Wouldn’t mind seeing this girl turn into a repeat customer, maybe upgrade to a Family Feast or two with a marionberry milkshake.

The McPreggo Menu (6/28/23 update)

While I by no means came up with the McPreggo concept, I am a very big fan of it, so I wrote up a hypothetical menu for funsies! This menu got a surprising amount of attention and I received a bunch of suggestions for future items. So here, I’ve implemented them and given the menu a nice content update! I tried to fit as many ideas as I could, but if I missed yours, send another anon and I’ll work it in next time! Full menu under the cut!

Every item can be ordered individually or in a combo! Combos come with your choice of a side, and a drink! Different sides have different effects, try them all! 

#1 The McPreggo Burger

The original filler-upper! Carry a singleton in minutes with this mouth watering single quarter pound patty cheeseburger, with tomatoes, lettuce, diced onion, pickles, and your choice of sauces!

#2 The Twinner

Twice as filling, twice as heavy, go full term with twins with TWO quarter pound patties, with cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, diced onion, pickles, and your choice of sauces!

#3 The Triple Stack

Sensing a pattern? Go big with triplets, with three whole quarter pound patties (That’s 12 oz of meat!) with cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, diced onion, pickles, and your choice of sauces! (Warning, Doctor’s note required for purchase)

#4 The Breaded Babymaker

A mouth watering crispy chicken sandwich topped with lettuce and mayo, on a sesame seed bun! 50/50 odds for a singleton or twins!

#5 The Labor-Inducer

Well… not QUITE real labor, but this breaded chicken sandwich packs a spicy kick with pepper sauce, knocks you up with one, and causes regular braxton-hicks for the duration of the food-induced pregnancy! Those those who enjoy a more intense experience!

#6 The Twinner Chicken Dinner

Three breaded and fried chicken strips, worth a trimester each! Each strip takes you up one trimester with twins, with each basket linked to a set of twins, so no fear going overdue by eating more than one serving! 

#7 The Fish Filet Sandwich

A tasty fish filet with light breading, with cheese and tartar sauce! Induces a singleton pregnancy with safe-but-noticeable polyhydramnios, giving extra amniotic fluid!

#8 The Quad Pod

A meal for the truly brave, comes with a double cheeseburger (The Twinner) and three chicken strips (The Twinner Chicken Dinner) to land you full of quadruplets at 40 weeks if fully consumed! (Warning, Doctor’s note required for purchase)

#9 The Family Feast Not a feast for a family, but a feast to help you MAKE one! A Triple Stack, A Breaded Babywaker, and a Twinner Chicken Dinner, to land you full of 6-7 babies, all at full term! Not for the feint of heart! (Warning, Doctor’s note and signed waiver required for purchase)

Breakfast (ALL DAY!)

Hash Brown

Crispy outside, soft potato-y inside. Warm morning goodness! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will make a belly drop as if full term and close to birth! 

Ready-To-Pop Tarts

Our most versatile product, each Ready-To-Pop Tart is named after the quantum baby it induces, and results in a 1-to-1 pregnancy experience as if you were carrying that baby at full term! Each name has its effects listed on the box, such as extra size, carrying low, specific cravings, and so on! Mix and match to carry multiples and craft your perfect pregnancy! Or, try a mystery unlabelled one and see who YOU get pregnant with!

Sausage Egg Muffin

A toasted english muffin housing a breakfast sausage patty, and a folded scrambled egg! A morning classic! If eaten before other McPreggo products, will delay the onset of those products by 1 hour per breakfast sandwich. Additional sandwiches will increase the duration of the delay. Delay timer begins after full consumption of the breakfast sandwich.

Bacon Egg Griddle

Crispy strips of bacon, folded scrambled egg, between two delicious maple flavored griddles! If eaten before other McPreggo products, will cause effects of those products to onset over time instead of instantly. Each sandwich consumed causes effects to onset over the course of 30 minutes, with additional griddles slowing the onset further. Cannot slow an onset to be longer than the base pregnancy duration.

The Baby Burrito

A breakfast burrito for those who are early-risers, this morning meal has scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, melted cheese, and tater tots, wrapped in a warm flour tortilla. Gives you a singleton at 20 weeks along!

SPECIAL LIMITED TIME ITEMS

These items are only available for small windows of time, and don't interact with our other products due to their unique nature. They’re a big commitment, but provide a very genuine experience. For customers looking for something that takes more dedication than a standard combo meal.

