‘My husband gets me pregnant every year so I don’t have to deal with a period’

“My pregnancies are absolutely miserable, but somehow I’d still rather be pregnant than have a period,” Chantel says in the video.

That time of the month is a chore for most women. 

The pain, the mood swings and everything that comes with a period can be enough to make you wish you never dealt with it again. 

Canadian influencer, Chantal, has devised a plan to stop dealing with the monthly monster

Mum-of-three gets pregnant “every year” to reduce her period

The Canadian influencer uploaded a clip to her TikTok followers. 

Heavily pregnant, she nestled her belly while her husband, Aaron, held their two kids in his arms. 

“When he gets you pregnant every year so you don’t have to deal with a period,” she captioned the clip. 

In the six-second clip, Chantel lipsyncs to a portion of “Thank you to my man”, a viral TikTok sound.

“My pregnancies are absolutely miserable, but somehow I’d still rather be pregnant [than have] a period,” she wrote in the comments. 

And it looks like she isn’t slowing down with her planned pregnancies, either. She later specified she would like “10 or eight” kids. 

The family has amassed over 660,000 followers on the social media app, documenting life raising two boys and another on the way.

Chantal and Aaron, clearly lovers of a joke or two, frequently share humorous videos of their life as a growing family. 

Aaron recently began “spying” on Chantel while she was experiencing pregnancy cravings, and the family famously (perhaps infamously?)  named their daughter “Pickle.”

“This is my idea of hell”

The video has garnered thousands of comments and 4.5 million views, with the majority of watchers in on the joke. 

“A win is a win,” someone laughed. “Life hack,” another added. 

“Girl same, I had three in three years,” a mum chimed in. “Same - took a break in 2022 though,” another laughed. “On my third precious baby now.” 

Some suggested that Chantel sticks to birth control to reduce her menstrual cycle. “I had a hysterectomy, no period - period,” read a comment. “I just got an IUD, got rid of my period for two years,” another added. 

Some said being pregnant every year sounded “like a dream.” 

“Supermum!” wrote a fan. 

But others weren’t as convinced. “My idea of hell,” a woman laughed. “Happy for you though!”

“I would way rather deal with a five-day period than nine months of pregnancy,” another argued. “Pregnancy is hard as hell.”
