I want to know in a paragraph like the one below, which type of "past" you use.
Here is my attempt.

"Cuando estuve embarrazada con Adrian, cada vez que veía un recién nacido, pensaba...."

Quoting posts seems to be broken: it doesn't work on 2 different computers using 2 different versions of MS Windows and 2 different browsers.

"Cuando estuve:bad: embarrazada:bad: (spelling) con Adrian, cada vez que veía:good: un recién nacido, pensaba...."

In this sentence, "estuve" (preterit) isn't compatible with "veía" (imperfect).
