Guest lydiahardwood Report post Posted November 8, 2021 This month's interview is with Lena in Montreal. She is a petite and pregnant content creator and this interview gives an insight into her experience working as a pregnant woman. Let us know what you think in the comments. ❤️ Hey Lena! So happy to get the chance to hear more about you. So, tell us a little bit about yourself. A: Hi Lydia! I’m a model, amateur baker and a sex worker, I started sex work back in 2015 I believe. Thanks! So you’ve been doing this for a while but right now you’re in quite a unique situation, right? A: Yes, I’ve posted my first video on an adult website in 2015. I’ve been working on and off as I have other projects going on. This year was a lot different because of my pregnancy. When you found out you were pregnant, what did you think about work? Did you contemplate taking a hiatus or were you happy to work throughout? A: At first I thought I would take a break or just retire. But after looking up online and seeing there was a genuine interest, I’ve decided to stay. Were you nervous to announce you were working throughout? If so, what made you feel that way? A: Yes, I was. I still get nervous everytime I post a photo on my public page which is why I’ve restrained the comments. People tend to be very mean when they’re behind a screen. Have you faced any judgement or stigma around it? A: Only two people found a way to leave rather disgusting comments. I think restraining the comments was a great idea and I cannot recommend this enough. What reasons do you think people have for feeling uncomfortable around pregnancy kinks? A: Some people mentioned consent, like your unborn child cannot consent to it. I would love for people to realize that it is about the pregnant person’s body and not what or who is inside. People look at my videos because they like how the pregnant body looks like. Pregnancy and birth is such an incredible, spiritual thing. Do you think that is a big reason behind pregnancy kinks? A: Not necessarily, I’ve had the chance to ask many people with different backgrounds, ages etc. They all seemed to say that they liked seeing body transformations and also hormonal changes. I’ve connected with people on a more personal level and they have mentioned being happy to go through this with me as they haven’t had the chance to be close to a pregnant woman before. Sex and psychology showed in a recent survey that 41% of men have fantasised about sex with a pregnant person. Are you surprised by this stat or not really? A: Yes! Very surprised, I even found out that some of my friends were into that. “Pregnant” is also Pornhub’s 107th most searched for term, up there with “redhead”! Have you found yourself more busy with bookings since you’ve been pregnant? A: I don’t meet people in person but I’ve received quite a lot of requests for that and also lactation. Are there any boundaries you have when it comes to your pregnancy and working? A: I am a very private person. I haven’t shared a lot of details besides the fact that I am pregnant. Being a sex worker is my choice, my unborn child hasn’t consented to anything so I try to keep their details as private as possible. I haven’t revealed the gender, the due date and I’m not planning on posting any photo of them on my pages. Do you think you will offer other services such as selling breast milk/pads? A: I post a lot of baking content on my public page and I have received requests from people asking me to drop cow milk and use my own. A few people have asked to buy milk as well. I don’t know exactly how I would do that, but that’s seem fun. Do you feel sexy when you’re pregnant? Has working throughout it helped with your body confidence? A: I have my days, I’ve always been very skinny. I was 96 lbs for many years before getting pregnant so this sudden weight gain was very difficult for me. Before I knew people were into pregnant women, I felt really unattractive. Have you got any advice to Providers who are pregnant and want to announce it, but are scared to because of stigma? A: If you have a fan page, try starting there. See how they react to it. If you are meeting people in person, tell your favourite clients first. People that already know you will usually react more positively. Thanks so much for your time and I hope the rest of your pregnancy and the birth goes well. So excited for you! Anything else you’d like to add? A: Thank you! I am glad to speak out about this, I’ve received a lot of messages from pregnant sex workers that are still too afraid to announce it. I wish it wasn’t as taboo as it is right now. Hopefully this interview will help a little. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neil young 79 Report post Posted November 11, 2021 Pregnant women are beautiful, no doubt many men have desires to be with an expectant mother. It is disconcerting the number of things that could go wrong if one were to provide services during pregnancy though. Be careful! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
