In my experience, when women are pregnant they're very proud of their bodies, but the moment the baby's born, they're not. I don't think it's important women return to the shape they were before. I think if your body grew a baby, that's an amazing thing and you should be proud of that. But it's hard for women to feel that way.

The shamans are forever yacking about their snake oil miracles. I prefer the real McCoy, a pregnant woman.

Pregnancy is a wonderful thing for the woman, it's a wonderful thing for the husband, it's certainly an inconvenience for a business. And whether people want to say that or not, the fact is it is an inconvenience for a person that is running a business.

The world was full of dangers now that she was pregnant: mercury in tuna, hot tubs, beer, secondhand smoke, over-the-counter medicine. Not to mention crazy baby-abducting fairy kings.

Don't Breathe a Word


If you have a chronic health condition, such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, or even multiple sclerosis, you may find your symptoms are less severe, or even disappear, in pregnancy. Experts aren't sure why this happens, but it's thought to be the big changes happening to your hormones and your immune system. Sadly, once those hormones settle down after the birth, conditions tend to re-appear. But at least you get a break!

Nah ... I mean, I'm already pregnant, so what other kind of shenanigans could I get into?

Conception may surprise a woman who finds herself pregnant when she has hardly begun to think about having a baby, or had time to recover from the last one, or had even been determined to avoid pregnancy. It may be the fulfilment of a long-held childhood dream, or reversal of her child-free existence. Pregnancy may fill an aching, inner void or reflect a broody baby hunger, or it may constitute an unwanted invasion. It may be a first pregnancy; a second or third to extend a family; a first with a new partner; or one replacing a previous miscarriage or loss. Conception may be motivated by a compelling need to undo the past, or change the future.

Pregnancy: The Inside Story

If I had my life to live over, instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: not enjoying every minute of pregnancy doesn't make you a bad mom, or a bad person, or an unappreciative human. You can be grateful and excited about the ability to have a baby, and well-prepared to raise a baby and super devoted to and already in love with your upcoming baby, and still hate the day-to-day reality of being pregnant.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to conceive.

People always say that pregnant women have a glow. And I say it's because you're sweating to death.

Of course I can do this. I'm pregnant, not brain-damaged.

CHRISTINE FEEHAN

Ruthless Game


That first pregnancy is a long sea journey to a country where you don't know the language, where land is in sight for such a long time that after a while it's just the horizon -- and then one day birds wheel over that dark shape and it's suddenly close, and all you can do is hope like hell that you've had the right shots.

EMILY PERKINS

Novel About My Wife


My first pregnancy, my pregnancy was the only thing on my mind at all times, more or less. At the very least it co-occupied space with more pressing matters. I could tell you how many weeks and days pregnant I was. Second time around I frequently forgot.

I didn't know how babies were made until I was pregnant with my fourth child.

The only time a woman wishes she was a year older is when she's expecting a baby.

MARY MARSH

With all of my pregnancies, I lived a minimum of 45 minutes from the hospital, so roadside delivery was a very real possibility. I always kept towels in the car just in case. Too bad I couldn't fit a midwife in the glove compartment, too!

When I was pregnant with my first child, if I wasn't at work I was doing one of three things: sitting on my couch half asleep, eating on my couch half asleep, or sleeping (probably on my couch). That was one chill-ass pregnancy, folks. Sure, I had nausea, sciatica, shortness of breath, but no one symptom lasted a terribly long time and life was OK. My second pregnancy I was chasing a two-year-old all over the place, commuting over an hour to my job, vomiting for 24 weeks, and I never rested. Still, somehow, my second pregnancy was way easier than my first.

The pregnancy, I wouldn't really wish that upon anyone. Anyone. It's all worth it in the end, so I would definitely suffer through that, but pregnancy was not a good experience for me.
