~ My family and friends and Rene and the pregnancy fulfilled me with so much love ~ ~ Whether your pregnancy was meticulously planned, medically coaxed, or happened by surprise, one thing is certain -- your life will never be the same ~ ~ There's a marketing scheme that tells you that pregnancy and child rearing will make you into a moron, that your kids are only happy when you're buying them stuff. It's hard being a parent, but I laugh a lot and smile a lot and really enjoy it. The ratio of laughter to sadness is higher. There's part of me that wants to broadcast that. Parenting only affirmed what I already cared about, and that's good ~ ~ I am absolutely over the moon. The baby's due next June. But I haven't found out the sex of the child and doubt I will. I want it to be a surprise. on news of her pregnancy ~ ~ If pregnancy were a book they would cut the last two chapters ~ ~ Love and pregnancy and riding on a camel cannot be hid ~ ~ Love and pregnancy and riding on a camel cannot be hid ~ ~ Everything about woman is a riddle, and everything about woman has a single solution: that is, pregnancy ~ ~ In pregnancy, there are two bodies, one inside the other. Two people live under one skin.... When so much of life is dedicated to maintaining our integrity as distinct beings, this bodily tandem is an uncanny fact. ~ ~ Pregnancy seemed like a tremendous abdication of control. Something growing inside you which would eventually usurp your life. ~ ~ Because they've either conveniently forgotten with time or they're trying to be supportive, most mothers won't tell you how hard pregnancy (and then childbirth) can be. Let me tell you, it is. It's brutal sometimes! But, if I did it, ANYONE can do it. I mean, I always knew I was meant to do something really BIG in life, and now I know that this was it. Screw winning an Academy Award someday ... I GAVE BIRTH ~ ~ When you gain 50 pounds during pregnancy like I did, you fear that you'll never get back in shape ~ |
