Pregnancy!

March 14th, 2011

Okay, so I have about a month left; and I am done! I feel like an ugly, fat whale. Nobody tells you about the unique oddities of pregnancy. The horrible yet unavoidable gas. I actually gross myself out with my wet dog rolled in cow feces smelling gas. The hairs that grow EVERYWHERE! Yes, everywhere. Ears. Nose. Breasts. Ankles. Don't ask me why. The crazy mood swings that I am surprised don't lead to divorce. My husband has more patience then I thought possible. Of course, I am carrying his freakin kid. He better be good! (for example)

Now to be fair, feeling my baby move inside me is pretty amazing. I don't have the proper words to describe the immense joy and contentment felt in those tiny movements. Pregnancy is a conundrum. A time of joy and happiness coupled with being unbelievably uncomfortable and hormonal. Although the huge breasts are a great perk!
