Yay, today the audience is full of first-time mommas, and for the first time this year, we have first-time dads, surrogates, and adoptive parents in the audience.

There are all different kinds of families.

This is one of my favorite shows, so I'm really bummed, because I love having all the pregnant women in here, and seeing you dancing when you're pregnant.

And it's exciting because the baby might fall out.

But I'm glad you're here virtually, and, uh, it's good that you're home because you know where your bathroom is.

While some people were baking a banana bread, you were putting a bun in the oven.

I-I guess the pandemic wasn't stressful enough for you, you decided to add another human into the mix.

I hope you like them because they're going to be living with you for a long, long time.

Hopefully someone is at the other end massaging your feet, because the only thing that gets bigger than your boobs during pregnancy are your ankles, so I hear.

I am not going to tell you that having a newborn is, uh, hard, even though I've heard it's hard.

I won't mention it because it's too late, you know, there's no going back now.

So me telling you how hard it is it's not going to help you right now, so I'm not going to say anything about how hard it is to have a newborn.

A lot of you been working, uh, from home, and no one has seen you for a year and a half, and now you're going to show up with a baby.

It's like, um,  like in the old days when they would send pregnant ladies away to have their babies in a convent, but your version is a lot better.

Unless you want to have a baby in a convent, I'm not judging - It's your...

I've never been pregnant, so I've always been able to see my toes.

But, I have a mother, and I know mothers, so I get the gist.

You're bringing new life unto this planet, and it'll be like a love that you've never ever known in your life, even though it's going to be hard, hard, so hard.
