Day 3: The Good, The Bad, and the Real Ugly

Countdown to Emerson's Arrival: Day 3

Some things I will miss about this pregnancy:
  • Feeling her movements- it is such an amazing thing! It never gets old-ever!
  • Eating gluten when I shouldn't be
  • Rocky changing the cat litter
  • Sleeping.
Some things I will never miss about being pregnant:
  • Having to pee all the time
  • Having a HUMONGOUS tummy that everyone in the world stares at
  • The comments- "wow- are you due yesterday?" "How many babies are in there?" etc.
  • Not being able to bend over to pick things up
  • Not being able to shave my legs very well
  • Hormones. Hormones. Hormones.
  • Pregnancy mask that keeps getting worse- all over my face
  • Stretch marks that keep multiplying
  • Sleeping on my side
  • Walking slow while worrying that I might pee in my pants
  • Water retention
  • Not being able to have a martini
  • Not being able to hold Jacob on my lap
  • Not having enough shirts long enough to cover my belly
  • Heartburn
...But at the end of the day, it is all worth it to have a beautiful, healthy, happy baby...and plus, this IS the easy part...Hello?! I will remember that in a few short days.
