Jonathan May 13, 2008 at 11:03 am: You rock.
sugarplum's mom May 13, 2008 at 11:15 am: Oh! You’re almost there! Pregnancy time was weird for me… every day seemed to drag by so slowly and then at the end it hardly felt like 9 months had gone by at all.. hang in there!
Ava May 13, 2008 at 11:20 am: I had forgotten about all of those midnight trips to the bathroom. I remember it got to the point I had forgotten what it was like to have a full nights sleep.

It sucks to go through it, but it’s fun to remember it.
amanda May 13, 2008 at 11:29 am: I promise that after what feels like seven years, it’ll be over and your waist will come back and you will see your kids holding hands and it will all have been worth it.
Shamelessly Sassy May 13, 2008 at 11:39 am: how do you live on only 2 cups of coffee per day? I could never do it.
InTheFastLane May 13, 2008 at 11:47 am: I seems like forever at this point, doesn’t it.
Heather May 13, 2008 at 11:58 am: Let me just say that when it gets to days left: 9 it isn’t any easier.
Trish May 13, 2008 at 1:17 pm: Ahh the nocturnal bathroom trips. I could literally walk to the bathroom, pee, and get back in bed with barely waking up.
ali May 13, 2008 at 1:32 pm: dear god, i wish i drank that much water. you = awesome!
flutter May 13, 2008 at 1:41 pm: friends? Countess as your tears, love.
catnip May 13, 2008 at 3:22 pm: Oooooo, you’re 2/3s of the way there!
anymommy May 13, 2008 at 3:45 pm: new baby girl or boy, daughter or son, sister or brother, family of four…… priceless
Erin May 13, 2008 at 5:12 pm: I was just there- I have a 5 day old daughter. All of that seems years ago today. It will all fade so quickly when you hold you new baby in your arms.

And the crazy part? I would do it all over again:)
Phoenix May 13, 2008 at 5:18 pm: I love that you added the coffee part in there. I am just not strong enough to give up my one vice. So I’m glad to see that not everyone does.
Heather May 13, 2008 at 7:07 pm: I don’t envy you!!! Pregnancy is hard work!
Madge May 13, 2008 at 8:36 pm: no one ever told us all the lovely lovely stuff about pregnancy! take care of yourself.
Ava May 13, 2008 at 10:30 pm: Amanda, you waist came back?
Ava May 13, 2008 at 10:36 pm: Amanda, you’RE waist came back? Doh!!
Bipolarlawyercook May 16, 2008 at 8:21 pm: You are far, far braver than I.
