Thinking of becoming a parent.....??????

From the moment that you start thinking of becoming a parent, you are "bombarded" with information about the does and don'ts of what you should do to have the healthiest pregnancy, the easiest and most natural delivery; the best recovery, the quickest weight loss and the most intelligent and beautiful baby!
Don't eat this, don't drink that, you must eat this and you must drink that........exercise, relax and think calming thoughts. Rub this and that in to prevent stretch marks, and a multitude of supplements that can be taken for any possible complaint or condition that you may have the misfortune to encounter during your nine months of pregnancy.
All of this before you even consider the type of labour/birth experience that you would ideally like to opt for........natural, water, home delivery, or "give me all that I can have, and I NEED IT NOW!!!!!!".
Choices, choices, choices; decisions, decisons, decisions and we haven't even mentioned the "shall I breast or bottle feed debate" yet.
