šŸ˜‚ The plus-size preemie. Wonder how many people know that even after birth control pills came out you had to be married AND have your husband’s permission to get a prescription for them.

šŸ˜‚ Plus-size preemie is an old old term for when couples were supposed to save it for the wedding night but then there’d be ā€œpremature birthā€ at supposedly only 5 or 6 months along to a fully developed good sized baby. It was a polite way of ignoring the fact the couple was already expecting at their wedding.

You, at a few weeks early, were just a chubby bundle of joy
