Raise Your Hand if You're NOT Pregnant

Is it just me or is every other celebrity out there now pregnant?

I have to admit that I keep up with celebrity gossip, and I can't help but notice that a ton of celebrities have been announcing pregnancies these past few weeks -- Natalie Portman, Kate Hudson, Devon Aoki, Jewel.

This plus the fact that I have two friends who are now on pregnancy #2.

I seriously feel like I'm the last non-pregnant person on this earth.
