Alright ladies I'm 10+4 and am ready for all the real prego warnings. What are the things that happen to your body and emotions that no one Will talk about? Good? Bad?

I'm 12 weeks now and just saw my little one last friday, it was the most wonderful feeling ever! :) Some little human being moving inside of me! It makes the back pains, crankyness, sore boobs and whatever sooo worth it! :) And yeah people become nicer when they know your pregnant! And  my boyfriend never lets me carry anything heavy!

Since everyone covered the bad, I'll give a few examples of the good :) your hair gets thicker and shinier,  your nails are stronger, you look super cute waddling around with a belly poking out, and people tend to be nicer on general :)

I think they pretty much covered it! Lol whoever said pregnancy is easy or fabulous has prob never been pregnant, seems like everything is a struggle! But we're women we're strong and we make it thru! Lol

Don't forget about the itchy vagina because your pH changes. Extra discharge. I been dealing with it since my 2nd trimester. Shortness of breath and heart racing. Fingers swelling.

Extra ear wax, hemorrhoids, carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, pelvic rest (no orgasms or sex), pelvic girdle pain, lack of bladder control, waking up every three hours, heating when you stand after sitting or lying down, lack of patience, zits, acid reflux...its a wonderful experience...toot toot.

What I wish I knew:
In the beginning I was all down for sex. Then every time we would I would need to pee (even if I just went before foreplay) it was so uncomfortable that I just gave up on trying. Now it doesn't bug me and he's not interested. Lol
Late 2nd trimester early 3rd: pooping was a struggle, now I poop 3/4 times a day soupy poop.
The BACK PAIN is crippling, and laziness of eff it all takes over.
and you'll grow to hate even the kindest of gestures from your significant other and friends, everyone starts to bug the crap out of you whether they mean well or not.

Seriously crippling back pain that comes and goes. Feeling like you're gonna pass out cause you get anemia out of no where. GUILT over everything you do wrong,  or don't do. Like not knowing Spanish so you can't teach your baby Spanish.
