So I normally blog about my family with cute pictures, but not this time. This time I need to talk about me. This pregnancy has been so hard. I can't say that I remember my first pregnancy that well but I do think this one is different...and harder. I was horribly sick for the first couple months, then that subsided but the occasional nausea has stuck around. Every few days I wake up sick for an hour and then it goes away. YUCK! My back is like that of an 80 yr old. I have been to the chiropractor countless times and it is still not better. My body is weak. YUCK!! My emotions are crazy. I cry at random times, I am moody, tired, without patience for my 2 year old, and I move as slow as a turtle. And the cherry on the top is that I am just now 6 months which means I have 16 weeks left to go. YUCK!!!! I am super thankful to be carrying this sweet boy and ecstatic to hold him for the first time. I just have to get there. I am wading through the yuckiness of pregnancy and praying to make it without permanent damage to my husband and child. Please tell me this is normal!!

You are so normal! People are big fat liars that say you forget how terrible pregnancy is. If that were true, I would be on to number 3! It will get better. Just remember that it will come to an end and then you will have a sweet new baby!
Oh Becca, I want to give you a big hug, and I will the next time I see you! Hang in there girl, your precious baby boy will be so worth it!
Amen Holly...I will never forget the pain of birth or the total discomfort in pregnancy or the pains I had that landed me in bedrest...just hang in, ask for help, and give yourself a break!
ohhh, I feel so sad for you. I feel your pain. :(
Girl...you hit the nail on the head! Pregnancy is HARD! I think it gets harder each time. Just give yourself some grace and go get a big ol' Dr. Pepper from Sonic and put your feet up and watch trashy talk shows one day. Maury is enough to make anyone feel like their life is not that bad. At least you know who your baby daddy is!
Becca, you are SO normal. I felt the same way with my second one as well! It didn't help that I was also in a town where I knew NO one and I my stomach felt and looked like I had a small VW Bug in it either!
It WILL get better eventually girl! Just hang in there! Blog about yourself as often as you need to, no one is going to think any less of you when you do!
Continue to let us know when you need the encouragement!
God Bless you friend!
Hi Becca! I'm so glad to have found your blog (through Becky). And I feel your pain, sista! I'm sorry to hear your pregnancy has been hard--maybe that just means we'll appreciate our newborn babies all the more. :) Looking forward to keeping up with you and your cute family through the blog.
