<title>Amy Schumer's New Over-The-Top Netflix Comedy Has A Surprisingly Heartbreaking Message</title><img referrerpolicy="no-referrer" src="https://static1.srcdn.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/cast-of-kinda-pregnant.jpg"/> <p>Amy Schumer's <b>Kinda Pregnant</b> is an outrageous comedy from beginning to end, but there is a heartbreaking message hidden within. The Netflix rom-com sees Schumer's character, Lainy, swept up in a vortex of lies after she pretended to be pregnant. She had only tried on a fake baby bump to experience the feeling but got herself stuck in the lie. In classic romantic-comedy fashion, the whole thing exploded in Lainy's face, and she had to learn a much-needed lesson. It's a fresh take on a tried and true formula, but what's really impactful about <em>Kinda Pregnant</em> is the message on motherhood.</p> <p>Lainy decided to pretend to be pregnant after her pregnant bestie became friends with another pregnant colleague (whom Lainy despised). Feeling left out, Schumer's <em>Kinda Pregnant</em> character slipped on the pregnant belly, went to a prenatal yoga class, and made a pregnant friend of her own, Megan. People treated Lainy differently while pregnant, and she finally felt that she had value as a person. In the eyes of others, she was no longer a single 40-something-year-old with a ticking maternal clock. However,<b> Lainy's friendship with Megan revealed that pregnancy might not be as magical as she thought</b>.</p> <h2> Kinda Pregnant Touches On The Often-Ignored Trauma Of Pregnancy &amp; Birth </h2><h3> The Topics No One Wants To Talk About </h3> <img class="contentimg" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" src="https://static1.srcdn.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/brianne-howey-and-amy-schumer-sitting-among-pregnant-women-at-a-support-group-in-kinda-pregnant.jpg"/> <p> Lainy had come to believe motherhood was the best thing a woman could ever do. However, her time with Megan in <em>Kinda Pregnant</em> revealed that there is a lot of ugliness that comes with pregnancy and birth. Megan had nearly died when she gave birth to her son, but she hadn't been able to process the trauma because she immediately had to step into being a mother. Now, in her second pregnancy, <b>Megan complained that she couldn't speak about her fears of discomfort because it made her feel guilty for not enjoying every magical moment</b>.</p> <p>The feelings that Megan explained during her chat with Lainy are common among people who have been pregnant. However, it's rarely talked about—especially in the context of romantic comedies. <b>Lainy's belief that pregnancy and birth are just purely magical is also common</b>, and this fact can make the true experience deeply disappointing for some women. While <em>Kinda Pregnant</em>'s primary aim is to make audiences laugh, its subtle message is important. The Netflix movie uses a familiar formula to subtly remind audiences about the often-ignored truths about pregnancy and birth.</p> <h2> Lainy's Ending In Kinda Pregnant Is Secretly Perfect </h2><h3> It's Better That She Didn't Get Pregnant In The End </h3> <img class="contentimg" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" src="https://static1.srcdn.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/will-forte-in-kinda-pregnant.jpg"/> <p> While <em>Kinda Pregnant</em>'s rom-com formula is pretty standard (someone lies, the lie blows up in their face, but their new lover forgives them anyway), the movie ended somewhat expectedly, considering the basic premise. All Lainy wanted was to have a baby, and since she got her guy in the end, it seemed as if she would have also gotten her wish. Perhaps there would have been a post-credits scene featuring the text "<em>nine months later</em>" and a comical birth scene with a screaming Schumer. However, this didn't happen.</p> <p>At the end of <em>Kinda Pregnant</em>, there is no indication that Lainy's dream ever came true. While it could be assumed that she and Josh would one day get married and have a baby, the Netflix movie interrupted the formula by leaving this ambiguous. This is actually far more fitting to the story. It's entirely fair that Lainy would dream of having a baby, but <b>Kinda Pregnant revealed that she had developed this dream without fully understanding what it meant</b>. She instead realized that she needed to value herself as she was—baby or no baby.</p>
