Awesome – I get to reap the benefits of this little shower, too! I’m off to read & take notes. And possibly puke. But hopefully, just the reading & the note-taking…

I am so out of it I didn’t even know about this virtual baby shower. You know I would’ve participated!

Pregnancy is hard! Venting about it nothing to be ashamed of.

I felt the same way you describe. Once you see that sweet smelling baby head once again, it’ll all fall into place. It does. It will. And you are not alone.

You know being one of those moms who went through a hell of a lot to have a baby I hated being pregnant. I was a nervous wreck, and didn’t enjoy a single minute. So even though I was OVERJOYED that I finally got to bring a baby home, it wasn’t exactly a “rainbows and sausages” kind of pregnancy. More of a “FreddyKruger” type of get this kid out now thing.

I’m jealous of the potty training success. Number three laughs at my successes with #1 & #2 and he says, “HA! I will give you a run for your money lady!”

Don’t cross your legs. It’d be much worse to give birth to a 15 year old. Hang in there.

I think you are my pregnancy doppelganger – I know EXACTLY how you feel. And, yes, that extra 15 really makes a difference the second time around. (If it makes you feel any better, I found the weight loss much easier this time around…)

Not that this helps much, but we’re experiencing the same stuff, too, now that my wife is pregnant with #2. (I’m getting it only vicariously, of course, which I’m sure isn’t as bad.) I’m already a barrel of monkey nerves about being a parent of 2, and we’ve still got 6 months to go!

You’re welcome and good luck! My husband and I share the kid duty – we have two grown sons, so they look after themselves, uh, mostly..lol. Anyway, with our two younger kids, we each get one ready for bed, etc so it’s less pressure, we can get more accomplished and less hassles all the way around. So don’t be afraid to get help from “daddy,” that’s what he’s there for! Team work – make the most of it.

Can’t wait to see the pictures of your new bundle of joy. Best of luck that all goes smoothly. (You, know, with the delivery and all that fun stuff. Heh.) Congratulations, again!
