having a baby is the easy part. they have the medicines so you dont feel labor, diets and stuff to get you through the pregnancy. its the after the child is born thats hard. is there someone who has a young child who would be willing to designate you mommy for a weekend or week so you can see if you are ready to be a parent? I did this with a friend for a week and by the end of two days I knew I was definately not equiped to be a mom yet.
