I did the needle test several times, and everytime it says I'll be having three kids. I never was much into the idea of my own kids, but this makes it seem more real (even if it IS just a game)
What's it like to be pregnant?
What's some of the wonderful emotional feelings you go through? To know you have a tiny human brewing inside of you.

Exciting and scary at the same time. It's a wonderful feeling to have your baby move and kick inside you. (Unless you are trying to sleep, lol) Some days you cry and other days you are so happy your feet don't even touch the ground. Being a parent is great. Not to mention you get a lot of attention from your friends and family. Other than that I really can't explain it to you, it's a feeling I really hope you are able to experience.

It is very good. regnancy goes on for 9 months/40 weeks. There are certain foods you cannot eat thus you must watch what you eat.
It is exciting bt can also be very stressful. You have ultra soudns every so often to make sure the baby is ok and healthy.
You will not get your period for the entire 9 months until a couple of months after the baby is born.
Anytime around where the baby is due, your water will break and your undies will be soaking so you know your water broke. When your water breaks, it means the baby will come anytime within the next 24 hours.
When the baby is close to coming, you will experience contractions that usually last for up to 15 seconds and are usually 3, 15 or upt op 20 minutes apart. Then you will be induced (Taken to hospital) and anytime after that the baby will come.
You jsut have to put up wth thwe pain and keep pushing. Labour can last anytime up to 24 hours. It took my aunty almost 24 horus to have my cousin(Boy).
You usually stay in hospital for a day or two or up to 3 days depending on what you want jsut to make sure the baby is fine and healthy anmd ready to go home. This is an exciting moment. You can also chosoe to have a home birth where you give birth at home.
I know a baby that only jsut came out of hospital the other day after spending 6 mopnths in hospital because his oesophagus was not connected to his stomach so he could not eat or drink. From the day he was born he spent 6 months in hospital. While he was in hospital the family lost EVERYTHING. It is really sad and I cried when i heard it. The baby is a boy and his name is Harrison. His problem was on "Saving Babies" and his storyw as on the news.

I didn't have an excellent pregnancy. I had no serious health problems, but I had all the little nigly things - chronic heartburn, dizziness, headaches, morning sickness. When I was in my last trimester, my daughter kicked my left ovary all the time and would hiccup for 20 minutes! As far as the emotions go, it's all very overwhelming, especially if it's your first child. The fear you experience is strong and you ask yourself a million quesions. You cry alot and are sure that you'll suck at being a mum and do everything wrong. But all in all, it was the best thing I ever did. I have a beautiful baby girl that smiles all the time, sleeps through the night and is as smart as a whip... what more could I ask for - could anyone ask for? I hope this helps :)

It's absolute heaven! It made me a little nervous to think about being a mom and going through labor, but I was so happy. I just took it one day at a time, and although I wasn't ready for a teenager. I was ready for a baby. It is so amazing to watch your baby grow. And it doesn't stop with giving birth the feeling will go on forever. I loved every minute and that's why I'm trying so hard to get pregnant again. There is nothing that can describe the pure joy you feel in your heart. Not to mention that people are nicer to you. I hope that helped!

At first you are filled with joy. You can't wait to tell the world (except maybe your boss). Then morning sickness (or for me 24/7 sickness) kicks in, but some how you find the strength to get through it.
In the second trimester you are just so proud when that "baby bump" starts to appear. It is the only time in life that you will be anxious to get on the scale at the doctors office and WANT to see it move up!
By the third trimester you just can't wait to hold that baby in your arms. You are so in love with him/her. Every doctors appointment becomes the focus of that day. I loved going to the doctor and hearing my daughters little heart beat. And the ultrasounds, AWESOME! However, you are very, very tired and will find much pleasure leaving work early and kicking your feet up for a bliss full nap (but you won't feel guilty about it, your pregnant!)
People treat you differently when you are pregnant. Life is almost like a dream. Everyone is so sweet and kind and smitten with joy in your presence. There is NO feeling like being pregnant and I feel blessed to be a woman.

Well for me, with my first I went from terror to joy to worry and to a state of not caring in about an hour. After the shock wore off I felt so wonderful. There is no way to describe it completely. But then the hormones kicked in and you can go from being on top of the world to crying your eyes out to yelling at anyone that looks at you wrong. It is a very emotional time and those emotions are vast, you will feel just about every emotion you can feel.

It is the most miserable and happiest time in my life.Your emotions are flying high,you have morning sickness,cramping and all the yucky stuff in pregnancy then you have the thoughts of what your baby will look like,if its a boy or girl,what morals will you install into the baby as it grows,you feel all the movement,you hear the heart beat at the docs,you see a ultrasound of your lil one.Being pregnant is emotionaly straining in good and bad ways but once the baby is born the mojority of mothers lose the bad emotional feelings.

I though it was the most wonderful thing I have gone though. I loved being preg! I felt so happy when I thought of my baby and how I get ot be the one to bring him in to this world. Like someone said before people are so nice to you. You get doors open for you people move out of your way with a smile. But hey it changes when you have the baby then those same people who would have kissed the ground you walk while youe preg is anoyed that your baby is crying and you just can not seem to stop it no matter what trick you pull out. It is funny how people are! :-)

to be pregnant is beautiful. You will have a wonderful emotional feelings in which you yourself could not describe. That's why god create women to have another living thing growing in them, sharing every part of it. You can feel the fetus kicking, moving and this natural feeling of yours, loving caring, eager and the most of all ready to be a mother.
This tiny human then soon will share all the trust and comfort with you. This is a never ending feelings.

It depends on what kind of a relationship you are in when you get pregnant. If you are in a committed loving marriage, your pregnancy can be a wonderful life changing and fulfilling experience. If you are just "playing house" with no commitment to the father of your precious child, the experience can be stressful, discouraging, maddening, life threatening, and self-destructive. Having a child is a big change and a bigger commitment taking two loving parents to pull it off effectively for the long term.
