“Before I was pregnant with my first son I envisioned my pregnancy like this:  I would have the fridge stocked with organic food, I would exercise, I would listen to Mozart and read to my baby.  Ha!  I lived on ramen noodles because I was so nauseous all the time I couldn’t even look at a vegetable!  I was so tired I couldn’t even fathom walking around the block.  I had to stop reading parenting magazines because I felt like a failure like I wasn’t a good enough mom and the baby hadn’t even arrived yet!”
