When I had my son (12 years ago yesterday) I had alot of complications (you don't want to know). I had to spend the last two months laying down. I lived alone, and only a neighbor who I barely knew would check in on me once in awhile. Luckily, she was around to give me a ride to the hospital when my doctor had to do an emergency ceasarian.

I definitely felt a change in how I responded to the world, to images, to everything, while I was pregnant. It is not a time for seeing anything scary, stressful, or disturbing. Keep to the lighthearted, warm, funny, romantic.
