This is imaginary me as a visual for you. You're welcome.
Hey, so I realize that most of these blog posts have been baby related recently and for that, I am not sorry.
This is our first child and all we can think about is everything baby. With that, I give you...Love taps and Baby Brain part two.
You know what really grinds my gears about being pregnant? Questions. We are both fed up with answering questions about 'mom and baby.'
-"How is mom and baby doing?"
-"Suck it!" <-- That's what I want to say but instead I smile and politely say "Awesome!"
The attention pregnant people get sickens me. People haven't even started touching my belly yet and for that, I am sooo grateful.
So why did I just write that I love being pregnant if all I am doing is bitching? Because I secretly love the attention. I may not love the question/answer session that comes with it but I am obsessed with all things baby.
Every time I see someone post on social media about how sick of pregnancy they are I just roll my eyes. This is a piece of cake compared to what is coming.
What I have discovered during pregnancy thus far:
- No morning sickness rocks
- Not gaining weight at 21 weeks along is a major score
- Still fitting in to my regular clothes is amazing
- Eating whatever I want makes me smile
- Pregnant Yoga
- Pools are my friend.(Pregnant friends, you must get in one. Please don't question me and just trust me)
- Having a child lay on my sciatic nerve is slightly comforting at least.
- Baby clothes
- Baby shoes
- Baby brain
Nugget is about this size
At a recent ultrasound we found out that baby is happy and healthy.
She has 10 fingers and 10 toes. She touches her face constantly and doesn't want to put her arm down.
Nugget is also extremely active (though I can't feel it too well)
She already has more clothes than mom and is still collecting!
Josh says:
"Hey princess"
"Hi Lil's! How was your day? Were you good to mom?"
"I love my two favorite ladies"
I am just going to go ahead and label my pregnancy under the 'I didn't know I was pregnant' file. Carrying a life inside of me is a piece of cake. If I didn't feel little love taps every time I sneeze or lay down wrong I wouldn't even notice a difference.
Tell me some cool pregnancy stories!
xoxo- Nystroms and Nugget
The attention kills me. Do I lie and say I'm okay or do I tell them the truth? Everyone knows pregnancy truth is not what the public sees ;)
ReplyDeleteExactly! I wish I could write a "truth about my pregnancy" book lol
