while watching my new favorite show.. Bethenny Getting Married.. it hit me when someone said she looked cute.. and she was like.. “no.. I have hit the pregnant stage.. I am not cute anymore.. I am bloated and pregnant!!” I feel like I am there.. it started last week.. the water retention.. oy veh.. I drink and drink and drink and if I stop for one second.. the ankles start to swell.. my face starts to puff.. and I have lines all over my body from whatever piece of clothing I was wearing..
I am pretty sure I cried getting ready in the hotel this night..
the face is the worst to me.. I remember being in Vegas at 34 weeks with Olive.. and that desert sun and lack of water.. hello $8.00 bottles.. made me a giant marshmallow.. I am thankful however that I am not pregnant in the summer again.. looking back at summer photos.. I was bigger then than when I actually popped her out.. ( I Iove my beaches)..
it didnt help I had my hot sister in law looking better then ever ;)
I am on week 8 of this gestational diet and if I have to see another english muffin covered in peanut butter.. I may scream! I remember after Olive was born I literally threw anything in the garbage that resembled diabetes.. all the info and books and charts filled with information went straight into the trash can.. and I drank orange juice the ENTIRE hospital visit.. the entire!!
I told myself I would try to embrace pregnancy this time around.. and not be so hard on myself.. but its hard when your nurse tells you at your checkup..”I guess you had a great thanksgiving!” :0 I usually appreciate the honest approach.. but this time around.. I am ready to pop out this love child and go back to eating fruit.. I am craving fruit so bad.. strawberries.. melon.. and mimosas!
summer will be very exciting for me!
