Omg could you please do a poly!5sos where reader gets pregnant and they tell the fans and everyone’s reaction and how they act around reader. You can choose who like got reader pregnant lol
-i just want to start by saying i’m in love with this
-so you’ve been in this poly relationship for a while
-it was a huge shock when you all came out to the fandom as being in a five person poly group? like, shook. hard core
-people were skeptic at first
-you all had to deal with your fair share of disrespectful radio hosts saying shit like “okay, but how long is it going to last? i mean don’t you all get jealous?” or “how exactly does that work? you know, in the bedroom.”
-but those questions died down after a while because the boys made it clear that they were not about to take that shit
-anyways, you’ve been together for a while and people are used to the idea
-all of you had just come back from their tour, it had been wild to say the least
-we’re talking all kinds of exhibitionism sex and quickies and all the good stuff
-condoms of course, because safety first kids
-and you’re all finally back in LA and you’re all cuddling and watching a show and there are kids in the show being so cute and kid like and you’re all kind of melting at how adorable the kids are
-”i want kids so badly.”
-everyone kinda looks at Ashton because everyone knows he wants a lot of kids but its not something you’ve ever talked about as a group before
-you turn off the tv and begin talking
-”i mean, if we even consider it, who would be the father?”
-”we could do surrogates for each of us.”
-”and then just have like four children all at once?”
-”wouldn’t be the worst thing.”
-you all talk for hours about it because there are so many possibilities and there are so many things to consider in a poly group that regular two people couples don’t have to worry about
-”i’m just worried that if we do this, the three who aren’t the dad will be kinda sad about it.”
-”have you guys heard about that thing where a woman gets pregnant by two different guys and then has twins but they have different fathers?”
-you all look it up and someone’s just like “apparently you can have triplets with three different fathers.”
-”can you imagine?”
-so much laughter
-”do we think we’re ready for a baby?”
-all of you deciding to sit and think on it for a week
-Michael and Ashton are the first to break and a day later are both just like, yeah, we want kids
-Luke and Cal agree too and then it’s up to you
-”if i get pregnant, what if we don’t do a dna test to see who the father is?”
-i mean, there would probably be signs and you all know that, but yeah, not doing a dna test is a thing. because that way, its all of theirs. its all of yours
-going out clubbing together and being a huge clump of hands and lips as you make it back to the house, all managing to get to the bedroom and Ash goes to get the condom box when you’re just like “no. no condoms.”
-wild, raunchy sex fam, i know it, you know it, we all know it
-and the thing about pregnancy is it doesn’t always happen the first time you try so lets say a full week of high frequency sex and they’re all so loving
-like, because you’re actually trying to create something, it’s this entirely different level of intimacy and love and commitment
-and they are so doting on you
-you look it up and find out you probably wont get an accurate pregnancy test until after the first day of your missed period
-waiting is so excruciating because you all want to know so badly
-”hey, should you have had your period by now?” Calum asks one day
-”i don’t know, let me check my calendar.” you do the math and you realize Calum is right, if your cycle happened exactly as it was supposed to, you should have had your period the day before
-you and Cal rushing to the store for a pregnancy test while you call all the guys to tell them that you’re grabbing it
-showing up home and the other three have raced there and are waiting for you and Cal
-”wait, i don’t really have to pee.”
-they all run to the kitchen and fill up glasses with water for you to drink
-sitting in the living room waiting for you to drink
-”okay… i think i could pee.” “then pee woman! pee!”
-they can’t all fit in your bathroom so they all pace outside while you pee on the stick
-you set it down in the sink facing up before it has a result and go back outside, “we should wait a few minutes then we can all go in together and see what it says.”
-so much pacing
-especially Ashton, he is freaking out
-and him freaking out is making Luke freak out, he’s standing too, shifting on his feet
-Michael’s knee is bobbing anxiously
-Cal has his head in his hands
-a timer goes off and you all stop and look at the bathroom
-”okay, we all go in and don’t look down, then look down together, agreed?”
-you all file in, it’s a bit squishy but Michael counts down from three and you all look down
-”holy fuck!”
-they all want to hug you but there’s no space so you all go into the living room to celebrate
-but they’re all so worried about your tummy
-the softest kisses
-Calum is the first to go down to his knees and kiss your tummy even though there is not even a slight bump at all
-”thats our baby in there.”
