5 Things I Forgot Came With Being Pregnant – and wish didn’t.

1. As stupid as this may seem. I forgot about the uncontrollable weight gain. I had managed to get my weight under control going into this pregnancy – but the ‘loss of control’ is making me want to become a control freak in other areas. Yesterday I caught myself lining up my shampoos and body washes in my shower, by height. I also may have put my underwear into a ‘rainbow’ like order.

2. The desire to wear your husband’s pajamas everywhere, because you feel fat in everything else.

3. (The loss of) The awesome instant loss of 5 lbs of water retention after each period that let me justify that my salt intake wasn’t abnormally high.

4. Trying to have sex without thinking about the fact that a child is somewhat ‘technically’ in the room each time you look down and see your belly.

5. Babies can kick you in the butt, from the inside ,making you fart at inconvenient times. For instance greeting your friend’s boyfriend for a ‘get to know him’ dinner party for the first time…. “Hi Luke!” ..sssQEEK.
