Viking Moms Were Total Badasses

Turns out, Viking women weren’t just chilling at home—they were out there wielding swords, rocking helmets, and even starring in wild revenge sagas while pregnant! A new study just dropped, showing that pregnancy in the Viking age was way more political and intense than we thought. From foetuses destined for vengeance to pregnant women as warriors, this flips everything we thought we knew about Viking gender roles. Also, the way they treated pregnancy and newborns? Not always as sweet as you’d hope. #Vikings #History #WomenWarriors #Archaeology #MindBlown #Science
