'Fall' Pregnant

[flip_flop]

How does one 'fall' pregnant.

Mrs Flop has been pregnant twice, and on neither occassion can I remember her having a problem with gravity!

Surely you become pregnant, or get pregnant, but how is it possible to fall pregnant or, in the past tense, 'I fell pregnant'.

I know I'm being petty, but it annoys me.

I think the only times I hear people say "I fell pregnant" now are on Jeremy Kyle.

"Naah, coz I was seeing two blokes around the time what I fell pregnant."

[Prudie]

Fall doesn't bother me but I cringe at 'we are pregnant'.

[sunny-dave]

Naah, coz I was seeing two flying pink elephants around the time what I fell pregnant

[joggerjayne]

Ooh, hey, Ive seen those elephants, Dave.

Where DO they come from?

Or go to?

Happily, I didn't, err "fall" pregnant.

[maggiebee]

If I got pregnant I would definitely fall - flat on my back with shock!

The reason babies come from under the gooseberry bush is that gooseberry bush was Victorian slang for a woman's nether parts.
