What does "I'm bearing." or "I'm baring" means? I was listening a pod cast called Conan o'brien needs a friend. During the show, a standup comedian Nikki glaser said like "I'm bearing." or "I'm baring". What does that mean? I googled like an hour, but I still can't figure it out. Nikki was talking about her wedding toast at her best friend's wedding. She said something like she always thought their kids will be friends but it is not gonna be possible because she is bearing. She actually said "I'm bearing." though. I'm not even sure whether she said bearing or baring or some other words. Is there anyone who can explain this?

Not sure here but she might have said "barren". Which means she was sterile or unable to have children.

I guess it is "I'm bearing...". If so, she had always been putting up with something unpleasant about her "best" friend at the bottom of her heart. In other words, she actually didn't like the person so much.

You are right. It does not seem to make much sense. Exact words leading up to it? Reference to podcast?

I listened to the part you mentioned and she said, "It's not going to happen actually because I'm barren." This is a way to say that she can't have children.
