Memoir Of A Mother-to-be

When I became pregnant, I read everything in the baby section. It felt like I was wearing rose-colored glasses. I wanted an honest, raw sense of what I was in for, and I never got that. Thank goodness my mother, friends, and sisters werenat afraid to tell it like it was. Yes, labor hurts. Yes, life was going to change dramaticallya]forever. Having my son was the most incredible act in the world. I love him more than life itself. I wanted to share my story so soon-to-be moms out there would know theyare not alone. Just because youare not aglowinga doesnat mean youare abnormal. Just because pregnancy wasnat all that you thought it would be doesnat mean as a mom you wonat prosper. This is my story about becoming a mom. It is probably a lot like yours.
