What I am dealing with now...

There are probably a handful of people that know I am pregnant. And I always find joy (yes, there are times when you actually feel joy) in talking about it. They always ask, "how you are feeling?" I always laugh when I am replying because it's weird, annoying, scary, did I mention weird!?

The first thing is your boobs hurt. And I don't mean they are a little sore...they hurt. "You may be a pregnant woman if..." when removing our bra makes you want to bite on some barbed wire! They hurt. I am sure it's different for everyone - but they hurt.

Secondly, peeing is interesting. I don't pee all that much. I pee when I get up, get home from work, and before I go to bed. I don't drink a lot. But I did notice that I pee all the time. I look at water and I have to pee. How does something the size of a poppy seed or the size of a pumpkin seed can make you pee 3 times more a day, is beyond me!

Morning sickness - well that is just a peach isn't it. You know those mothers who love morning sickness because it's part of being pregnant and the wonderful miracle growing inside of them. They can kiss it. It's not fun! There is nothing fun about it. Who wants to sleep like a baby and wake up and feel like they were on the same spinning roller coaster all day long?! I don't know. I don't love that feeling. It's not a FUN feeling. I would much rather sleep like a baby, wake up and feel fine.

Dizziness. Ugh - this isn't fun either. No one likes to be dizzy, unless you are a kid.

Sleepiness. This is the worst for me. I am tired all the time. I will be sitting at work and it will just hit me! Like I slammed into a brick wall at 100 mph. I sleep - which is a nice change - but I am tired all the time.

I know it sounds like I complain a lot - lol - I do....but it's just change! While I am left with dealing with a growing child - and the changes my body is growing though, others involved are living their life - as if it never happened. That is probably the hardest thing to deal with.
