In fairness to Mom, I didn't use birth-giver to be cold or cruel or heaven forbid, woke; I wanted to make it clear that she was my actual, biological mother and I am the fruit of her literal womb. (And I believe she probably *thought* she was helping me with that clever how-not-to-maybe-not-drown tip, as effed up as it was.) And thanks for the lovely compliment! I do love nothing more than making people smile. :)

Isn’t Fruit of the Womb a brand of birthing parent underwear?
