With so many pregnancies packed into one small town, viewers can’t help but question why the show is so obsessed with expecting moms. Well, fans are hooked now, and they demand some real answers!

Showrunner Patrick Sean Smith admitted he knew how ridiculous the prolonged pregnancy looked and couldn’t resist poking fun at it in the season 5 Christmas episodes as well. In a chat withEntertainment Weekly, Smith revealed,
We could not avoid that one, As we were shooting season 5 and season 4 came out, people started to catch up on the very slow timeline of the series. And that was through pregnant women and through children, because both had their natural course. It’s hard to hide that.

He further explained,
I tried for part one, but it felt too soon and we didn’t have the real estate for it, But it also felt like a great holiday gift to the fans to be like, ‘And Charmaine has finally had a baby after four seasons.’ Lauren, who’s hilarious, posted on Instagram, ‘In two days, I’m going to give birth to two five-year-olds.’

Fans are relieved that Charmaine’s long-awaited moment has finally arrived and hope the upcoming sixth season steers clear of dragging out another endless pregnancy storyline.
