I always lose many followers when i post ilyapreg but i must speak my truth . and my truth is that he had an early term miscarriage and then the twins and then the triplets . and they all lived happily ever after and shane played hockey till he was like 45 . what's so wrong with that

Thanks @myshangel and @grabmyboner for introducing ilyapreg to my dash after almost a week straight of only shanepreg

ilyapreg but the decade in boston really did its damage and he’s craving dunkin, so shane is having to drive them across the border an ungodly amount just to get the cocoa mocha iced signature latte (decaf) and two dozen munchkins

Ilyapreg campaign so real and true!! Would you mind sharing your pitch 👀

I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED

it started with this post by @thedoubteriswise: "even though no one is explicitly saying [ilya] can't feed and hold and comfort, those things end up being withheld from him in favor of being allowed to provide, dominate, and command." it's not meant to be a gender thing but i think it's not NOT a gender thing. let ilya be nurturing!!

i also love @myshangel's thoughts on ilya's "hatred of being seen as vulnerable vs the intrinsic and visible vulnerability of pregnancy." i think ilya struggles with the vulnerability of being taken care of (see: ghosting after forehead kisses, not responding to shane's "are you ok?" texts, responding to shane's "i want to help" with "ok take off your shirt") but if he's pregnant, well, that's a different story, that makes him feel worthy of care in a way he might not feel normally. and shane loves taking care of him (see: intervening at the press conference, holding him while he cries, carrying his bags, making sure he has water shoes) like that's his baby! and his baby is carrying his other baby!

from a narrative and characterization standpoint, there's so much to explore. how does ilya's romanticized view of his mother shape his experience of motherhood? does he feel more connected to irina? more sad/angry/scared? is he worried about postpartum depression? postpartum psychosis even?

and most importantly, i just think it would be hot.

i love shanepreg and ilyapreg IN THEORY but i gotta keep it fluffy and light and silly in my mind. pregnancy is actually like really scary to me, especially when viewed in relation to gender roles. if i think about it too seriously, i'll just get sad and freaked out 😆

I did it! I bit the bullet (that’s such a weird phrase) and wrote the start of a big scene I’ve had on my mind (pregnant Ilya Rozanov wanting a homebirth but of course Shane’s terrified something will go wrong so they weigh the pros and cons!

I reminded myself it didn’t need to make sense or have all the dots connected right away but I started!
