Yes
So, uh, I have a bit of a huge announcement for you today? Yeah, you got that right — we found out a couple weeks ago that we were expecting our first child! It’s totally crazy. Most women like to keep that for themselves until the high risk of miscarriage is over (I’m only halfway through that period), but… hey, this comic is the story of my life, right? I want to document this whole insane pregnancy thing in comic form, for me, for us, for this baby, and for you guys. No matter what happens.
Now I know some people aren’t into baby things, and I accept that. I might be pregnant, but I’m still the same silly, self-deprecating comic artist. This pregnancy will be (and has already been) a very good source of comic material and I’m sure I’ll be able to keep you guys entertained for a while. I have no plans of quitting yet.
My point is, things will probably change a little, but I hope you’ll stick with me nonetheless. It’ll be interesting, I assure you!
<3
Hey congrats! I hope your pregnancy goes very smoothly!
OMFG congratulations =D!!
Oh man, congratulations!
Congratulations, guys!!! I’ll only read baby comics if you get your baby to cartoon and play video games as soon as possible.
Don’t worry, it’s ALL PLANNED. Mwahahahahaha
<3
Congratulations! I am looking forward to little baby boum(s?) in your comics!
Whoa, congrats! That’s wonderful!! :)
Congratulations! I look forward reading all of your funny pregnancy stories and how you guys will do with your new baby. I’m sure you’ll be able to document many interesting moments :)
Congratulations!
Congrats Lil’ Mama-to-be!
Wow, congratulations!
Made me smile. Not many things that do that. Not sure what to say about this.
Waaaaaaw!! Félicitations!! :D
Just know that I will always refer to them as ‘Baby Boum’ :D
XD that made my day!
Congratulationsyay!
Congrats!!!
Whaaaaaaaat! Quelle belle nouvelle, féclicitations!!
Congratulations!
My best wishes :-)
Congrats!!!
You need to do a comic about Pierre-Luc’s reaction!!!!
He was pretty smooth and happy and calm about it. Then he went on doing Pierre-Luc things: finding the stupidest baby name. It’s my next pregnancy-related comic for sure. ;)
Party involving making a list of the worse baby names ever, at your house! Woo!
Woo!
After all this time checking your comics through RSS feed, I decided to drop a comment. Congratulations! Wish you guys the best with that pregnancy!
Congrats on the baby!
Wow!
Je suis si heureux pour vous :D
Félicitations à toi et Pierre-Luc ;)
Thank you so much everybody, I’m so overwhelmed by all the love! <333
OMG! Congrats :D *hug* Love the last pannel!
Congrats. Looking forward to the diaper jokes. :)
haha im sure there will be plenty of weird craving comics, and probably plenty of potty/ toilet ones as usual, im pretty sure, when pregnant babies like to play kickboxing with your bladder
Really wonderful timing on this strip. I hope your pregnancy goes well!
Even though I don’t actually know you, I’m super excited for you! You’re going to be a great mom!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Try not to be too stressed about it, otherwise you’ll get weird baby/toilet dreams…
OMG!!! <3
BABIES!!!! :3
I hop when he/she grows up he/she won't see the dr seuss baby dream you've had… HEY! maybe tha't why you've had those weird baby dreams O_O
*hope
*comic about your dr seuss baby dream
Well the baby had weird hair, but s/he was very sweet, so I’d be fine with that XD
I just remembered that couples with kids usually have baby books. Are you gonna have one too?! That would be so awesome! The first page would have this comic in it and the caption: ” Baby Boum! “
Hmm, probably! My parents had one for me too. Instead of filling up text I guess I could put the comics in it? Hahahaha
That would be an awesome idea! :) And when he or she gets older, you can show these comics to him/her <3 :)
That child is going to hate me so much once s/he’s a teenager XD
congratulations!! :D
Congratulations!
This strip is such a good capturing of the moment.
Congrats, sweetie! Much love to you two and the soon to arrive. :) <3 <3
I’m looking forward to some puking/morning sickness comics soon.
