I want to share with you the experience of my first pregnancy. I'll start by telling you that, like many other women, I had to learn patience to become pregnant for the first time. I was ready, but my body was not. My body had to prepare for the big moment. On top of that, I needed to learn more about my body.

So, my husband and I had to wait, period after period, negative result after negative result, wish after wish. In fact, I even had to buy the famous "Ovulation Tests" to discover that I was one of those special cases. That's right! Instead of ovulating between the eleventh and fourteenth day of my menstrual period, I ovulated between the eighteenth and twenty-first day of my period. Hmmm! No wonder we were having difficulty coinciding with my beautiful ovum!

But once I learned my lesson, and discovered my grand moment of ovulation . . . I prepared a romantic party for two, and the rest is history. One day, the miracle happened, the result of my pregnancy test was positive. What emotion! My joy was so great that I could not stop crying. Finally, I "daughter, lawyer and wife" was to become a mother.
