The wonderful, the good, the bad and the ugle

I decided I would do a post on the good and the bad of pregnancy that I have experienced in these 11 weeks. Granted, I've got quite a ways to go in this journey...but I've experienced quite alot in these short few months. Should I start with the bad or the good first? I think I'll start with the bad, because I want to save the BEST for last ;-)

BAD:

1. Nausea--there is nothing like pregnancy nausea.

2. Heartburn/indigestion/upset stomache-- Wait...I'm starting to sound like a commercial for pepto bismol.

3. Peeing every 30 minutes-- ANNOYING

4. Cramps--these are supposedly only bad during the first trimester...but they are worrisome because you think about the possibility of a miscarriage.

5. Emotions--up, down, left, right, everywhere in one day.

6. Throwing up on the carpet bc I couldn't make it to the bathroom-- ok, that was me. Not fun. My poor husband had to clean it up. Yuck!

7. Sensitivity to smell...

Ok, let's get to the good.

GOOD:

1. Knowing a precious baby is developing in the womb.

2. Emotions--Can also be a good thing. I'm more in touch with other peoples' feelings, their pain, happiness, etc. I cry when someone is hurting and am really excited for people with good news.

3. Watching the changes of my body :-)

4. SEEING my precious baby through ultrasounds. The best part!

5. Going through everything with a loving, sweet mate. My husband is amazing.

6. Growing closer to my hubby through this.

7. Ok, I can't lie. I can get away with doing alot less now, because my husband is more than willing to do it for me. Especially if I'm sick.

8. Food--everything is just so much tastier now that I'm pregnant.

9. Talking about baby stuff for a reason!

10. Planning for a baby!!

Ok...I gotta go. Hubby and I need to make dinner :-)