-”lets throw a fucking rager!” this is classic Ashton celebrating
-but they don’t want to tell anyone why they’re celebrating yet? they want to be the ones to break the news to the fandom and don’t want any possibility of it getting out
-so a bunch of people come and your guys are just so sweet to you
-Luke making you a non-alcoholic cocktail
-Michael freaking out when he sees you drinking what looks like an alcoholic beverage and you have to explain to him that its virgin, he even has a sip
-and thus begins the great non-alcoholic cocktail competition on who can make the best cocktail for you
-people at the party are so confused
-your guys are protective of shit now though
-going outside while Cal is smoking and Cal throws the cigarette away and is just like “baby, you can’t be near smoke right now!”
-as soon as Luke sees you yawn for the first time he’s just like “thats it! party is over!”
-between the four of them they somehow get everyone out in under ten minutes?
-Ashton carries you to upstairs bridal style and he sets you in bed but you’re like “guys i need a shower, and you’re all sweaty and-”
-before you can even finish Ashton is carrying you to the bathroom
-but they can’t all fit in the shower, Ashton gets in because he’s the one who’s carrying you around, and before anyone can stop him, Michael is getting in too
-they both wash you and Michael’s like “is that a bump already?” and you’re just like “yeah, that’s my non-alcoholic cocktail baby.”
-sleeping in a huge mass between all your boys but they all are somehow touching your belly
-you would think that they’d calm down with the whole ‘treating our woman like a fucking queen while pregnant’ but they dont
-finding time to sit down and call all their families
-its kinda confusing because they’re fam’s dont really want to ask the question on who is really the father
-their fams for the most part being super accepting
-(imma be real here, i dont know jack shit about their families yo)
-you’re able to hide the small beginning of the bump with loose shirts but it gets to the point where you can’t hide it
-plus, the boys are being super protective of you and everyone has noticed
-”are we going to be that couple group that does a whole pregnancy photoshoot?” you joke
-”why do you not want that?” Ashton asks, “because i can cancel the photo shoot if you don’t want it.”
-a week later you’re at a super hush hush photoshoot with a hella professional pregnancy photographer but even they have to take some time to work out how they’re going to include all four guys
-but they’re all hella photogenic? so it don’t matter
-it being actually super fun? and they’re all so giddy and excited
-spending an entire day choosing the perfect photo to use to announce the pregnancy
-spending two more days coming up with the perfect caption
-spending another whole day working up the courage for you to post it
-you all have the post open on your phones on insta just waiting to hit the post button
-finally Michael says “fuck it” and just hits all the post buttons
-fans flip their shit
-like it actually practically breaks the internet
-trending on twitter
-people posting reaction videos on youtube
-the instagram picture posted showing up in so many articles that are up within 24 hours about it
-so many congratulations from people on twitter
-an official 5sos post about welcoming a new member to the 5sos family
-they want to just stay with you all day and take care of you but they have to go to work things
-going to the first interview since the announcement and the interviewer is an asshole and asks “who is the father?” and Ashton straight up leaves and Cal has to follow to make sure he doesn’t punch a hole in a wall somewhere
-they make it very clear that shit like that won’t fly
-making a twitter post about how people shouldn’t be ignorant and that you all made a choice to not know the DNA and that no matter who’s the baby ‘actually’ is (whether that be Luke, Or Calum, Or Michael, or Ashton) that its all of their baby
-Cal getting worried about the pregnancy being so public
-like… celebrity babies aren’t respected by people and internet trolls will come after anyone, even children
-they all get kinda worried about it tbh
-Michael really pushes you all forward and focuses on the positives
-like baby names
-your group chat consisting of entirely baby names and polls on names and screenshots of name meanings
-Luke probably snuggles against your tummy the most
-but Cal loves the way his tattooed hands look on your growing tummy
-they definitely all go out on a group shop one day and come back with baby things
-Michael finding the cutest onesies that are gamer related, seriously, look them up, they’re so funny
-Luke trying to set up the baby crib but Ashton ends up doing most of the work while Calum hands him things
-you get food cravings like a motherfucker and one of them is always down to go to the store to grab you things
-usually its you, Cal and Duke going to a corner store at three in the morning
-and Luke is not allowed to cook for you
-i can see Ash especially trying to do stuff to make you laugh
-half the time he has a hoodie with a basketball in the tummy area and pretends to be pregnant with you
-so many bubble baths with your guys
-you are legit being treated like a Queen
-they look it up to see at what point research says maybe the baby can hear things
-and then they take turns playing their favourite songs they’ve made
-”can’t we play something not 5sos?” “and make the baby prefer some other musician? i think not Y/N!”
