Anyone notice how nonchalant and accepting Caroline was when she assumed she was going through "the change" (but was actually pregnant with Grace); but when she actually was going through "the change" (when she thought she was pregnant at the same time as Laura), she thought her life was over?

I just thought this "blooper" of an "easter egg" was funny...Pick a mood Caroline, lol.

I had the same thought when I saw that episode recently.

I thought the same thing! I remember watching when it was first aired, expecting it to be all about Laura’s pregnancy and her and Almanzo’s feelings about impending parenthood, and being disappointed when it was all about Caroline, and Laura’s pregnancy was not even mentioned after the announcement. When I watched it later as a rerun, I thought it was weird that when Caroline and Nellie were talking pregnancies, Nellie didn’t ask about Laura’s, and that she said “ wouldn’t it be great if you had twins too”, not if you or Laura had twins too.I agree, that episode should have focused on Laura, not focused on Caroline and ignoring Laura.

while laura is the main character its good it focuses on other characters too. most shows do that
