Wow, the comments on here talking about they shouldn't have gotten pregnant... maybe you can't read through your hatred, but it says these are flood victims, they may have been pregnant before the flooding🙄 they're literally talking about how they have houses but they are flooded now, did you even listen? Where is the compassion for those suffering, what if this was you & your families
