I'm Pregnant!

Well Duh... Right? Let me explain...

Even though this is my second pregnancy, I feel pregnant for the first time. The whole time I carried MoMo, I felt great. I never had morning sickness and I never threw up. As a matter of fact, nothing strange happened or changed from what I had been used to prior to getting pregnant. Towards the last maybe four weeks, yes I'll agree, I moved very slow, I got really dark(you could literally use white chalk on my neck), I gained a lot of weight even though a lot of people thought I only gained three pounds(yeah right!), my face was swollen(I hated taking pictures), so were my feet(none of my shoes fit), and my fingers(I stopped wearing my wedding ring pretty early). Besides physical changes, I felt really good.

However, with this pregnancy, my my has it been a different story. Thankfully, I didn't have any morning sickness or throwing up either with this pregnancy. But, for the first three months in the evenings, I was always very irritable and sometimes nauseous. I got very tired and some evenings hubby really had to tip toe around me(poor baby, lol). In the morning though, my energy was up full force and I was back kicking. That feeling like I said lasted for only about three months and I'm glad it passed. As the weeks have progressed, I have a lot more tired days. I still feel great but life just moves in extra slow motion. I don't want to do anything and I just want to lay around and be pampered. Being the busy bee that I am though, I still get everything I need done around the house and on my to-do checklist regardless of how long it takes because I just can't help it! Lol. Funny thing is that, this time around the physical changes compared to the last pregnancy are totally flipped. My skin tone hasn't changed much, my feet are not swollen, my face...ehh(getting there but not all the way), my wedding ring still fits and wait for it... this is the big one... I haven't gained a lot of weight at all! For weeks, I was so scared to find out how much I weighed because I just knew I was huge(I mean I feel HUGE). I finally weighed myself about a week ago and I couldn't believe the number I was looking at. I was too happy!!!

Now you know why I haven't had up a post in a while. I think about it, but I just don't want to! Lol. I do thank God for my strength though. It really blows my mind sometimes how far I push myself. #blessed

Two weekends ago at a wedding.
