		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s funny how at the beginning of the pregnancy, time seemed to stretch out vast before me, like it would never be time for my son to arrive and now that April is almost over I can&#8217;t believe that in just over a month he should be here. I also can&#8217;t believe that I went [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rob and I don&#8217;t talk very often. I can honestly say that he does make an effort to call every ten to fourteen days to see how I am doing and once I say I&#8217;m fine, he gets off the phone as quickly as possible. Emily has come and gone, he was going to be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ben and I are getting to know each other. I can&#8217;t say yet that he seems completely happy and adjusted to his new life but he seems less sad. He is still pining for his other family, not showing too much interest in food. I learned that if I gave him a few pieces of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the interest of full disclosure, I&#8217;m going to go ahead and tell you that the date with Russ was almost over before it even began. I had a fashion crisis going through my closet, which is highly unusual for me. Nothing seemed to fit or fit right, and the maternity clothes that I knew [...]]]></description>
