Besides the literal and physical gestation, the poet might have an artistic gestation in her mind. The pain and pleasure are same for all types of creatures. Everyone forgets the painful hours before the time of birth. Everyone becomes happy to see their own lovely new creation. The pregnancy of a mother, of a poet, of a writer, of a dramatist, of a musician, of an artist is the same. There is no fundamental difference among the creators and the pain of gestation.