The McCrib

A special BBQ rib sandwich, only available during the first month of even numbered years. Slow cooked rib meat slathered in BBQ sauce, the McCrib answers the question of “what if humans could properly fully develop in the womb, rather than being born at just 9 months?”. Comparative to most other species, humans give birth very prematurely so that the baby can be safely delivered. McPreggo quantum babies aren’t ever birthed, allowing us to see what life would be like otherwise. Upon consuming a full McCrib, the customer starts on a 21 month pregnancy, spanning 7 trimesters, and allowing the quantum baby to grow to the size and weight of a one year old, with all the challenges and experiences that come with that. A slow burn experience, this pregnancy will include increased weight, size, and strength of the baby inside, finally reaching its apex after almost 2 years of uninterrupted pregnancy. It should be noted that McCrib pregnancies do not stack with each other, so only a singleton may be carried for 21 months. However, other McPreggo products will still function independently, meaning that additional temporary babies may be added, though baby altering effects from items such as the chicken nuggets, will have no effect on the McCrib baby.

The Beastly Burger

An extra large McPreggo burger stacked high with toppings, slathered in a unique “Monster Sauce”, and only sold annually during october. Initiates a 9 month long “anomalous pregnancy”, where the eater becomes pregnant with a mysterious, monstrous entity! Featuring many mouths, eyes, tentacles, and other fun additions that can be felt on the inner walls of the womb! Squirmy and active, it’ll make for a highly engaging and invigorating pregnancy! Will not interact with other McPreggo products, though they can be enjoyed in tandem. (Warning: unusual belly blemishes and strange cravings may occur)

Sides

Fries

Crispy, salty yukon gold fries! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will make a belly lower and longer, resulting in a torpedo belly! Watch where you point that thing!

Grape

The classic artificial cough syrup variety you grew up with, now with a twist!  If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will increase blood flow to belly skin, giving it extra visible “blush”. Increases belly blush by 25% per shot.

Orange

Unique and refreshing, goes with most other tropical fruits!  If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will cause the belly to glow with a safe, heatless light from within!

Dips, Dressings, and Sauces!

Caesar Salad Dressing

A mix of dijon mustard, lemon juice, and worcestershire sauce perfect for anyone craving a classic caesar salad! If drizzled over a McPreggo side salad and eaten, will increase nesting drive by 40% for the duration of the McPreggo pregnancy. The energy given by the salad will be put toward this nesting instinct.

Tangy Vinaigrette

An old favorite with a bite, this vinaigrette goes great on our side salad! If drizzled over a McPreggo side salad and eaten, will increase joint flexibility and ease of movement by a noticeable amount. Make your maternity yoga class a breeze with our lovely dressing!

Thousand Island Dressing

An american classic, thousand island is a great topper to our side salad. If drizzled over a McPreggo side salad and eaten, will increase sense of smell and taste substantially, making your craving foods taste even better!

Classic thick, creamy ranch, good for nuggets and salads alike! When combined with any McPreggo food, will increase the visibility of veins on the belly by 60%!

Marinara Sauce

Take the routine out of your usual McPreggo order with out tomato-y marinara sauce! When eaten with our mozzarella sticks, will increase the duration of the pregnancy by a random amount, varying from 10-40%! 

BBQ sauce

Tangy and a little sweet, our BBQ sauce can’t be beat! If pregnant with a McPreggo product and fully aware of this sauce’s effects before eating, will induce a slightly hazy, forgetful “pregnancy brain” sensation for the duration of the food pregnancy! 

Fry sauce

A thick fry sauce for an even thicker patron! Enjoy this northwestern classic and round out a little! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will cause thighs and buttocks to grow visibly thicker, with increasing effects the more is eaten.

Ketchup

We don’t need to pitch ketchup to you. It’s ketchup. You know you like it. If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will shift the distribution of babies within the womb to make it visibly lopsided. Will never push babies into an unsafe or painful position for either party.

Desserts

Chocolate Chip Cookie

A classic treat with a cute twist! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will cycle through belly button types, with each cookie going to the next one in the cycle. Starts with an innie, then pops into an outie, then flattens out as though your navel was too stretched to even pop! If stretched, the next cookie reverts you back to an innie!

Ice Cream Sundae

Comes in hot fudge or carmel! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will lower the visibility of blemishes like stretchmarks or visible veins, resulting in a smoother, softer skinned tummy!

Ice Cream Sandwich

A classic straight from the ice cream truck! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will relieve back pain and contractions brought on by late-stage food-based pregnancy!

McBlendie

Cool, creamy soft serve blended with your choice of twix or reeses peanut butter cups! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will reset all other side and desert item effects. Will not hasten a McPreggo food pregnancy!

Milkshakes!

