With a little help from a smartphone and YouTube, lots of parents-to-be are opting to post their pregnancy announcements on the Web. The videos can be real tearjerkers, but while some go the tender route, others opt for something more elaborate.

In this case, elaborate means an insanely overproduced, nearly six-minute montage of Britney Spears’ music videos remade to announce and detail the arrival of a new baby.

That’s right, Jerrad and Machel Green created the “Baby One More Time” pregnancy announcement video you never asked for. And once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

It’s a treasure trove of terrible pregnancy puns and baby wordplay. “Oops!… I Did It Again” is reimagined as “Oooh, We’re Pregnant Again,” “Toxic” becomes “Nauseous,” “I’m a Slave 4 U” transforms into the bizarre “I’m A-Voiding You,” a song that details how you avoid your friends when you’re pregnant, and they even rework the already loathed “Pretty Girls” as “Little Girl” to announce the gender of their bundle of joy.

The overall effect is fairly nauseating in that trainwreck way where you have to watch until the very end. We’re sorry and you’re welcome.
