Re: Mothers...how did you get through pregnancy?!
You want kids, so you'll get through it. In the end we always survive and overcome. My mom never got sick with either pregnancies, so everybody is different. I think a lot of emets make it through okay. My friend never got sick either, just had some nausea at times.
I don't want kids, even without emet. So to me its easy for me. But If I did want them, I wouldn't let this stand in the way. Kids are great, it'll be worth it.
“Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”
“We are the girls with anxiety disorders, filled appointment books, five-year plans. We take ourselves very, very seriously. We are the peacemakers, the do-gooders, the givers, the savers. We are on time, overly prepared, well read, and witty, intellectually curious, always moving. We pride ourselves on getting as little sleep as possible and thrive on self-deprivation. We drink coffee, a lot of it. We are on birth control, Prozac, and multivitamins. We are relentless, judgmental with ourselves, and forgiving to others. We never want to be as passive-aggressive as our mothers, never want to marry men as uninspired as our fathers. We are the daughters of the feminists who said, “You can be anything,” and we heard, “You have to be everything.”
