I'm beginning to realize that the pregnancy glow is the only physical benefit of being pregnant. Well, that and the baby. Even the glow isn't a full benefit because it's caused by secreting oils that lead to acne. Wonderful. I'm constantly bloated from intestinal discomfort and I'm just now getting to life outside nausea (thank you Ondansetron!). I work full days Wednesday through Friday, and I find it is all I can do to stay awake. I'm literally nodding off at my desk. One of the worst things of all is that my breasts are so sore! I thought that was over after puberty, but now it's back with a vengeance.
Now after all of my complaining, I have to sing pregnancy's praises. First of all, soon I get to wear stretchy pants!!!!!! I hate the confinement of jeans, so I can't wait to have any excuse to buy some stretchy band jeans! I will love them forever! Also, I get to have a baby in my arms in 7 months, one week, and four days! I can't tell you how darn excited I am to kiss his/her cheeks raw! Finally, the best thing about being pregnant is that I have an excuse not to eat or do anything I don't want to! "Hey Nicole, can you come over tonight and babysit?" "Sorry, I'm feeling so nauseous and sick right now." I love this fetus for that reason! It's already gotten me out of so many unwanted events and dishes! Bless its heart! For that, I will also kiss his/her cheeks raw!
