A father-to-be in Susanville, California, wonders about how many different ways there are to say a woman is pregnant. He likes the term great with child, but isn’t crazy about knocked up. Fortunately, there are more than 120 terms, including: swallowed a pumpkin seed, swallowed a watermelon seed, lumpy, clucky, awkward, eating for two, to be in a delicate condition, in the familiar way, double-ribbed, preggers, poisoned, with a kid in the basket, having joined the pudding club, full in the belly, belly up, apron up, and more. This is part of a complete episode.
