Pregnancy Stories

Ladies, what do you have to say about pregnancy?
Share your funny stories, horror stories, silly sayings, joyful moments, or ramble about your general thoughts.

I thought of starting this thread when I read Ring's post:

you to relax & just eat all the time."

My sister said being pregnant was like having, "cow brain."

I couldn't have children, which was a okay with me.

What shocked me the most when my sister was pregnant (4x) was how volatile her personality became. She would be enthusiastically happy one moment, depressed and deflated the next. The first two pregnancies were the worst, but apparently she became more comfortable with the experience by the last two - to the point where I nearly forgot she was pregnant until the last couple of months. She is one of those women that glows when she's pregnant, including a clearer complexion, and her nails would always grow long and healthy.