Cookies and Crème

A thick and creamy milkshake that’s loaded with blended chocolate cookie bits! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will increase milk production and potentially even breast size! (Small: +100% milk production, Medium: +175% milk production, Large: +250% milk production. Percentages are approximate, breast size increase will vary)

Apple Pie Delight

A whole slice of apple pie dumped right into our vanilla milkshake mix and blended until thick! It still counts as A La Mode, right? If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will increase sex drive in those who drink it and are fully aware of its effects before consuming. (Small: +75% libido, Medium: +125% libido, Large: +175% libido. Percentages are approximate and based on starting sex drive. Does not function without awareness)

Maternal Marionberry

Oregon marionberries, in a milkshake, served so thick you probably need a spoon. Need we say more? If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will widen and soften hips, and give you that pregnancy glow! (Small: +5% hip width, Medium: +7.5% hip width, Large: +10% hip width. Percentages are approximate)

How about a #7 The Twinner Chicken Dinner with some tator tots?

#7 The Twinner Chicken Dinner

Three breaded and fried chicken strips, worth a trimester each! Each strip takes you up one trimester with twins, with each basket linked to a set of twins, so no fear going overdue by eating more than one serving!

Tater Tots

Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside! If pregnant with a McPreggo product, will make a belly wider at the sides, resulting in a beach ball belly. Look pregnant from behind too! (Small: +5% belly width, Medium: +7.5% belly width, Large: +10% belly width. Roundness will vary. Percentages are approximate.)

love me a good twin belly 💕 i would eat the strips slowly so i can savor each trimester and eat a few tater tots in between. might have a small portion so i don't get too way too round and can't fit through the door out.

i will probably be visibly pregnant from all sides already with my squishiness. can't get too crazy with the extra roundess. might have to sit close to you so our bellies can be touching and rubbing your belly

[obscenely-overdue]

Do you think of doing McPreggo RP

[OOC] The problem with a mcpreggo RP, at least in this format, is that without a myriad of other belly sizes to work with, it'd be really same-y. Eventually it'd be me using the same 1-2 bellies and listing items from the menu, without much variation. There's not a good way to visually SHOW the mcpreggo effects, especially the wilder ones, cause my tummy is always covered. And while I do love mcpreggo and all the attention it's gotten, I'm also vibing doing this with a separate focus.

[wesoftupinhere]

OJ could always have more pampering... perhaps someone's taking him out to McDonald's to satisfy his pregnancy cravings?

OJ having a good ol mcpreggo

[bellyprincess]

So your McPreggo order will yield you…

6-7 babies

X2 belly drop

+10% width

336 minute duration

Extra thicc

No stretch marks

+500% milk

+175% libido

+20% hip width

+105% belly fat

And with that libido, some fun times with that might add another 2-3 in there, so I guess my question is…where do I start feeding you?

omg!!!! rn?? pls?? 🥺👉👈 i don't wanna take finals id rather be munching on that menu! I know for a fact id be absolutely huge with 6-7 babies in me, quite literally more belly than lil me at that point! 🥰💚

[bigbelsammy]

Have you seen the McPreggo menu? I think you would get a kick out of it

I haven't 😲 I'm gonna look it up now!~

[moved2violentfeedist]

New limited time meal from McDonald's, the McPreggo! One bite will put a full food baby in your belly, only making your hungrier to meet that food baby's needs... The most effective meal they've ever made to drive addiction and sales for their food.

"Whose character is going to try the McPrego first?" Fun doodle prompt with some friends.

[caitthebellyartist]

Tell us a little about Cait and Tina! What are they like? They're both adorable!

Both Cait and Tina are sister.

Cait is the older sister and works at McPreggo. She got the job after Tina told her about it. After the first day, She was hooked.

Tina is the younger sister and usually stay at home. She is lazy and doesn't do much. mess with Cait at times, After Cait started, Tina would come along everyday and order her "Usual" order and get it for free, but she has to clean the house before Cait comes back home.

They both like to compare and challenge each other of eating McPreggo food, But Tina like going overbroad.

Inspiration and Mcpreggo Menu by @greatbigbellies

[greatbigbellies]

Contestants eat 1 sausage egg muffin and then wait for the judge to give an official start. Then they eat as many mcpreggo burgers as they can. Eating must stop before growth occurs. Use the remaining time to offer them sides if they can stomach them and, most importantly, move the contestants to a location with ample room for growth.

Oh HELL yeah! Clever use of the menu items for extra spicy kink scenarios! This is what I like to see!

For those who don't want to scroll through the menu again, the sausage egg muffin, when eaten, delays the onset of McPreggo pregnancy effects by 1 hour starting at the time the sandwich was finished. So anything eaten after it basically stays delayed until the hour runs out, then it all hits at once.

So anon here is suggesting having a McPreggo burger eating contest, where contestants down as many burgers as they can within an hour, with other side items if they have room, then once the hour is over, it all slams into them at once, leading to a freight train of rapid-onset-hyperpreg for everyone involved.

