Bring on the Pregnancy Symptoms...

Where should we begin. Well, lets start with the Nausea, no not the vomiting just the constant feeling of needing to vomit. The kind you get where you wish you would just barf to get that feeling out of your system. Now I know it could be worse, my sister has been throwing up almost her entire pregnancy but she did admit that after wards she felt better. So this entire day feeling of needing to throw up but not being able to... yeah it stinks.

Second, let's discuss the acne. The horrible pimples, that I was lucky enough to occasionally evade while I was a teenager. Yep now I officially have joined the acne club. Now I know I shouldn't be complaining but does anything make you feel uglier than pimples, not only on your face.... NO that would just be too easy. Nope now I not only have acne on my face but under my chin, behind my ears, on my chest. In case my breasts were not going through enough changes, now I have pimples on them... yay!!

Next, and because these next few are all pretty similar. We welcome dizziness, headaches and faintness. Oh yeah those all sound like cute little dwarfs but no unfortunately they are all common pregnancy symptoms that have decided to hit me the past couple of weeks.

Now since I'm not trying to complain (well a little, but mostly trying to share) I thought I would share some symptoms I haven't had yet!!

My breasts although very, very tender have not grown any bigger. Which so far has been a blessing. I do NOT want my breasts to get bigger.... at all. My bras take up enough room in my dresser already (not because of quantity either). They are expensive when I have to buy new ones, not to mention hard to find, size AND comfort are important.

So that's pretty much my symptoms so far. My stomach hasn't grown any, even though starting out with a belly already now I have an excuse. Which is nice, now when one of my kids (from my nanny jobs) asks if there is a baby in my belly I can positively say YES!!! I'm still very very excited to be pregnant and would take any of these symptoms plus more to have this chance!!!

  1. I'm happy I found your blog! Yay I love having blog friends!! Especially PREGNANT blog friends!!
    I feel bad for you about the acne... eeek mine got HORRIBLE, too! But I promise it will clear up by your 2nd trimester! And the faintness will go away, too! It has to do with your blood pressure, that's what I read anyway. Goodness I'm so excited that you're pregnant!!!
