Being a new mommy is gross.

Being pregnant as a first time mommy is….
…Interesting
…Amazing (most of the time)
…Difficult (once in awhile)
…and Disgusting….*sigh*

Every mommy I have talked to has spoken about pregnancy as this beautiful life changing thing. Don’t get me wrong, it’s beautiful and life changing. I am totally blessed to be given this duty to bring a human being into this world. Trust me, the husband and I were trying to get pregnant for 6 months, but no one told me it was going to be disgusting! Why did you guys forget to mention that, huh?!

My God, the things a pregnant body produces and does! It’s like a train wreck. It’s horrendous, but at the same time so damn interesting one can’t look away.

You got weird shaped boobs, discharge, yeast infections, weird boils popping out of no where, dark spots, eczema, dark armpits, hair growing in new and odd places, the bad case of the sweats, veins popping up in random places, and Graves Disease (oh wait, thats my own thing).

I am almost at my half way mark (19 weeks tomorrow. YAY!) I can only imagine what other gross things have in store. Oh man, child birth is going to MESSEY! I can’t wait!
