the truth....

...about pregnancy.

everything you wanted to know but no one will tell you. OR everything I want to complain about, and am making you read because you read my blog (and hope you are amused by).

1) you will feel like a huge cow. it's inevitable. don't worry, eventually you will get a big enough bump to stick out so people know you are not just fat, but actually pregnant
2) you will feel sick. you know when you are first coming down with something, and you are tired and just off? welcome to 9 months of that feeling.
3) yes, EVERYONE will want to touch your belly. sometimes it's nice, sometimes it's really annoying.
4) morning sickness is: a) not just in the morning, b) not just in the first trimester
5) your digestion rate goes from 60mph to 5mph, so you will be reliving every meal for several hours
6) you will be grumpy. ask for forgiveness from your spouse now.
7) you will find that 6:30pm is not too early to go to bed.
8) sometimes the best part of your day is putting on your pajamans
9) be prepared for EVERYONE to ask you if you know the sex, if you want to know the sex, and if you have names. I'm not just talking about family and friend's either.
10) that whole peeing every 10 mintues thing does not start at the third timester, no no, it's almost immediate. and at the same time you will be thirsty all the time
11) your temperature regulation will be terrible. wear layers.
12) you will want to tell everyone about all the sucky things about pregnancy, but really it's quite a miracle
