    I never heard of pregnancy brain.  I didn't like being pregnant but I did like having "the book" that gave a weekly blow by blow what is happening this week which was such a great thing.  The pregnancy itself was nausea, dealing with unbearable personal problems at the same time as both pregnancies.  But I never once failed to know the miracle that was happening within me.  When my babies were born, like most moms, I was a changed person.  What a privilege, responsibility, and endearing experience!

      None of your normal behaviors nor attitudes nor diet choices changed while you were pregnant?

    I worked until close to term with each.  I just ate more.  I gained way too much weight each time.  Part was for comfort.  I liked the same foods, however, during the first one I ate a lifetime worth of banana pudding.  I could not get enough.  I mastered the scratch custard and meringue as well.  I still do like it but only occasionally.   With the second my love for Mexican food grew.  Again, I still like it but only occasionally.

    i didn’t have any weird cravings while I was pregnant and my moods were very stable which is actually a big change from when I’m not pregnant lol 

    i was lucky to be one of those people who got The pregnant glow. my skin cleared up, my hair got long and shiny, my nails grew long and strong 

    If I could be pregnant forever I probably would tbh
