**Welcome to /r/Pregnant.** 

**If you or someone you know may be pregnant, please click [here](http://www.reddit.com/r/pregnant/comments/1kj3rb/so_you_might_be_pregnant_read_this_first/). Pregnancy scare posts will be removed.**



**The Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.**



This space is for all pregnant people from all walks of life. Whether you're trying to conceive or currently in labor, whether you're a surrogate or a birth parent, whether you're keeping your baby or choosing abortion or are undecided, we are here to be a safe and supportive resource for you.

Please note these important subreddit rules: 

1.  **Respect pregnant people's choices without judgement.** Nobody is too young, too poor, too single, too manly, too gay, too *whatever* to be pregnant. No pregnant person needs you to tell them that they're eating wrong, drinking wrong, weighing wrong, exercising wrong, or doing wrong by their pregnancy. 

2.  **This space is pro-choice.** No links to anti-choice material or websites allowed, no anti-choice comments allowed.

3. **No body policing.** Please take your weight loss/gain comments and links elsewhere. 

4. **Bigotry will not be tolerated.** Please hit the report button if you see any racist, sexist, homophobic, ableist, transphobic, etc. comments to help mods remove them promptly. We are a [friend of the fempire](http://redd.it/r6h1s).

5. **Please do not promote or link to other pregnancy subreddits here.** Some relevant subreddits are listed below with necessary warnings, but in our experience some other subreddits have very little moderation, which means lots of bigotry and hostility towards pregnant people. This is a safe space. Links to such subreddits do not belong here. 

6. **Asking if you or someone you know could be pregnant will result in a ban.** Nobody on the internet can tell you if someone is pregnant. Take a test.

7. **Questions regarding medical issues must be submitted to the sticky post.** Starting Oct 23, 2017, all medical questions must be submitted to the stickied post. Any questions posted individually will be removed and redirected.
