Lets talk about babies...

Majority of the people I've been around for the past few weeks all they want to talk about is pregnancy. Most want more kids and/or LOVED being pregnant and then there's me. I love my little baby diva more than life... most days. 

But I'm not going to sugar coat any of my pregnancy, labor, and the several months healing post pardum(sp?)... It was the worst experience I have ever been through! I wouldn't take it back but I don't want to go through that again!! If there is a surprise pregnancy in the future  I don't know how I will feel about it but as of right now it's definitely not in my future.

I recently watched the movie "what to expect when your expecting" and I loved it!!! I loved seeing all the different aspects of pregnancy, labor, adopting, etc. I loved that it wasn't a picture perfect one view point type of movie like the rest of them because every story is different!

My favorite by far was Elizabeth Banks character. I related to her in every way! Every morsel of my being hurt or was uncomfortable from month 3-10! The first 2 months I could eat or drink whatever I wanted and it was awesome! I never felt that glow or awesomeness. Everything hurt and I mean everything!! My body was so messed up I couldn't make a fist... or even hold a pen! My teeth were so sensitive I had to get 7 cavities that I didn't have before filled while prego! I sweat out of every crevice! From my boobs down to my feet itched constantly from the swelling. And it felt like fire balls were living in my chest.

Around the 3 month mark I could hardly eat or drink anything! And what I did eat or drink I threw up. I only gained 11lbs up until 27weeks prego. 

If I wouldn't have drank so much pop (the only thing I could keep down) during the last 6 months of my pregnancy I know that I wouldn't have gained much weight but I, stupidly, thought empty calories are better than starving my baby. That led me to gain 57lbs altogether. 

And labor... ugh 55 hours of pain, about 20 of it was without any drugs and I could still feel most of it after drugs... Then I had a C-section and wasn't suppose to bend, drive, or do anything strenuous for the first 4-6wks afterwards was extremely hard. All I wanted to do was clean and have my body and life back to normal just now with a baby.

A couple people who I have shared my experiences with think I'm just one of those girls who exaggerate but no, I'm serious it was awful! 

TMI- pooping the first couple of times after my C-section was probably the 2nd worst pain I have had to endure aside from labor of course.
