      I’m fairly certain that if women would get a full disclaimer with all the nasty side effects a pregnancy comes with, they’d give it a second thought… On the other hand, some women insist on having a second baby… And then a third… And a fourth…

        Sometimes they don’t get the really horrible effects, or at least not the first couple of times.

          I remember I asked my husband in all seriousness to please kill me. Not in the heat of the moment, I actually meant it.

          I don’t remember the pain. I guess it must have been bad but I cannot even imagine what it felt like or where it was located.

            I’ve heard it from friends. They got the freshly newborn baby in there arms and immediately feel like they wanna do this again.
