congrats. I have two boys. One five, and one who is almost one. My second is the hard one. He has cried and fussed since he was born. He never sleeps, he has always been very restless. While pregnant I would double over in pain because of the rolling. I did child birth twice with no med except for being induced. Both of my guys have huge heads. They get it from their Mom.

I would do it all again over and over if I could, and I would not change a thing about it. You will never know such pain as when you have a child, and it will be bittersweet because you will never know such glorious love either. Having a child does not change your life, it gives you life. Having a child gives you happiness you could never understand until, like you, a person holds small ,restless, joyful, life in their womb, or in their hands.

These women who think it is a choice whether to have a career or have a baby are nuts. It is not a choice, it is a baby.

My best advice to you is to stay away from women at any and all gatherings. Women have a way of making childbirth sound so horrible and I ahve seen amny women who searh out the pregnant ones to tell their scary tqales to . It is painful, but you will think it all worth it when you look at that babe and know his/her life is forever interwoven with yours. It will take your breath away if you let. The nay sayers who think it is a choice will never get it anyway. Best of luck to you.
