Adventures of Pregnanthood

Being pregnant is a miraculous thing, it's so amazing and beautiful! You always hear the wonderful stories women tell about being pregnant, but no woman can ever be fully prepared for what pregnancy brings. Let me tell you, it's not always easy and sometimes it's just downright weird!

Here are a few of my interesting experiences so far. The true, untold stories of pregnancy...

I now can NOT stand the smell of my favorite purse. Every time I reach in to grab my keys or wallet I have to hold my breath, or I'll gag. I've made the Hub and about 20 other people smell it to see if they can smell what I do, but nope, it's just me.

A restful nights sleep is already a thing of the past for me. No, it's not the peeing 3 times a night or repositioning my belly that bothers me. It is my insane, scary, gruesome, intense dreams! Whether it's zombies eating me, ghosts terrifying me or car crashes killing me, they are always so crazy!

Oranges! Big ones, little ones, juicy ones... they're all my favorite! Every once in a while I'll have only 1 orange a day but on a typical pregnant day, I must eat up to 4 oranges to keep me satisfied. The other night, I woke up at 11:30pm, got out of bed and had to go eat an orange. It's serious.

Food is delicious, I have no problem eating it, but if I smell it cooking I am disgusted and have to leave the room. In order to make dinner, I have to breath only through my mouth so I can't smell anything and every window and door must be open. Such a pain in the butt!

And that's just a few!
Regardless of all the weird and crazy things I may have to go through during this pregnancy, I know it is all so worth it!

♥ Always,
The Pregnant One
