Happy V-Day walker!
I found this article to share with you girls. Especially those who have had it rough. 25 Ways to Love Being Pregnant https://www.fitpregnancy.com/pregnancy/health/accentuate-positive?page=1
My favorites are:
1. Take advantage of your status.
Never again will more people be so willing to help you. Accept that bus seat. Say yes to offers to carry your packages. Rather than feel guilty, resolve to pass the favors on to another pregnant woman later.
6. Be queen for a day (for nine months).
Trash your to-do lists. Nap without guilt. Go to a day spa. Take extra showers. Take your shoes off and put your feet up. Sleep late (but do get up and dressed so you feel part of the world). Buy a body pillow for your last trimester. If meals or housework are too much, hire help or call on a friend.
18. Act naughty.
Paint your belly. Get a T-shirt that answers the usual questions gender, due date, I feel ___. Tell rude questioners that youre carrying sextuplets and give them an address for donations.
24. Laugh.
Pregnancy opens women to embarrassing-at-the-moment-but-hilarious-later situations. Concentrate on the funny side. Laugh when mother brain makes you put your keys in the refrigerator and garlic in your purse.
25. If all else fails, blame the hormones.
Sometimes, no matter what you try, everything seems wrong, changes overwhelm, and you just cant cope. Its all normal indulge yourself. Cry. Rage. Then send your partner out for ice cream while you enjoy a warm bath surrounded by candles.
