I never knew when you got pregnant that it meant, not only your belly was going to get bigger, but also your butt was going to enlarge and you were going to get back fat (seriously it's sick!). Are there any other things that I should know about before I wake up one morning and discover some other crazy thing that has happened to my body? I think my college roommate put it best, she said that "being pregnant is the best science experiment that could ever happen to your body." :)
Hmmm. Just about everything gets a little bit fatter. And every pregnant woman wears her pregnancy differently. For me, it was chubby cheeks. I gained weight in my face. Never knew to expect that...
ReplyDeleteI could write a book. But it is so much more amusing or horrifying to find it out on your own. Your roomate was right. whooaaaaaaah(Evil laugh)!
ReplyDeleteNo kidding. I was seriously amazed at the changes my body went through in those months. That is a great way to explain it. It's like you get to see how much your body can take. Plus you get to see all the strange ways your body reacts to it. I learned that sneezing constantly can be a result of pregnancy. Like, what the heck!
ReplyDeleteI never expected the serious heart burn I suffered. You have a longer torso than me so it might be better for you (its caused by your stomach being so squished that the acids have no where to go but up). I distinctly remember for asking for Tums while being in labor - I had to sneak them because the hospital wouldn't let you have them (dumb). I haven't had a tums since!!!
ReplyDeleteFat is not the worst of what happens. Things happen to your body, that have never happend before. As your body plays cruel jokes with you, keep your eye on the prize. All the fat, pimples, & hair are worth it when your child is here.
ReplyDeleteYour feet get bigger!
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't expect that now would ya! Leggy blonde with big ol' clown feet!
