Rachel Blanchard

Rachel: I know some women find it tough going, but I really love being pregnant. I have to admit to suffering from dreadful bump envy. I think I'm happier being pregnant than in any other place. It's the most fantastic feeling there is, the anticipation of a new life. So I do feel really jealous when I see another woman with a cute little baby bump just starting to show, and usually end up going home and telling my husband I want another baby. We've already got two, but ideally I'd like to have four children if I can. Fortunately, my husband Adrian enjoys trying to make them as much as I do, so I don't think that will be much of a problem!

Rachel: I don't think anyone ever realises how hard it is to be a mother until they become one. But it's also incredibly rewarding too, and I wouldn't change a thing about it.

Rachel: I have a friend who puts some pretty provocative pictures on Facebook and every address she's ever lived at and I think... I just don't understand it. I do think it's kind of dangerous. The internet is amazing, but there is definitely a limit and I don't think we've really realized what that limit should be. It can be kind of isolating and it can be completely obsessive; just the need to check everything all the time. I'm taking a little break from the internet right now. I'm still using my e-mail, which isn't that much of a break, but I'm trying not to use the internet too much right now and I'm not on Facebook or Skype. You don't want to live your life around a computer.
