portraits can be tasteful and beautiful. Posing in your bra and pantys for a pregnancy portrait just looks trashy. I won't even get started on posing with alcohol...
To the charcole drawing on her belly couple: Yes woman are forgiven any and all flaws when pregnant, this does not extend to husbands -tone up or shirt up!
Yes, thank you for omitting the now ever-popular slideshows on this blog. I hate them.
