When our surprise pregnancy came along, she took the ride with us. She went to all the ultrasounds and even the delivery. For the past 2 yrs she has been a second, and sometimes first, mother to her baby sister. <BR/><BR/>Best birth control we could have ever come up with. She witnessed the swelling of my ankles along with my tummy, the excruciating pain of labor/delivery, and she has changed way more stinky diapers than she ever wanted to.Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07070779590510829959noreply@blogger.com
