I'm sensing a theme here. I'm with you. here in California I gained a greater respect for the Hispanic culture. No one was nicer to me when I was pregnant and a new mom then the Latino men working in cafes and such. if there wasn't a seat available they would go in the back and find one for me . An appreciation of the mom. less work, or nice work and no blood. I’m sensing a theme here. I’m with you.

And, of course not having a period. What I liked the most about being pregnant ( I was pregnant with twins) is being out of work for 5 whole months. And, of course not having a period.

You learn to cherish those 3 weeks out of the month, and those 8-9 glorious months you're pregnant. Morning sickness and peeing 30 times a day doesn't even compare to a never-ending period.

You have to do something REALLY awful for anyone to "yell" at you. Basically you can get away w/ murder b/c no one wants to be the person who made the pregnant lady cry @ work. I am seriously scared now to go back to work (maternity leave ends in two weeks... GAH) and I wonder how long I can milk the "don't yell at me, I just had a baby" thing.
