Have you ever watched a movie and suddenly found yourself reflecting on your own journey in the most unexpected way? That’s exactly what happened to me after watching the new pregnancy horror flick Push. If you haven't heard about it yet, the film has a strikingly artistic approach to pregnancy horror but – spoiler alert – it sacrifices believable characters and a clear plot for some visually stunning scenes. (You can check out the full review here.)
So why am I talking about a horror movie on a blog meant to empower hopeful parents exploring home conception? Because Push actually touched on something deeper that’s often overlooked: the anxiety and fear surrounding the mysterious, unpredictable process of pregnancy – especially when you’re navigating it outside the typical medical system.
When Fiction Mirrors Reality
In Push, pregnancy isn’t just a natural miracle; it becomes a source of suspense, control, and dread. While that’s definitely sensationalized for entertainment, anyone who’s tried or considered at-home insemination knows there can be a lot of emotional turmoil lurking beneath the surface.
Questions like: - Will this new method actually work for me? - How do I manage the uncertainty without losing hope? - Can I really trust this process when it happens away from a doctor’s office?
These are very real concerns that can feel isolating.
