An ideal pregnancy for me would be one that doesn't end in miscarriage. I would not have sore breasts -- but they would still increase in size. I would keep the food cravings. (Eating Mexican food all the time is fine with me!)

What about you? Which pregnancy symptoms would you do without and which would you keep? How would your ideal pregnancy be?

Let's see....

I would keep the good cravings I had. All I wanted when I was pg was shrimp, salad, steak, cereal, turkey sandwiches, apples and cheese, milkshakes, and peanut butter. I couldn't look at candy, cake, junk food or chocolate (which is my favorite) -- if only I still felt that way about cake and junk!!!

Also, I would have gladly traded the horrendous sciatic nerve pain, the preterm contractions and hospitalizations, and the terrible acid reflux. Oh, and wait, towards the end, Connor's head was lying on my groin and I spent five days crying in agony. Now, I know why football players cry when they pull a groin muscle.

But I suppose I shouldn't scare anyone off. I had a multiples pg and that's why I had loads of issues. It was worth it because I got my two little boys out of the whole thing.
