My husband gets me pregnant every year so I don’t have to get my period

She’s over her time of the month — period.

Mommy influencer Chantel Schnider claims to have devised an unorthodox way to avoid her “miserable” menstruation — by getting pregnant on the regs so she doesn’t encounter her period at all.

The Canadian mom of two — who is pregnant with her third child — detailed her bizarre period-prevention measures in a video with 4.4 million views.

“When he gets you pregnant every year so you don’t have to deal with a period,” declared content creator Schnider, who has more than 660,900 followers on TikTok and 150,000 more on Instagram.

Posting under the moniker the Alexander Family, Schnider and her husband, Aaron Alexander, regularly upload videos about the trials and tribulations of expecting a little bundle of joy, including pregnancy-induced cravings, bad gas and even just trying to leave the house.

Fortunately, having a bun in the oven isn’t all bad, according to Schnider. In the aforementioned clip, the menstruation abstainer details how getting preggers annually prevents her from having to have a period.

In the six-second snippet, the perennially with-child woman can be seen dancing with her fam and feeding her fella sweets alongside audio that sings “Thank you to my man.”

This Aunt Flo avoidance technique sounds counterintuitive, akin to purposefully contracting COVID-19 to avoid getting a shot.

However, she says that pregnancy is preferable, declaring in the comments: “My pregnancies are absolutely miserable but somehow I’d still rather be pregnant [than have] a period.”

Schnider will likely stave off menstruation for quite some time, as she plans to have up to 10 kids, according to another comment.

The Post reached out to the prolific creator for comment.

Needless to say, Schnider’s unconventional method drew mixed reviews. One person dubbed the serial child-bearer “smart,” and another labelled her husband “superman.”

“Omg I love this,” gushed a third.

Some supporters claimed they also had success with getting knocked up to stop the cycle.

“Same, I’ve been pregnant since 2020,” fawned a fellow prenatal traveler.

Others were less enthralled. “Ummm … even if it’s a joke it’s not really funny tbh,” scoffed one naysayer, while another wrote, “That’s not cute.”

Others suggested that Schnider use birth control.

Meanwhile, though shame around periods is being talked about more openly, actually talking about them seemingly remains frowned upon, with many women claiming they’d rather suffer in silence than tell their bosses about their periods.

Around 6 in 10 women say they wouldn’t feel comfortable discussing topics such as menstrual cramps, Pap tests, breast examinations or menopause with a manager.

In an effort to counteract the stigma, some enterprising artists are creating literal period pieces.

In 2021, Italian painter aleXsandro Palombo sought to overthrow time-of-the-month taboos with a series of installations that depicted Kim Kardashian and Marge Simpson revealing their menses.
