And that’s a wrap on Chapter 3! Thank you as always, for reading along. I’ve really enjoyed reading everyone’s reactions this chapter, especially as y’all learn more about Imogen’s history and her home life. The spectrum of reactions to Jonathan is a feature, not a bug. š
Motherlover will be on a three week break as I prepare the next chapter, returning Wednesday, February 20!

TRANSCRIPT
Panel 1 (Open panel of Imogen and Jonathan, with Imogen looking pensive)
Imogen: Yeah, I guess.
Panels 2-3 (Imogen sighs)
Panel 4 (Imogen, looking towards the reader, soft smile)
Imogen: Have you had lunch yet?
Panel 5 (Jonathan is rolling back under the car as Imogen looks on)
Jonathan: Not yet.
Imogen: Do you want a sandwich?
Panel 6 (Imogen climbing the back stairs to her house)
Jonathan, off-panel: Sure, babe. Sounds good.
Imogen: Sure thing, daddy-o. I’ll call you when it’s ready.
Panel 7 (Open panel, no features)
Either: Love you.
Other: Love you too.
Absolutely loving this comic. I’ve been reading and loving How Baby for ages (first time commenter though) even though I am neither a mother nor a baby – but I am a raging lesbian, and knowing that Imogen will eventually get away from this fake-friendly non-supportive d- is giving me life. Can’t wait for the next update – thank you for all your beautiful and kind work.
I feel sad for her, she does not dare to say that she really wants it
Love your comics, your art is lovely
That quiet sadness as Jonathan crushes her dreams, and Imogen just accepts it like she’s always done
