Excellent post, and you raised some very valid points! You're so right, many women online make it look a breeze to be pregnant, full of sunshine glow and buying cute baby things and feeling fine. But that's not exactly a very realistic picture! From spots to hemorrhoids to sore boobs to weird sensations, vivid and strange dreams, constant urination... it's not all rosy and peachy that's for sure! Perhaps I ought to share some of my 'good, bad and ugly' experiences too, in support of your post!!!

Love that photo by the way... cup of tea on the bump! :-)
