Apparently, the fact that I wasn’t drinking on any given evening was so out of character that they knew I was pregnant before I could even utter the words “lubricated vaginal ultrasound wand”.

There are a number of moos who have kids to force themselves to grow up and be responsible.

Perhaps. But in my life experience, there are quite a few who do not. They are dropping the kids off at school, and hitting the wine bottle when they arrive home. Or they are getting bombed at weddings, holidays, and summer block parties, under the justification that "everyone" is drinking heavily. "Everyone" meaning them and a few other winos.

Some even go a step further, ditching alcohol for prescription meds.

And I've seen it too. My boss has two small children and her behavior at the employee holiday party was one part extrovert and five parts "first night out without the children since the first pregnancy."

Oh, whatever. They all say that. Then when reality hits and Moo realizes that life with kids is not the fairytale she thought it would be, she'll go right back to the booze, and if that's not enough she'll pop prescription pills like candy. And she'll end up taking all her shit out on the kid, because Junior had to be a human being with needs instead of this angel that was supposed to rescue her from her so-called "party girl" ways.
