Does This Baby Make Me Look Fat? (aka BabyFat) is a scripted, comedic digital series chronicling all the “joys” on the path to motherhood. Short, funny and a little raunchy, the show follows Stephanie Jackson and her real-life husband Zach Lewis on their misadventures while trying to have a baby.
The series was born (get it?) in 2014 when Stephanie decided to share a heightened version of what she was experiencing in her personal life. She saw the potential for comedic material surrounding the topic of fertility, though she significantly underestimated how long it would actually take to get pregnant.
BabyFat has received numerous accolades, including two Telly Awards (for Comedic Web Series and Use of Humor) and four IndieFEST Awards. But the most gratifying response has been the feedback from fans who experienced similar struggles, reaching out across platforms to share how the show helped them find levity in their own lives.

“Jackson’s series is exactly the kind of poignant entertainment an expectant mother will want to turn on when she’s tired of watching yet another crib or stroller review (or when she just wants to laugh at the actual insanity of the entire pregnancy process).”