-Ashton tapping little beats onto your stomach
-the baby kicking for the first time while Ashton is drumming and he screams
-everyone comes running and when Luke says “what’s happening?” the baby moves again
-four pairs of hands on your tummy
-so much cooing
-realizing the baby likes certain voices and certain songs
-so if its moving around a lot and you can’t sleep you play a slow song like “ghost of you” and the baby settles down a bit, or when Michael sings for the baby
-ya’ll have no idea if the music or Michael actually helps but whatever
-this is such a soft concept
-the request was only for pregnancy not birth or toddler so here’s this, also i never really understood baby fever or anything but jesus fuck if this is what i’d get? i’d be down fam

Bachelorette Details and Q&A
Tumblr media
We are a day away from my bachelorette and I am PUMPED. I feel like it's been so far away for so long I just can't believe it's finally here. AHH! Wanted to talk about how it all came to be and help answers some questions about our trip!
^I was outfit planning last night and here's a peek at one of them!! Dress last seen here
Before we jump into the bachelorette party plans, we have to talk about what went into it. I'm not having bridesmaids at my wedding outside of my sister who will be my MOH. I'm having a small ceremony, and some of my best girl friends won't be in attendance until after the ceremony. When I started planning this trip I wanted to open it up to my closest girl friends.
I invited: my sister, my future SIL, Jen who we went to Vegas with and who is the wife of Andrew's best friend, Caitlin and Sarah (my friends who I met through blogging), Megan and Lucy (who are two of my best friends from college), and my New York girls from work Ashby, Catherine and Morgan. There are a lot, but they all mean so much to me I couldn't imagine not having them there for the fun weekend. 
When thinking of the bachelorette, I wanted it to be a trip. My thought is that if we're going to spend the money to fly and stay somewhere, why not really make it worth everyone's while? Bachelorettes can be so expensive I thought the least I could do was make it a true vacation for everyone who was able to come. 
So with that, I knew I wanted to go international. I was originally thinking the Bahamas, or really anywhere in the Caribbean since we're all  on the east coast and it would be relatively easy. Bahamas was my first idea because it was affordable, easy to get to, and familiar.
I texted my sister and Caitlin on January 9th and we started planning. Last fall, I was at lunch with Ashby, Catherine and Morgan and we talked about tentative dates. April seemed to work well for everyone and we blocked off two weekends as a general save the date. So when I texted my sister and Caitlin, I asked which dates worked best for them and we all settled on the weekend of the 13th.
From there I texted all the girls and it just so happened that all but one was able to make it, which is a total win in my book! It was sad she couldn't come because of Coachella but when nearly all the girls can go, you lock it in. Now that we had a weekend in place we started looking into locations.
With this many girls, our only real option was an Airbnb. My sister and Caitlin scoured alllllll over the Caribbean to find a place that would fit us all, that was close to other things on the island (like a beach or shops or town) and that wasn't crazy expensive.
Many stressful days later we landed on a place in the Bahamas that was in Baha Mar. My sister emailed everyone so they knew about costs and check out airfare, and we went from there. Two girls who live in smaller cities had really expensive airfare so they weren't able to go. That left us with eight total.
With two more girls not being able to come, the Airbnb got too expensive and we restarted our search. Because there were eight of us, I thought hotels would become an option again.  We could potentially do two double beds in two rooms. 
From the very beginning I told my sister I wanted a beach, an international destination, and an all-inclusive. I've always thought an all-inclusive would be the best possible option for any bachelorette party. There is NOTHING worse than going on a trip paying for x and y then getting there and spending $500 more dollars on food, decor, and other random things you weren't planning on. Also when you're going out to dinner, you're going to be splitting up the bill every night? Ugh, just a hassle (especially with so many girls) that I didn't want to deal with.
But there aren't that many all-inclusives in the Caribbean, so we opened it up to Mexico, found a great place that worked for everyone and we booked it in mid February!! The reason I'm having a party so much earlier than my wedding is that I wanted to go somewhere warm when it wasn't warm in the city. I wanted it to be a true vacation and April is always rainy and a little cold. Plus summer in the Caribbean or Mexico is TOO HOT for my liking. Between our shower, other weddings and traveling to Nantucket this summer, other times wouldn't work out. Summer is so busy!
So here we are!! I leave Thursday morning and get back Sunday. I have my outfits put together (it's been SO MUCH FUN shopping for this trip), all the gifts ready and am ready to beach! I'll obviously be sharing more next week.
OK, SO let's get into your questions from Instagram:
How much should you budget for a bachelorette party?
I looked at is as how much I would pay normally for a trip including hotel and food and went off that. I didn't really budget much!
How did you plan a weekend to fit everyone's schedule?
I say pick a weekend that works for you and your best friend/MOH and go from there. Be flexible and book/let people know dates early.
