Okay but imagine how scared Eloise will secretly be when Penelope’s pregnant. She was worried for her sister and Kate of course but Penelope is her platonic soulmate. She can’t deal with loosing her and is over at their house constantly, so much so that she’s there when Penelope goes into labor. Of course this is day Colin had to run an errand and be delayed by weather so of course Eloise is the one by Penelope’s side as she brings her child into the world. But when a tired but happy Penelope asks if Eloise wants to hold her goddaughter, she privately thinks that perhaps babies aren’t so bad. She doesn’t want to have them but they’d make fantastic minions. And no one said that Colin’s children had take after HIS Bridgerton side. They could very well take after their Aunt Eloise. Plus it will drive Colin nuts if his children adore her and encourage their Aunt Eloise to visit.

All this will be very valid considering that S3 is going to be Polin and not Benophies. And since Penelope is Eloise soul sister, she'd be twice as overprotective than Colin with her best friend first pregnancy.

This didn't happen in the books because Penelope and Eloise got married within less than a month of each other.

As in, Eloise ran away during the same ball where Polin revealed Penelope was lady Whistledown. And got married two weeks later (gosh the Bridgerton timeline of events is crazy) So technically Agatha and little Penelope Crane were born with barely some months of difference too.

In the show this is all going to be different because Eloise will be right there in Polins face insisting on being the spinster aunt to their children and not missing a moment of Penelope's life. Also because she and Penelope probably have a deal that if Colin doesn't treat Penelope right, then Eloise can kick his butt and move in.

I'd love to see Penelope (and later Sophie) help Eloise get over her fear of childbirth while at the same time increasing all her fears tenfold. Because while she did confide about her fears to Daphne, I think that coming from Penelope, Eloise would actually begin to understand that with a good partner marriage and babies are not the prison she seems to think it is.

Also since we have the whole Agatha vs Auggie naming clash. So Penelope's firstborn could be a Elise or a Louise, or a Callie Eloise.

I think that Colin missing out on the begining of Penelope's labor and Eloise being there to help her would be 100% more dramatic if it catches them somewhere in town. Like, they're doing some light shopping for the baby and Penelope's water breaks leaving Eloise to panic and have to take Penelope to the nearest inn while their servants try to find Colin and a doctor.

I also think that if Eloise is there to panic trough her best friend's first pregnancy it would lend credit to why she later finds Phillip's medicinal plants knowledge so attractive.

And besides we all know that Eloise will attempt to move in with Penelope and Colin using any excuse she can manage. The polin kids will be her ticket to getting a permanent room in their house.

Colin will know no peace. That's why he's going to be eager to see her walk down the aisle with whoever manages to catch her interest

And that's the tea

*Sam, Steve and Bucky are watching a baseball game*

Bucky : honestly being kicked in the balls is worse

Steve : Bucky they gotta push a softball sized head, followed by a football sized body out of a coin sized hole.

Sam : yeah plus it can last hours, even days AND you can die from it

Bucky : so? It's natural, their bodies were made to do that, ours weren't made to be kicked in the balls.

*Nat walks in*

Nat : what are we talking about?

Bucky and Steve : *blushing because they came from the 40's where you don't talk about this stuff with women* nothing!

Sam : *calm* Bucky here is saying bring kicked in the balls is worse than childbirth

*Nat sits down between Sam and Steve*

*Steve and Bucky stare in horror*

Nat : Really?

Sam : yup, says its not the worst 'cause the woman's body is made to do that.

Nat : *stage whispering* Well we shouldn't tell them about periods, it would blow their minds.

Bucky : *whispering to Steve* what's a period?

Steve : *whispering* I dont know, aren't you the one that had all those sisters?

Bucky : yeah but your ma was an over sharing nurse

....

Steve : *jabs at Bucky's side* ask

Bucky : *jabs back* no you ask

*Sam and Nat watch, tongue in cheek*

Sam : Tasha what's a period?

Nat : I'm glad you ask Sam. You see it happens roughly every 28 days and lasts for about 7. You bleed out of your viginia blood and tissue that was built up in your uterus in preparation for pregnancy. But since there's not fertile egg, it all has to go. So your body pumps out a hell of a lot of hormones that makes you crave food, have mood swings, bloat, have ance and sometimes really horny before you actually bleed and while you do. Not only that but you also cramp as your uterus muscles work to get ride of all that unneeded blood and tissue. Sometimes its so bad you can't even walk or see. Now if you aren't careful with your tampons you could get toxic shock syndrome and become infertile in the most painful way possible and back in the day you could've died from it.

*Steve and Bucky stare in horror*

Sam : yeah I'll take being kicked in thr balls.
