\nJohn: Mar\u00eda, \u00bfest\u00e1s bien?
\nMar\u00eda: Es mi ci\u00e1tica. Me duele tanto.
\nJohn: Pobrecita. \u00bfHay algo que pueda hacer para ayudarte?
\nMar\u00eda: No, la verdad es que no. Se me pasar\u00e1. Estoy bastante acostumbrada. Es muy normal en los \u00faltimos meses del embarazo. Lo pas\u00e9 mucho peor con mi primer hijo.
\nJohn: \u00bfQu\u00e9 edad tiene Pablo ahora?
\nMar\u00eda: A\u00fan es peque\u00f1o. Casi dos a\u00f1os. Por fin camina bien y hemos dejado de usar la sillita.
\nJohn: Mi esposa y yo esperamos cinco a\u00f1os antes de tener a nuestro segundo hijo. Hilary no estaba segura de poder aguantar otro parto.
\nMar\u00eda: Ya. El mayor dolor que he sentido en mi vida. Pero se te olvida. Y el milagro de la vida es tan tremendo que quieres darle a tu hijo una hermanita o un hermanito.
\nJohn: \u00bfSabes si vas a tener una ni\u00f1a o un ni\u00f1o?
\nMar\u00eda: No, preferimos la sorpresa. Vamos a hacer algunas cosas de manera diferente esta vez. La \u00faltima vez no quise ponerme la epidural, esta vez me la pondr\u00e9. La \u00faltima vez no pude dar pecho pero esta vez estoy decidida a hacerlo.
\nJohn: \u00bfPablo us\u00f3 un chupete?
\nMar\u00eda: Por supuesto.
\nJohn: Ninguno de nuestros hijos lo us\u00f3. A veces nos preguntamos si hubiera sido m\u00e1s f\u00e1cil. Dormimos muy mal durante los primeros tres a\u00f1os.
\nMar\u00eda: Lo mejor es dormir con tu hijo en la misma cama. Pablo siempre ha dormido muy bien y nunca nos da problemas a la hora de dormir.
\nJohn: \u00bfY tu marido?
\nMar\u00eda: Bueno, s\u00ed. Nada es perfecto. A Alberto no le hace mucha gracia dormir en el sof\u00e1.<\/p>\n
