“I love you boys, but not one of you has any patience. I'm not sure how any of you will survive nine month pregnancies.”
“I love you far too much, I'm sure. But I don't know how to love you any other way.”
“Pregnancy seems designed to prepare you for life as a mother. You start making sacrifices nine months before the child is born, so by the time they put in an appearance you are used to giving things up for them.”
“I'm being sent back to my time, but - I love you, Philip. At any age, in any body, in any era... I love you.”
“No, no! Sit down! I'll do the dishes. After nine and a half months of pregnancy, 26 hours of labor, and 18 stitches, you don't have to do a damn thing around here!”
“A mother who undergoes a nine-month pregnancy is likely to feel that the product of all that pain and discomfort 'belongs' to her.”
