I know ...Swear to god, Lady, don't read that book! I know there's this driving madness to know just what's going on in there week-to-week ("the bean is 3/4 of an ounce now!"), but I came to think of all of those week-by-week what-to-expect books as what-can-go-wrong-now weekly freak-out facilitators. It took me months to finally stop. There are a couple of websites that serve the same informative purpose without the trauma. I'll send you some URLs.<BR/><BR/>There's so little out there in the prenatal lit world reassuring you that in fact, everything's most likely going be just fine. You and your body can do this. Will do it. Are doing it. You have everything you need to make a perfect baby.<BR/><BR/>And, you're gonna rock the momma world!!Kris McNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17639608803037531216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13537757.post-1125174490127852442005-08-27T13:28:00.000-07:002005-08-27T13:28:00.000-07:00I.hate.to.scare.you.even.more,but.my.husband.was.a...I.hate.to.scare.you.even.more,<BR/>but.my.husband.was.a.footling!<BR/>Seriously,he.came.out.doing.the.<BR/>jazz.splits,possibly.even.with.<BR/>spirit.fingers,but.I.can't.be.sure.<BR/><BR/>Please.excuse.the.retarded.typing,<BR/><BR/>Sincerely,<BR/>Thespa.CebaronEvehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13540373421574507821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13537757.post-1125085518996027722005-08-26T12:45:00.000-07:002005-08-26T12:45:00.000-07:00hi! i am no expert on this motherhood stuff - but ...hi! i am no expert on this motherhood stuff - but here is what i will tell you.. throw away that book...please! they should give you coupons for co pays in that book for shrink visits - for you and the kid... if you want to buy books.. 2 suggestions 1) The Girlfriend's Guide to Pregnancy 2) My pregnancy week by week.<BR/><BR/>Or just get the first one...
