I suspect I developed the ability to read in dreams as a means of subconsciously giving myself the middle finger. I used to have these PTSD-flashback dreams, not of terror, but of absolute defeat. back in a situation I'd escaped and no way out. But there was a striking absence of written words in them. In fact I don't recall reading anything in any dream until I noticed the lack. I was a signal. If it were real, there'd be signs everywhere. The dream faded off for about a year.
Then it came back, with words.
I'm not given to dreams like that anymore. When my brain wants to fuck with me it is subtle. For ex: I'm an insomniac. I'm pretty sure I had a dream last Thursday that I couldn't fall asleep. I lay awake for two hours or so, then it was two hours later, and I had memories of lying awake through sunrise. But the sun wasn't up.
Well played, brain.

While he's changed his mind on things in the past ("I think this is the most risqué the comic will get" comes to mind), I'm pretty sure Jeph has said that pregnancy (possibly specifically unexpected/unwanted) arcs are out.
Rghfrgl:
He flat out said no babies, possibly while wearing a 'No Babies' T-shirt and glasses.
ReindeerFlotilla:
Does baby Hanners violate that rule?
Zebediah:
No, quite the opposite. The old "Hannelore's imagined pregnancy" arc was a direct response to people suggesting that Jeph have an arc with Faye getting pregnant after her fling with Sven. This one is probably a poke at those who have suggested a Marigold pregnancy arc.
