    I still refer to my kids as it sometimes. No need to read into things over much.

    Don't tell your company you're pregnant they'll let you go immediately.

    Be careful. It's easier for you to injure yourself while pregnant. Has to do with the effects of your hormones on your ligaments. You will get tired more easily, so be prepared for that. Diet, exercise, and proper hydration are difficult for most drivers, they are much more important now. Dehydration especially can cause serious pregnancy issues.

    Other than that start planning, you can't have the baby on the road, and you can't raise it on the road. Figure out the plans and start moving that way.

    Be sure to hop up the vitamin intake. Don’t want all of your teeth to suddenly rot.
