I’ve seen my body change so much in the past 4 months and I’m really trying to embrace these c u r v e s. This pregnancy is difficult, straining, exciting, rewarding... it’s so many emotions and feelings rolled into one. . It’s hard for me to do my makeup in the mirror most mornings because I just look different. My jaw line is disappearing, my skin is breaking out, and I feel I just don’t look the same. . My body has grown in all the places imaginable, my clothes don’t fit, I’m constantly out of breath and feeling exhausted to the point where I feel sick. I haven’t worked out in 2.5 months, I always have food in my mouth to avoid the hunger pains, and I cannot consume enough water (therefore having to pee every 15 minutes). And please don’t get me started on the Restless Leg Syndrome, especially in the evening. . I’m not one of those people who enjoys pregnancy. I complain non-stop to Chris, I go to bed at 830pm only to toss and turn and switch from one shoulder to the other shoulder once that one goes numb and tingly. I always feel full and heavy, the headaches are way too frequent, and the acid reflux is an ongoing battle. . BUT... . Is it all worth it? Yes. . Am I grateful? Absolutely. . Am I looking forward to meeting baby girl? Cannot wait. . Am I counting down the days until I can have a glass of wine (or 4) and sleep on my stomach again? Rhetorical question.
