You may hate being pregnant, but the minute the baby is born, she is God's precious child, given to you as a gift.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to conceive.

DON HEROLD

---

Conception may surprise a woman who finds herself pregnant when she has hardly begun to think about having a baby, or had time to recover from the last one, or had even been determined to avoid pregnancy. It may be the fulfilment of a long-held childhood dream, or reversal of her child-free existence. Pregnancy may fill an aching, inner void or reflect a broody baby hunger, or it may constitute an unwanted invasion. It may be a first pregnancy; a second or third to extend a family; a first with a new partner; or one replacing a previous miscarriage or loss. Conception may be motivated by a compelling need to undo the past, or change the future.

Nah ... I mean, I'm already pregnant, so what other kind of shenanigans could I get into?

DIABLO CODY

---

People always say that pregnant women have a glow. And I say it's because you're sweating to death.

JESSICA SIMPSON

---

During my first pregnancy, the people I was around told me how great I looked, asked me how I was feeling, saved the comfiest chairs for me, and stocked the office with decaf tea. This time around, the person I spend the most time with -- although she seems to think I'm swell -- insists on eating my food and waking me up early every morning.

EMILY FISK

---

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: not enjoying every minute of pregnancy doesn't make you a bad mom, or a bad person, or an unappreciative human. You can be grateful and excited about the ability to have a baby, and well-prepared to raise a baby and super devoted to and already in love with your upcoming baby, and still hate the day-to-day reality of being pregnant.

SABRINA JOY STEVENS

In my experience, when women are pregnant they're very proud of their bodies, but the moment the baby's born, they're not. I don't think it's important women return to the shape they were before. I think if your body grew a baby, that's an amazing thing and you should be proud of that. But it's hard for women to feel that way.

PHILIPPA KAYE

---

That first pregnancy is a long sea journey to a country where you don't know the language, where land is in sight for such a long time that after a while it's just the horizon -- and then one day birds wheel over that dark shape and it's suddenly close, and all you can do is hope like hell that you've had the right shots.

EMILY PERKINS

---

The world was full of dangers now that she was pregnant: mercury in tuna, hot tubs, beer, secondhand smoke, over-the-counter medicine. Not to mention crazy baby-abducting fairy kings.

JENNIFER MCMAHON

---

Once pregnancy is confirmed, women find themselves under surveillance. They are expected to attain (and are measured against) standards and targets which they cannot hope to achieve unless they successfully fulfil criteria relating to health appointments, screening, diet and lifestyle. Thus, 'choices' about what to eat and drink, and how best to cope with the work involved in managing pregnancy, are rarely left to the discretion of the pregnant woman herself.

CAROLINE GATRELL

---

My first pregnancy, my pregnancy was the only thing on my mind at all times, more or less. At the very least it co-occupied space with more pressing matters. I could tell you how many weeks and days pregnant I was. Second time around I frequently forgot.

JAMIE KENNEY

---

Of course I can do this. I'm pregnant, not brain-damaged.

CHRISTINE FEEHAN

---

If you have a chronic health condition, such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, or even multiple sclerosis, you may find your symptoms are less severe, or even disappear, in pregnancy. Experts aren't sure why this happens, but it's thought to be the big changes happening to your hormones and your immune system. Sadly, once those hormones settle down after the birth, conditions tend to re-appear. But at least you get a break!

JOHN MUTURI

---

The only time a woman wishes she was a year older is when she's expecting a baby.

MARY MARSH

---

Pregnancy is a wonderful thing for the woman, it's a wonderful thing for the husband, it's certainly an inconvenience for a business. And whether people want to say that or not, the fact is it is an inconvenience for a person that is running a business.

DONALD TRUMP

---

When I was pregnant with my first child, if I wasn't at work I was doing one of three things: sitting on my couch half asleep, eating on my couch half asleep, or sleeping (probably on my couch). That was one chill-ass pregnancy, folks. Sure, I had nausea, sciatica, shortness of breath, but no one symptom lasted a terribly long time and life was OK. My second pregnancy I was chasing a two-year-old all over the place, commuting over an hour to my job, vomiting for 24 weeks, and I never rested. Still, somehow, my second pregnancy was way easier than my first.

JAMIE KENNEY

---

I didn't know how babies were made until I was pregnant with my fourth child.

LORETTA LYNN

---

With all of my pregnancies, I lived a minimum of 45 minutes from the hospital, so roadside delivery was a very real possibility. I always kept towels in the car just in case. Too bad I couldn't fit a midwife in the glove compartment, too!

KRISTI PAHR

---

The pregnancy, I wouldn't really wish that upon anyone. Anyone. It's all worth it in the end, so I would definitely suffer through that, but pregnancy was not a good experience for me.
