Your Attitude Check

Some people say the glass is half-empty, some say it is half-full. But what about when you are pregnant? Is there a difference between seeing 9 months as too long and seeing 9 months as just long enough?

Believe it or not, your attitude will be a great revealer of where your heart is. A heart that is self-centered will not be able to enjoy the subtle nuances of pregnancy because it is too busy focusing on the inconveniences it has to suffer through.

Look over this list and see if there are areas in which your attitude needs a little adjustment.

I Hate Being Pregnant Because:
I Love Being Pregnant Because:

My body is so big and fat

My baby is getting so big and strong

My clothes are too tight

Even my clothes remind me of my baby

Everything makes me sick, I can't eat a thing

I'm so picky now, I only eat the best food

Everybody asks me when I'm due

Everybody is interested in my baby

I can't stand to cook

I get to take a break from cooking

My back is always sore

My baby is growing so fast, sometimes my body can't keep up

There's too much information to read

I'm learning so much

I'm moody all the time

I don't even try to hide my feelings anymore, I have to work on my problems

Life will never be the same again

Life will never be the same again
