Sometimes I get sad when I see my new stretch marks.
But then I remember that some women out there have infertility problems and would give ANYTHING to have a hard pregnancy and get all the stretch marks.
Ladies, youโre my daily reminder to be thankful for my โbadโ days.
I always wanted to be @HilaryDuff growing up ... and now weโre both pregs during a pandemic.
Not what I imagined, but Iโll take it ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฅฐ
Donโt get me wrong ... I know itโll all be worth it & Iโm so excited to meet my little man!
I just wish I was more mentally prepared for pregnancy.
What you think pregnancy is: You think โya, Iโll gain a few pounds and just have a cute round bellyโ
Reality of pregnancy: Well, Iโve gained 55lbs with two months left to go. Stretch marks are popping up. And my feet look like sausages.
Oh, and you can experience PPD before youโve even had your baby ... and be put on medication for it.
I wish people would normalize even the โbadโ parts of pregnancy for realistic expectations. Itโs not always a โglowingโ experience.
Thanks for listening to my rant ๐
