Pregnancy - Those little flutters, kicks, elbows and rolls from the life you're growing inside you.  Knowing that you're doing your best to ensure a healthy baby makes up for all the aches, pains, sleepless nights, all-day sickness, and mood swings.

Motherhood - That first and all other belly laughs.  The first time your little one wants to give you a kiss & won't stop just because you're covered in drool.  Seeing glimpses of yourself and your DH in a little person who couldn't have possibly learned that trait even if you tried to teach them.  Breathtakingly beautiful!

The best part of mommyhood is seeing your child smile so big at you.  It took my breath away the first time my daughter smiled at me.

The best part of pregnancy is the time you get to sit with you spouse and really reflect on things from the past and for the future. Having that alone time for the last few months is soo important and I have cherished every second of it.

My favorite part about being pregnant is how close it has made me and my husband grow.  From planning the nursery to picking names, it continues to bond me closer to him and our families.  Also, his nightly foot rubs aren't bad either!

The best part of being a mom is the pride that I feel every day. I see my son hitting milestones like his first smile, laugh, rolling over, etc and it just makes me so happy to know that my husband and I created this little being that completes our world.

The best part about pregnancy is the extra attention you get, sometimes even from strangers. People are always interested in how you're feeling, they give up seats, etc. And of course there's all the imaginings about the growing baby

re: Mother's Day Gift Giveaway -- Gourmet Station Certificate

the best part of being pregnant was the attention I got!  It may not be the best answer, but it's honest!  Hubby was so attentive and protective over me and 'the belly'.  People were never rude to me (unlike some horror stories I've heard) and often smiled at me or helped me with little things.  It was nice to talk to the strangers about the pregnancy.

It has to be the entire experience of growing a child inside of you, then helping them come into the world and watching them flourish. Especially for first time moms, the uncertainty of each day with your baby is very special and makes you anticipate everyday even more!

For me the best part of pregnancy is the bond that I have with my baby girl (due on 5/24) no one will have what I have with her. For that I am thankful.

The best part of being a mom is the instant unconditional love that you feel for your child. There is nothing else like it in the world. I once read that having a child was like having your heart outside of your body and it is very true!

From the moment I felt my little boy kicking I knew that I would never be the same.  The feeling I get when I look at him is overwhelming at times.  It is just an amazing feeling.  He is now 6 and I still feel this way.  Hearing him tell me I'm the best mommy in the world is the best.

The best part of pregnancy is all the extra attention and being able to say "I'm Pregnant"  and it work as an excuse.

At just over 4 weeks of mommyhood, I think the best thing so far is seeing the gas-related smiles from my darling baby boy, just before he toots really loud!  :)

The next best thing has been celebrating my baby with family and friends over home-cooked meals - this prize would certainly be a gift for my husband and me.  :)

In my opinion, the part of my pregnancy is how amazing I feel emotionally.  I guess it's the hormones, but hey, they are more than welcome cause I feel awesome all the time.  I have alot of energy, but I've had to tell myself to be careful to not over-do it.  Ok, I'll tell you the second thing is connecting to baby girl by feeling her move inside me AND listening to her heartbeat through my stethoscope.  I could listen for hours!
