If not, you could just get a fun widget and pretend.
I have to pass this on, a Pregnancy Clock for your MySpace page. Get it here, and share it with any of your MySpace pals or other bloggers who are expecting. Look, it measures your baby’s progress in real time! Maybe I should make a fake baby due date just to watch my fake baby grow.
If only I had one of these when I was pregnant. I remember going into work and saying, “Hey, what are you doing (co-worker).”

Cheers to pregnant women. Do you ever miss being pregnant? Do you think you’ll ever have another baby?

What do you cook up when you’re rushed in the morning? Or in the evening when you get home from work and don’t feel like making an elaborate meal? I thought I would share my favorite recipes in hopes that you share yours.
These are all super quick, super easy and super healthy recipes that are some of Benjamin’s favorites. And I love them too.

I did a Google for “single mother” last night and this site popped up …
SingleMotherResource.com
The site is filled with little anecdotes and tips on managing your life as a single mother. They had me fooled until I read this line, buried in a list of advice on parenting alone:
Your child is powerless and vulnerable to the possibly less-than-ideal consequences he faces as the child of a single parent.
