One of my best friends (and a sorority sister) just gave birth to a darling little girl.
She says you do forget the pain of labor, as soon as the little one is put into your arms. (Note: I'm not a mother, yet. My husband wants kids... so I hope she's right!!
)
Your husband will take care of you - and at the end of it all, you will come out of it with a precious little bundle of joy.
Take care.
