Re: What They Don't Tell You About Pregnancy!

Lets see...

That I cry if I am upstairs and realize that I left something downstairs. B/c the thought of having to go up and down stairs again makes my lungs hurt.


That swelling can vary... for example, I tried on my black boots last night (fully swollen). Went to put them on this morning and they wouldn't budge! DH tried his best, but they weren't moving. So I ripped them out of his hand and threw them against the wallChat Icon Chat Icon And then cried b/c I felt horrible about that outburst.


That sometimes you just need to cook. Not just bake, but also cook full meals. I made all our meals for the week on Sunday, the feeling came out of nowhere!

Im adding one that they NEVER tell you in the books:

After you pop the kid out and finally get your body back, your hair falls out in clumps for months....it's like one of those nightmares where all your teeth fall out, except you are awake and it is real. LOL.

That you can truly test how much your DH loves you by asking him to get you a big mac at 11pm and he actually gets one for you.

You will want to smack everyone who tells you to get your sleep now, all because it is impossible to sleep and find a good position.

That you will have rage. Serious rip your face off kind of rage. You will be like the hulk, and no one should dare make you angry. Do to this rage you will avoid places like the mall, target, the supermarket where you might act upon said rage.

Totally Chat Icon I cannot avoid commuting to the city, but I now try to avoid ALL stores at any cost Chat Icon Christmas shopping should be interesting

That your husband will eat more like a pregnant person then you will.

That you stop being able to see past your belly quite quickly.

That everyone and their mother thinks it's ok to tell you you're huge and getting bigger by the day.

that at any moment, you can go from smiling and happy to an irrational beast with zero ability to control tears and anger

while listening to even the happiest, most upbeat song, you can totally loose it and cry for no reason whatsoever

its getting harder to wipe Chat Icon Chat Icon (reach)

did my legs get longer? is that the reason I cant reach my feet or is it my belly starting to get in the way (yes, at 16w)

you can crave a food, need to have it that second and as soon as you take a bite Chat Icon iiiccckkk, totally not feeling it anymore

aches, pains, stabbing feelings all over

...that, (if you're having a good pregnancy) you're gonna miss it Chat Icon

... that it's surprisingly difficult to donate/throw away/pass on some of your maternity clothes, especially the stuff you spent waaaay to much on Chat Icon

...that you should take more PG pictures...

...that even a DH who doesn't seem to bond at all with your belly right now can be the most amaaaaaazing Daddy Chat Icon once LO is here....

Re: What They Don't Tell You About Pregnancy!

that the reason you pee every 20min durig the night in the last trimester is because its preparing you for your soon to be SCREAMING hungry child!

oh and that you should really start charing a admission fee for everytime a doctor or nurse enters your specail place! so that you can afford diapers and formula for when the baby comes!
(if i did this i would have been rolling in the $$$)

Just wanted to add even when you have one of the worst most miserable pregnancys... you will still miss it!
