Snap, snap and snap! I'm nodding in agreement to all of the above. Just before I knew I was pregnant (and had NO idea why I was feeeling so rough) I met a lovely lady who said that for her being pregnant was like having pms for months... I guess it's the same hormones though. I just figure that perhaps its nice to have a time in our life when we can really let rip with our emotions and have a jolly good reason to!
Same for the fat thing to. I'm amazed at how fat I feel, and I cant wait for my bump to be recognisable as baby and not just increased blubber. I suddenly realised I was waiting for "permission" to look the way I do. How silly of me lol. Now I'm working on shoving my bump out there into the world....
Btw, I think the english speaking at home sounds really sensible! I think languages are supposed to be much harder to learn after about the age 7 which is why we all struggle in the UK, as we dont learn them until secondary school *doh* So if your little girl learns to be bi-lingual from an early age, you're doing great by developing her brain and social skills, and also teaching her one of the most widely used languages in the world. Good for you! I wish I had more languages - my dad spoke about 6, I speak just English, rather badly lol.