How far ahead did you pick a weekend?
Four months out.
Where are you going?
We're going to Mexico!! We found an amazing all-inclusive in Quintana Roo.
How did you chose your destination?
This was the hardest part, but we looked a flights first and saw what was the cheapest then started looking at hotels and airbnbs in the area.
Where were other places you considered going?
Bahamas, Exuma, Jamaica, Saint Lucia, Punta Cana, Cabo and where we'll be this weekend!
How many people are going on the trip?
There will be eight of us total. 
How much do you know about the trip? How much did you plan vs. your MOH?
I think I know a lot. I was a part of the hotel, location, a nighttime idea and that's about it. I'm not sure what I don't know, so I will have to answer this after the trip. I HATE being surprised and looped out (I am a control freak in that way) so we'll see lol.
What are you paying for vs. the girls?
Everyone paid for their own flights and portion of the hotel. I think we'll all split an excursion and I got them some really great gifts for the trip.
What are you packing?
There will be a top level post on this tomorrow with links and a more in-depth post next week after our trip with photos.
Whats the one thing you knew you didn't want?
Penis anything.
More classy or raunchy party?
Classy for sure. 
What gifts did you get the girls?
I got them a really good goodie bag full of stuff. It's a surprise so I'll share more after the trip!
Whats the first drink you'll order?
Either a tequila shot or a piña colada.

@emeraldboreas
Courtship’s big problem, at least how Gothardites do it, is that it inhibits truly getting to know your potential partner. My husband and I were engaged four months after meeting, but those were conversation-heavy four months. We discussed everything under the sun, in private. Lots of intimate conversations that the Duggars simply can’t have with their siblings or parents around. For example, if one of the Duggars isn’t dedicated to fundamentalism, that needs to be discussed–but they can’t.
It’s been nearly three years since we married. My husband is the same man I thought he was when we married because I got to know him beforehand. I doubt the married Duggars will be able to say the same.
That’s really the main problem - they talk about how they “get to know” the person through courtship, but people alter their behavior in groups.  The guy who laughs it off when “Josie spills milk in his lap“ in the Duggar home may well rage out when his own kid does it at home.  And with the goal of marriage ALWAYS in sight, the courtship prospect knows they have to behave as JimBob wishes for a set amount of time - and then, once marriage is done, they can revert to whoever they really are.  I mean...fuck, remember how downright normal Derick seemed at first?
Hell, it happens in secular relationships all the time - people are on their best behavior at the beginning of a relationship, and it’s easy to be that way when you still feel like the person is perfect and you’ll NEVER fight and NEVER be pissed at them they will NEVER annoy you etc.  I’m not saying it’s always going to be that way; plenty of people are completely upfront about who they are from the get-go.  I’m just saying you shouldn’t rush into marriage if your lifestyle forbids divorce for any reason in case you’ve landed one of those people.  (Let’s all pause and stare meaningfully at Josh.)  That is NOT the time to marry someone you only know from group conversations and who is never able to “let their guard down” until you’re married.  That just seems like a horrible combination. 
@whatthefundie 
I feel like they do genuinely care and love each other, but I wish courtship would allow couples to actually get to know each other properly before pushing them into marriage - there’s so many things you don’t know about someone from hanging out in group setting etc aaaaah it stresses me out
Yeah, they do seem happy together.  And hopefully they will remain so as they truly get to know one another.  But how candidly can anyone really speak with parents and chaperones eavesdropping?  I think Joy and Austin may have had more of a chance, though, since I don’t think her brothers really give a fuck about hovering over them when they talk.  Unlike Josh’s creepy “protective” bullshit, they seem to feel like Joy is capable of picking out her own husband without their input.  I could be wrong though, and we’ll see more next season.  But I feel like their “chaperoning” would have been less weird and intrusive since they’re all friends with Austin on their own terms and they don’t just know him as “Joy’s future husband.” 
@harkinianmahboi
I fucking hate Jill.  She's such a narcissist, not to mention a neglectful mother.
Despite being the least interesting person of all time, she sure finds herself fascinating.  I mean, she’s all she wants to talk about.  Preferably on social media while Izzy climbs around the house like Spiderman. 
      @redwhirlwind89
I can't decide whether or not Jill is more like her mother or father. She's as moronic and zealous as Daddy-O, but she's as stupid, neglectful, silly, infantile, and selfish as her mother. Maybe THAT'S why she's Jim Bob's favorite? Because she's the most like Michelle? Certainly brings home my belief that there's some incestuous connection between them that no one knows about.
