- When you go to get your pregnancy panel bloodwork done, leave your toddler at home. Filling a cup with pee is a ridiculous enough process. Having a toddler with Mickey and Minnie figurines does not make it any easier. Perhaps more entertaining. But not easier.
- Pickles and cream cheese, while generally delicious when paired with lunch meat wrapped around them are also quite tasty sans meat. And even more delicious when you dip tiny dills right into the cream cheese dish.
- Stuffed sinuses+pregnancy+toothpaste= puke in sink.
- Nail polish, shoes, fashion jewelry and make-up are all things that will fit no matter how many preggo pounds you pack on. But of course, you’re never fully dressed without a smile.
- The plump and perkies are just plumps on the second pregnancy. Perky is a thing of the past.
- Nobody tells you that as soon as your pouch pooches, muffin top miraculously comes with it. But, of note, it goes away once the babe comes out of your body.
- People still say the weirdest things. Whether it’s your first or fifth child, there are some people who have no filter. Perfect the smile and nod. It just makes life easier.
- Being tired can actually hurt. Your face. Your head. Your entire body. I forgot that. Shoot.
- When you feel hunger, you are actually past the point that you should have eaten. When you think you are almost full, you are actually past the point of no return. Nausea will likely ensue in either scenario.
- Additionally, when you think you need to pee … GO PEE. One good sneeze and you’ll wish you would have gone when you had the chance.
- Even though Barrett was 100% planned, I have so much more anticipation than I did with my first pregnancy. This is not to say that everyone feels this way. I think it’s because I know how much we love Barrett. How everything turned out just perfect. How we can’t imagine our lives without him. Just can’t wait to meet little Grin.