Which, uh, sounds amazing. Imagine the number of destroyed outfits from everyone blowing up at once. Love the premise.

[wannabepapa]

I'd have you eat a Labor-Inducer for sure!

#5 The Labor-Inducer

Well… not QUITE real labor, but this breaded chicken sandwich packs a spicy kick with pepper sauce, knocks you up with one, and causes regular braxton-hicks for the duration of the food-induced pregnancy! Those those who enjoy a more intense experience!

just one baby? starting out small but it's better to have a humble start so when someone else wants to stack on from this meal i'll be better prepared! i will want you sitting with me because i'm gonna need attention the whole time

i will politely demand your hand to be nowhere but my bump. i want to have you tell me how weird it is to feel this food baby moving around and how my muscles tighten from the braxton hicks contractions. this may not be a real baby but until the magic is over this is your baby now and your fake partner needs to be loved on please and thank you

order for me off the mcpreggo menu 💕

Bree discovers the mcpreggo and eats like a pig

[tum-bakery]

I think they’re talking about the McPreggo trope popularized by Dr—worm (I can’t spell their tumblr name) where a character eats a hamburger that gets them pregnant

You see anon... I don't think this is true... it has too much logic.

[my-little-yellowbird]

Ok Birdy - you said you want a REAL storyline for the Turners. What would constitute a real storyline in your book? (Not being sassy, just curious)

A valid question. I should state first that by “real storyline” I was making no slight on stay-at-home-moms.  

Full disclosure, I happily left a career in education (one I loved!) to stay at home for 19 years with my kids. Clearly, I recognize that choice as a real story, and one that can be filled with the intense, daily-life sort of drama that Call the Midwife excels at producing. However, I don’t want that to be Shelagh’s arc in series 7.  Motherhood is just one facet of some women’s lives, and indeed full-time child raising is only for a fraction of our adulthood.  

If series 4 had featured a SAHM Shelagh, I would have embraced that arc. It seemed to follow, considering the mental and emotional energy at Shelagh put into having a child. And oh! It would have been a great chance to see those sweet little domestic Turnadette moments!  However, when they took the story in another direction (“making things better”), I embraced it.  A woman’s desire to have a child is not affected by her desire to have a career.  Yes, she struggled and wanted that baby so much (her little face when she said “What’s she like?” is overwhelming).  But why does that imply that she will be happy staying at home?  Motherhood is one of many facets of a woman.

Shelagh’s desire to work doesn’t seem like simply a feminist choice, it feels like her natural, very personal choice. She wants to “make a difference,” and she has the career and husband that enable her to make that choice. She chose the life as a Sister, a division of nuns dedicated to service rather than seclusion.  Sisters are truly working women, and that element of the order must have appealed to Shelagh from the start.  She doesn’t simply want to go to work, she must. It is her vocation.  

I did think, however, that the idea that Shelagh could run a clinic with a 6-12-month-old along for the ride was unrealistic and impractical.  You can only leave Angela in the pram, or in a playpen, or get someone else to hold her while she cries for so long. And a dirty nappy? “I’m sorry Mrs. McPreggo, can you wait until I’ve wiped my daughter’s wee little bum before I finish your chart?” It’s not just about proximity (sorry, Fred)– being with a baby is a full-time gig, so Mrs. Penney’s role worked for me. Clinic-parenting was not going to cut it. And a 3yo plus a baby? Shelagh would be lucky to pee without company, nevermind running a clinic or the Maternity Hospital.

Which takes me to the question @thymefortea asked.

Real stories? Post-partum could be interesting. The Pocket Soprano has shown us she’s got the chops for it. And of course, there will be some domestic fluff and angst created by three children. But for me, the fluff ship has sailed. My heart would enjoy those stories, but my head would be disappointed if we don’t see something that continues Shelagh’s growth as a modern woman.

Heidi Thomas said, way back in series 3, that Shelagh was sort of an everywoman for many of the changes women experienced in the Sixties. Let’s continue that line of thought. Why doesn’t she get any pushback from other women for working and leaving her children at home? That still happens today!!! Shelagh’s sharp as a tack–”the best midwife in Poplar”–let’s see some evidence. A story where Shelagh solves a medical dilemma, perhaps diagnoses a condition no one else sees?  Real conflict with Patrick, the ordinary, do-the-work-of-married-life kind of problems would be great to see, too.  I do think we have a tendency to canonize Shelagh (myself included). Let’s see a flaw other than “Bossy Shelagh” or “Hyper-Organized Shelagh.”

So while I would love to see more moments of Turners bathing Teddy, or a tearful, exhausted Shelagh, worn from the demands of child-rearing, I’m happy to leave that to us as fans to write, draw and discuss.  

Of course, this is my opinion.  Your mileage may vary, and all that.

So what is your mileage?