I think she’s a mini-Michelle for sure, at least when it comes to Izzy.  I really expected her to be a great mom and all about her kid (soon to be kids).  Maybe she’s depressed, maybe having kids immediately was a mistake when she really wanted to have time to act like a kid herself.  I don’t know.  But Izzy seems to be a social media prop for her, just like Michelle’s brood was one giant prop for her TV show.  Her eyes just look so empty all the time.  Meanwhile, Jessa lights up every time she looks at the Spurginator.  (And I assume Good Hank as well; we just haven’t seen them interact yet.) 
My guess is still that Jilly Muffin is Daddy’s favorite because she ratted out the kids who were trying to get away with things (I know Michelle claims they don’t like snitches in the Duggar house and told the kids to work things out themselves, but I don’t buy that - from Michelle, sure, since she wouldn’t have wanted to be bothered, but JimBob not love a chance to preach and boss?  I don’t buy it) and always did exactly as she was told with a smile.  She cheerfully raised her siblings from the time she was six and a half.  Jill was the anti-Michelle when she lived with her parents.  (And their relationship always seemed a bit off to me.  I don’t think anything happened, but I do think that JimBob’s “be the first man/husband prototype in my daughters’ lives” MO blurs every line between emotionally healthy parent/child relationships and emotional incest.  And I think that affected his relationship with Jill a lot more than it did Jinger and Jessa.  Joy and Johannah were both treated like Jill when they were young and cute but that seemed to be fading for Joy as she and Hannie got older; we’ll never know if Johannah became less of daddy’s favorite as she got older as well.)
Jill is like Michelle in terms of how she treats her child, but overall I think Jessa got Michelle’s personality - smug, full of herself, confident, bossy, and convinced that Jesus loves her best.  The only difference, and it’s a big one, is that Jessa is a competent, mentally sound adult human.  She doesn’t need an army of people to do everything for her and she’s not completely disconnected from reality.  (Jill seems to be well on her way there, though.)
@redwhirlwind89
HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW YOUR OWN KIDS BIRTHDAYS?? EVEN IF YOU HAVE 20 OF THEM?? Lady, I know you had your IQ banged out of you by The Boob, but get the hell real. That's 20 dates out of 365 you have to remember to congratulate your children for not killing themselves taking care of you and your household. No, strike that...18, because you have 2 sets of twins! *ugh* So much anger. When you can't keep your kids' birthdays straight, you have too many damn kids.
21 technically; though Michelle doesn’t count J’Caleb - for all her bleating about life beginning at conception (she totally forgot him with her “19 kids here and one in heaven” speech); I highly doubt his “birthday” is remembered around the house (though I’m willing to bet they do something to remember Precious Jubilee Shalom - which I’m not criticizing.  What I AM criticizing is the fact that if she had been miscarried at the beginning of the pregnancy, farther back in Michelle’s babymaking career when she wasn’t the Final Fetus, with no TV cameras around, I imagine she’d be as forgotten as Caleb.  And AGAIN I do understand that a late-term miscarriage is its own thing and maybe that would affect someone more.  But for people who base their entire lives around preserving the Almighty Blastocyst, I find it disgustingly hypocritical).
That said I think/hope she was joking. 
@missposabule
Oh God poor Anna
Agreed.  This seems like a shitty thing for her to be tasked with.  I’m sure she insisted on helping, but that had to have hurt.
        @undercoverduggarblog 
i REALLY want to know all the cringy ways they phrased it
Saaaame
        @discussingtheduggarfam 
lol but honestly though, i got some of “those” date night suggestions from friends that were rather risqué. my favorite g-rated cheap date idea was try cooking a new recipe while listening to frank sinatra.
Part of my curiosity comes from the fact that, uh, I don’t know how adventurous fundie sex tends to get.  Like...what specifically were they suggesting Jinger and Jeremy try???  TBH I’d rather have the g-rated ones. 
        @tenaciouscreeper   
Yeah I honestly wish I got date night suggestions at my bridal shower. I’m sure most of mine would have been rather risqué though 😒 people got so damn raunchy and it was annoying rather than funny. Not that my husband and I haven’t had good ideas ourselves but it would’ve been nice to get ideas from others you know? Especially considering that we lived out in the middle of nowhere. (Apologies for any typos I didn’t catch. On typing this from my new phone.)
Yeah, I think it’s a nice idea, especially for people who’ve barely spent time alone together.  (And agreed that I don’t get why people are so...gross about things.  Guys, we’re adults.  I think I’ve just gotten old.) 
      @gingerbreaddoll
For people who brag about how modest they are they really are very immodest.
You speak the truth.
