For many women, pregnancy is a time for reflection on one's life, a time to reevaluate their priorities and goals, and a time ... to lie. It's true. Even the most honest among us start to fib, fudge, and stretch the truth when it comes to our blessed state.

Whether it's all the extra attention or pressure to be a picture-perfect mom from the get-go, it seems these little twists on the truth escape our pregnant lips before we know it. Here are 10 of the top lies pregnant women tell. Of course, not every woman lies about all of these things, but I think you'd be hard-pressed to find one who hasn't or won't lie about any of them.

Kevin and Marina Krim, who suffered unbearable tragedy and loss when their two children, Lulu and Leo, were stabbed to death in their New York City apartment, allegedly by their own trusted nanny, deserve good news. And what they have is amazing, awesome news. News that will make your heart leap. Marina and Kevin announced on Facebook that they are pregnant! Marina is expecting a little boy in the fall.

Well mom -- you did tell us. You said, "One day you will thank me!" You told us that again and again and again. Little did you know, while you thought we were ignoring you, we heard each and every bit of guidance you dished out. We just weren't ready to accept that you might be right -- about any of it. We know now that all of the nagging heartfelt advice really did mean something. We can see that now. And yes, while it is slightly annoying -- we are learning to appreciate your wisdom. See for yourself ...

Having kids is the best thing I have ever done and also the hardest. I know if I'd been 10 years younger, I would have been entirely unprepared. If I were 10 years older ... well, we can't all be as lucky as Halle Berry. 

My parents had me at 35 and I used to wonder why they waited so long even though they looked like kids in all of my baby photos. Now I get it. They were basically kids up until that point!

I believe the 'sweet spot' of childbearing -- physically and emotionally -- comes after we've all had ample time to check some boxes, get some things out of our systems, and most importantly, time to really, really want the job. In other words, the perfect time to become a mom is in your 30s and here's why:

I have two kinds of friends: Mom friends and the friends I had before I became a mom. And never the two shall meet. That's not true. They have met. Sort of. But I think everyone has different sets of friends. I have more than two sets. We all do. We have the friends from our past. Work friends. Facebook friends. Super close friends. All kinds of friends. And we don't always hang out with these friends together. When you become a parent, you end up gaining even more friends -- other parents. When you become a mom, the amount of friends you have goes up.

This leaves me confused. I am the one who said that motherhood is lonely and essentially whined about feeling isolated. But I do have more friends now than before. What the heck is going on?

In what is truly a medical miracle, a woman who was born without a womb is currently pregnant. In August 2011 she had the world's first successful womb transplant, and now, less than two years later, here she is expecting a child. Amazing. 

According to Reuters, the 22-year-old Turkish woman, Derya Sert, conceived the baby via IVF. She's currently in good health, and doctors are hoping for the best for her and her baby.

If she delivers a healthy baby, it will be such a huge milestone for many women. According to the American Free Press, at least 1 in every 5,000 women is born without a womb. With so many conditions that cause infertility, there's at least hope for pregnancy. But without a womb, there is no hope ... or at least there wasn't.

Being a mom is an amazing thing. Truly, it is. I wouldn't change one thing ... except that time we all had the throw-ups. But even then as I was cleaning up my kids' puke, I realized I wasn't concerned about the staining or the smell, I was worried about my kids. That's love. But sometimes, despite all of the love, motherhood is a lonely gig.

My twins are 3. They like to hang out with me, but not really. They want me to play with them, but then want me to leave the room. Sometimes I hear "Go away, Mommy!" I guess I'm not cool enough to vrroomm cars across the map on the floor, too. Mommy! Can you help me click this in? my daughter asks. Her unicorn's hair clip came off. I fix it. Thank you, mommy. No you stay here, she says as she walks away. So I watch them from a distance, but still close, and wonder what my childless friends are doing.

A mother of two is causing quite a stir for admitting the unadmittable -- that she wishes she'd never had her two children and believes that her life would have been much better without them. Woah, lady, this is not something you admit in print -- and use your real name and face -- unless you want to get stoned to death, hopefully just figuratively. But 57-year-old Isabella Dutton is ready to take on her haters. I'm not sure there's any reason to confess in a hugely public forum that you never wanted your two now-grown children, and in fact, still feel that way. But she's also pretty brave, because she's just voicing what lots of other mothers feel.