Congratulations!
I am looking forward to seeing you draw a baby bump
I already knew but congratz again :D Somehow I feel like the comic of you and the stairs of you appartment in winter will get some epic proportions in the few months :p
Nooooooooo :C
Oh my GOODNESS. I’m just gonna join the crowd and say Congrats as loud as I can. Looking forward to crazy baby stories.
Félicitations! Je suis super contente pour toi! :D
Signé Murielle ou ”la fille en DA qui connaît Laurie Gagnon et Geneviève Demers” :P
Je pense que je sais t’es qui! ;)
Merciii!
This is an epic jawdropper. =D A little Boumie or Pierre-Luc JR. running about in our hearts, I assure you, already. I’M SURE YOU’RE EXCITED! I’m sure you’ll make a wonderful mother! So, added question for later, Any ideas on names?
And, right now (please?), was that dream about your cousin’s baby a result of your pregnancy and worries?
I’m gonna answer that second one here: who knows! I didn’t know I was pregnant when I dreamed of this. Maybe? I heard raging hormones make you dream of funny things…
Thanks for the answer! I was super curious! =D And I’ve heard the same! Plus, your body knows you’re pregnant before you do! Can’t wait for the next Boumeries!
¬¬…. no.. im not cryng, im too manly for that….. T_T
lol, gratz sam, start thinking a name, thats always a bitch, unless u already have it in mine like my friend, she called her baby “marley” for bob marley
*have it in mind******** god i hate typos
That’s so wonderful! I’m so happy for you both!!
Ohhh! Félicitations!! Quelque chose me dit que les strips sur des rêves weird vont revenir en force! Vive les hormones…
Et ce p’tit bébé boum sera un bébé aimé à grande échelle, même par des inconnus ;)
Omgosh!!! Congrats! Ahhhhhh I’m so excited for you! And Pierre! Yay! You must both be so happy! :D
By the way, what was Pierre-Luc’s reaction? Your mom’s? I’m so excited already haha!
I told Pierre-Luc that evening when he came back home, and he was super mellow and cool about it, no stress. When I told my mom, she couldn’t stop laughing haha
Laughing? Is that a good thing or a bad thing? :o
haha
Giggling I guess XD It’s a good thing!
Congratulations!
That is awesome news! Congratulations to both you and Pierre-Luc :D
The comic is going to get even more interesting now, and I look forward to read more about your future experiences. I’m also curious as to what baby name Pierre-Luc came up with.
EEK! Congrats to you both! I’m so happy for you I actually squealed out loud when I had read this through.
OMG, congratulations, Boum! This is very touching – have to admit I have tears in my eyes… xD;
You guys are going to be such cool parents! <3 <3
Woohoo! I wish you all the best. :)
That is the coolest thing ever! Congrats!!!! I can’t wait to read your awesome baby comics!!!!
I always lurk and never post but from one artist to another, congratulations! You must be over the moon! Good luck in all your endeavors from now on, Boum! We are all here for ya!
congratulations X3
Nous venons d’apprendre la même nouvelle, et avons été très touchés par cette si jolie illustration. Félicitations!
Félicitations à vous aussi :D
congrats!
I dont know if you like pomegranates or not, but avoid eating them while pregnant, studies have shown they’re high in phytoestragins that can cause the fetus to separate from the uterine walls.
In the three years i’ve lived here two of my friends have had children and what not to eat dominated many discussions.
Again, congrats!
Really?! I’m not into that, but that’s still good to know O_O
Thanks!
Congrats.
Are you going to have an online baby shower?
CB
Thanks! But… uh… how does that work?
Congratulations and good luck, yo! XD
That is so adorable, congratulations!
Félicitations à vous deux! :-D
Ça veux dire qu’on va te voir dans les conventions avec un petit bedon! Squee!
Je ne suis vraiment pas inquiète de la tournure du comic, je suis certaine que tu va trouver des annecdotes très drôle à raconter sans que ça tombe dans le “rose-bonbon”. ;-)
Merci!!
