giving birth
"Giving birth is like making love in many ways. And I hope that by the time you finish reading this post, you look forward to your birth experience as much as you look forward to a romantic Friday night with your hot hubby ☺. AND, I hope you're ready to give birth like you make love!"
"Or are you like a third of mothers who are so petrified of giving birth that they liken it to experiencing a terrorist attack?"
"Giving birth is like really bad constipation, but eventually the poop comes out. You can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
A bad marathon seems like eternity."
"Giving birth is like a wedding... why focus so much on that ONE day.... the rest of life with that baby (aka the marriage) is what is really important."
"Nowadays giving birth is like another wedding or burial, those precious moments in your life that you need to dig deep into your pockets for."
"Giving birth is like taking your lower lip and forcing it over your head."
