OMG.. When she is "on" (which she often is), she totally wants to dictate the flow of the universe.
Her personality is more like Ekade's than mine. She is very much an inspiration for how I try to play.. not just the personality but also the enthusiasm.
There is nothing funnier than watching a 4 year old go on like she knows somethiing. In her mind, she knows how things should be. I wanted her to be socially comfortable, but she is socially fearless.
She even tries to "lawyer" her father. To which dad often plays "because I said so, that's why" for the win.
Don't get me started on my kids.. I could go on forever.
Act like an adult, play like a child.

It really depends.. some mothers to be don't get sick at all.
Your body will be completely hijacked by this process. Just enjoy it as best you can. There is nothing you can do about it.
Oh.. but there is a wonderful prize at the end! Once you hold that in your arms, you will not even think about what you are feeling right now.

Morning sickness usually happens in the morning for the majority of sufferers. Saltines and shortbread cookies help. So does 7-Up.
However, for some of us it is a 24/7 irritation. The side benefits of this irritation are a healthier diet, and a sensitivity to chemicals that are dangerous to the development of the fetus. It also enforces no smoking and no alcohol consumption.
However, smoking husbands tend to be a bit testy about having to smoke outside and deorderizing from the smoke before approaching their mates. They are even testier if they don't do all that, and then have to clean up the resulting mess.
