Pregnancy glow is a myth!!

[Yo_Yo]

I'm shattered all the time! Ds isn't sleeping at night and doesn't nap during the day either!

By 7pm every night I'm counting down to bedtime.

Anyone else not feeling the glow?

Haha! I feel exhausted and without the mental "glow" I've heard of, but I do get the true physiological pregnancy glow - clear, bright skin and blushing cheeks. I look good, but I feel like going back to bed. I looked like crap when pregnant with my 3 sons, just oily skin & tons of acne. What a sucky glow.

People keep telling me I look really well but boy do I not feel it! second trimester being wonderful was a total lie for me. I mean it was better than the first by a long way but still pretty rough! Still not feeling a glow in the 3rd either. Although excitement has set in now I'm on the home strech which is making me feel a bit more shiny!

xdxxtx-I'd just love some energy! And I know what you mean about the mental glow being missing-I definitely have a case of the baby brain right now! I keep going out of a room and forgetting what I was doing next. These middle month are meant to be the nicest, so fingers crossed for us


Sonny-yay for being in the home stretch! The last 10 weeks start to fly by. Can't wait to be on that countdown!

Yeeeeep totally not feeling the glow. I feel fatter, duller, slower, dumber, just about everything besides glowing haha

Yup over here too. I feel fat, I'm permanently shattered, I've got spots on my chin chest and back and have permanent headaches and runny nose. I feel horrific! Glow! Yeah right! Lol
