It’s been 5 months already?

Wipes away tear. :slight_smile: What a beauty! Here’s hoping for this for all our pregnant Dopers!

The three months I was on maternity was the first time since I was 11 that I didn’t have a job.

Don’t you worry your pretty little head. You’ll have plenty to do. Schedule about 10 hours a day for holding your child and saying “I made this? How neato! How beautiful! Look at the little toe nails! Awww, she’s sleepin’!” etc. ad naseum.

I was a wreck my first day back to work. Now I’m plotting on how to stay home and have another one. Wanna buy my house? :slight_smile:

Thank you. Its scary, and gets overwhelming if I think about it to much. Mouse_Spouse accuses me of pregnancy denial. (I’m not doing anything stupid or dangerous, like drinking a bunch of booze while smoking Cuban cigars. I avoid talking about things like buying a mini-van and freaked out in Babies “R” Us. It was all the pastels, I swear!)
