Let's face it: Labor hurts. And how could it not hurt? Your uterus will have to rhythmically squeeze your baby down toward the birth canal, then your baby's head will have to push its way through your cervix and out your vagina (yes — out that same tiny opening that you once thought was too small to fit a tampon). Plenty of gain (you get a baby when you're done), but also, plenty of pain. While there's no getting around that, thankfully there are ways you can get through it. Whether you opt for an unmedicated childbirth experience or choose one of the many pain relief options available, as a pregnant woman in the 21st century, you can take some of the labor out of childbirth.

Pregnancy Weight Gain
Website: http://alittleinsight.com
This is one of the few times in life when gaining weight is a good thing. But there's an art to pregnancy weight gain - you have to put on pounds the right way.
All right, girls — it's time to embrace the scale and put on a smile every time the numbers on it creep up (no freaking out allowed). The facts on the ground (and on the scale) are that you're pregnant and you're going to gain weight — and for once in your life added pounds are something to welcome, not dread. In fact, by the time your nine months come to a close, your weight-gain total should tally up to about 25 to 35 pounds above your pre-pregnancy weight — the recommendation for the average expectant mom.

Increased Sex Drive During Pregnancy
Website: http://www.alittleinsight.com/
As often happens with even the most intense pregnancy symptoms, you're not alone. A lot of women find that pregnancy increases their sexual appetite, leaving them hungry all the time (even when their partners are more than satiated). And with all those hormones flowing, it's understandable. During your pregnancy, your breasts are getting bigger and more sensitive (and what translates to pain in some women may actually feel pleasurable in lucky you). Your vulva is becoming engorged from extra blood flow and even more sensitive. Hey — with all that increased sensitivity, your body could be fired up just about all of the time, even without any prompting from a second party. CLICK BELOW FOR MORE INFORMATION...

Stages of Childbirth
Websit: http://alittleinsight.com/
From that first contraction to the final push, here's what to expect during labor and delivery. Compared with nine months of pregnancy and a lifetime of parenting, the hours spent delivering a baby don't seem like a lot. Unless it happens to be your body that's going to be laboring, panting, pushing, and recovering. Then, oh baby, do those hours ever loom large…and long. As well they should — they represent the uniquely transforming in-between hours that separate your life Before from your life After, and that will tie you to your child forever (even as the cord that physically ties you together now is cut). Delivering a baby is the challenge of a lifetime, but it's also an emotional, mental, and physical rush like no other. It's an experience that you may be looking ahead to with trepidation (or even dread), but that you'll likely look back on with nothing but the purest joy (and maybe a little relief).

Are you so done with pregnancy?
Website: http://alittleinsight.com/
The last few weeks are always the longest — but they can also be the busiest. So much to do, so little time (or so much time…)Eager to see your feet again? Desperate to sleep on your stomach — or just plain desperate to sleep? Tired of those midnight (and 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. and 4 a.m.) bathroom runs? Welcome to the end zone — the point in your pregnancy where time seems to slow down, and the waiting becomes interminable (especially if your nine-month pregnancy is now entering your tenth month). Looking for something to do while you wait for the magic moment of childbirth?(besides bite the nails on your twiddling thumbs)? Pass the time productively by getting as much done as you can before the big day (or night) arrives. Here's a handy roundup of everything you need to check off your list before that D-day dawns.
