Ive hit that wall, you know, the "I'm sick of this, I'm tired, I'm uncomfortable, I cant sleep!"
sure I look happy in my photo, but it took so much work. Nights are long and my lower back is killing me. I always thought pregnant woman were such complainers. Now I know how difficult it is. my back pain LITERALLY keeps me awake at night..even when my eyes feel like bricks.
Anywho, Ive gained about 40 lbs already! which is 10 over the expected amount. This first pregnancy has taught me alot on what not to do when youre pregnant!
1. dont excuse yourself from exercise
2. go to ALL prenatal appointments just incase you might find out that youre anemic and this adds to your weight gain, because of lack of energy!
3. do invest in healthier foods... sacrifice something else (if finances keeps you from eating great) to have a nutritious diet
4. dont tell your husband anything ridiculous like, "i cant get backrubs because it might trigger labor." you neeeeed back rubs.
5. its ok to wake up your husband 3x in one night if youre going stir crazy because you cant sleep. Husbands are great comforters.
