I am 17 weeks and 1 day and wow! how this pregnancy been a wild ride. I am slowly starting to feel better which means I am getting more active. In January we will be having our 20-week anatomy and gender scan so I cant wait for that!
Some things I wish people told me about pregnancy.
- The Snot….oh my goodness…the snot…I wake up every morning have to blow my nose and I feel like I am in a Mucinex commercial.
- Snoring….The Snot and Snoring come hand in hand….my midwife said it’s due to pregnancy hormones causing your sinuses to swell.
- Peeing every 5 seconds…I always thought the peeing was due to the size of the baby….nope…it starts with pregnancy hormones. I am only 17 weeks, barely showing and I am constantly peeing! To the point I thought I had a bladder infection….nope….just the hormones.
- Changes to Hair…I have officially given up on trying to keep up with body hair……It feels like as soon as I shave…BOOM…Chewbacca.
- Food Aversion….things you once loved…be willing to say goodbye to because now you hate it and it makes you throw up…
On a more positive note, now that I am feeling better I am announcing an upcoming Baby Guide!
Be on the lookout for this guide to go live!
