Why is pregnancy deemed vs. so negative?

Why does everyone deem pregnancy as such a negative thing? Even the married couples who’ve been together for a very long time, seem to get the short end of the stick when they find out they’re pregnant. Everyone seems to shed such negative light on having a baby, like your life is about to end. Even the people that are happy for the pregnant people, have some sort of negativity toward it. "Wow, they’re a lot of work!" "Oh, my, ANOTHER little one?", Even when the couple only has one or two older kids. The list goes on and on. I know this is a naming site, but, it was just on my mind, and I knew of this site, and this place you seem to get questions answered pretty quick. Thank you!

Genie's Mailbag

Dear Genie, I need you to help me find a Greek name for a girl. I've already used Theodore and Sebastian for her siblings. But every other Greek girl's name I see is either too pretentious, hard to pronounce, or just too popular now. The only name I can picture using is Caroline, but it's not Greek!
Baby Name Genie:
The Greeks would name her Charissa Zoe. Then, they would stuff her in a wooden horse and give her to the Trojans. So, my advice would be to borrow the name but not the rest of their tactics.
