You have such a positive, celebratory view of motherhood! I remember being so turned on by W's changes during her pregnancy with S5. The physical one's were awesome, as she became almost super-female in my eyes. She also seemed to soften and become more intuitive during that time.
She had to have a C-section due to S5 being breeched, so she didnt' get to experience natural child birth. I think this started her off on the wrong foot - having to do post-surgery recovery while trying to get to know S5 and us as as newly expanded family of three.
