The wedding dress is bought but there is ONE major setback.
Your pregnancy symptoms are beginning to show...
You have morning sickness, stretch marks, food cravings and a small bump forming...
Question is... Do you TELL your future wife? That you’re pregnant or say nothing and hope she won’t notice.
Anto Whelan has this dilemma. He and his four friends have gotten themselves pregnant due to a freak misunderstanding and they are about to go on a life changing journey as the first pregnant men in history get in touch with their feminine side in more ways than one. With a week to go to the wedding and Anto already been unfaithful maybe it’s fate that will step in and teach Anto and his male counterparts the error of their ways. If a man can get pregnant can he then cope with all the side effects and hormonal changes? Would men get up at night to do the feeds? How will men cope with weak bladders and urinating when they sneeze? His prospective bride Jenny suspects he is committing adultery but will she find the evidence in time? And how will Jenny and her friends cope when they find their men folk are suddenly expectant in more ways than one? Set against the backdrop of FUNKYS disco bar in North Dublin step aboard a roller coaster ride of gender reversal where emotions and gender imbalance are dealt with in stark realistic undertones
Warning: contains scenes of men been degraded as they cope with living with female symptoms some readers may find the subject matter distressing or hilarious. Men of a sensitive disposition may wish to look away now.
