Heh, that sounds about right. I was surprised at how quick the transition from "half-way there" to "three months left" went, but then was also surprised at how those three months began to drag. 7.5 months might be a bit too quick, but that's definitely the point where I started thinking "yeah, I wouldn't mind if it were only a few weeks more. I can handle another 6 weeks, but I wouldn't mind less!"
We did cover post-natal depression in the course, though something I was surprised the teacher didn't discuss is the fact that it can hit the fathers as well as the mothers. It's definitely something I'm planning to talk to him about, both so that he knows to be on the look-out for me, and that I'll be on the look-out for him.
