Pregnancy test videos

Would you watch a video of someone reacting to her pregnancy test results?

Yeah, me neither.

Still, there seems to be an audience for the videos...or maybe our narcissism has just reached a new high.

Marie Claire describes a trend of women posting recordings of their pregnancy test results on YouTube -- or, if you prefer, "WombTube."

A little strange? Maybe. But amid a tendency to live-tweet labor and delivery, I'm hardly surprised that seemingly intimate aspects of motherhood have entered the public sphere.

What do you think?
