Photo 13: Pregnancy

Photo 13: I took this photo at the Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Festival. I saw this pregnant woman standing with her husband and she seemed really happy.

Sociological Perspective: How with this soon-to-be mother be affected by American ideologies of motherhood? If she is a working mother how will she balance work responsibilities and responsibilities of motherhood? Will she have to work the second shift or will she hire people to help her? As a racial-ethnic woman how will she teach her children about being a racial-ethnic child? How will this soon-to-be mother manage to ensure that she is being a "good" mother to her child according to societies standards? i.e. cleaning, cooking, providing protection and support, caring, being emotionally there, etc.
