Jodi announces that she thinks she might be pregnant, and invites Owen to participate in a journey of discovery. Owen is cool with it as long as it doesn't have anything to do with pee. A good lesson in how not to react in this situation. DadLabs ep 451 is brought to you by BabyBjorn.

JODI: Uh, honey? Um, I’ve been feeling a little different lately and I’ve started to think I might be…

OWEN: Hungry. Yeah, me, too. Tacos? What do you think?

JODI: Uh, no.

OWEN: Constipated? Ok, no problem. I get it. No tacos.

JODI: Pregnant. I think I might be pregnant.

OWEN: What? Why would you be wasting time telling me you’re hungry?

JODI: I was trying to be cute and romantic.

OWEN: Well are you?

JODI: I don’t know I went to the store and got a test. I haven’t taken it yet.

OWEN: Well, was it expensive?

JODI: It was 5 bucks. There’s a 5 dollar one and a 7 and a 9. It’s like the $5 one.

OWEN: So how does it work?

JODI: So you pee on the end.

OWEN: Whoa, whoa, whoa. You pee on it? You couldn’t splurge for the one you don’t have to pee on?

JODI: You have to pee on all of them.

OWEN: That’s gross. It’s a piece of plastic you’re peeing on. It can give you cancer!

JODI: I’m not touching it.

OWEN: We’ll your pee is touching it.

JODI: But it’s pee that’s already left my body.

OWEN: The stuff could go upstream like salmon.

JODI: It’s not even my pee anymore. It’s the world’s pee!

OWEN: I don’t want to get into the technicalities. How does it work?

JODI: Well then we wait two minutes and if there are two bars I’m pregnant.

OWEN: Wow, that’s it? Let’s do it. You – uh, I’ll stay here. Be careful…

JODI: I’m going to leave the door open. We’re bonding.

OWEN: Yeah, but you’re peeing. There are rules about that. I don’t want to even think about you peeing. I just don’t want to experience it in any way. It’s like a wind chime. Can you sing or hum or something.

JODI: [singing] I’m peeing, oh yes, oh yes, I’m peeing.

OWEN: That defeats the purpose of me not knowing you’re peeing.

[Jodi returns]

OWEN: Did you wash those hands? So what’s the verdict?

JODI: We have to wait a couple minutes.

[they wait]

OWEN: Battlestar was good last night.

JODI: Ok, I think we can look. Ok, it’s one bar.

OWEN: So you’re half pregnant.

JODI: No, I’m not.

OWEN: You’re not pregnant. You’re not pregnant! Oh, it’s great… we’re going to try so much harder because we want so many babies in our house and with God’s help we’ll have them.
