At this rate, I'll be bald in a week!
So, you know how they say you lose your hair after you have a baby?
Totally true.
It has been steadily falling out for the last few weeks, but this morning in the shower, I noticed quite a large amount coming off in my hands as I washed my hair. UGH. Good thing I have a pretty thick head of hair... For all of you who are KTFU, beware. Stock up on the Drano now. LOL
Also, yes, I'm procrastinating packing. I kind of need to get on that since M is napping...
Re: At this rate, I'll be bald in a week!
so maybe when i'm preg, my hair will be more fulll.. and afterwards i'll def be bald. awesome.
another reason to get preg.
i think it would be in the best interest of all women everywhere to know about these things..
you, karebear, jennlin, picks, austin, johlise, and anyone else who is a mom should probably compile a list.
Those dark nipples/areolas? They're Oreolas. Haha.

This. I am actually looking forward to my hair falling out by the end of my pregnancy it was an unruly thick mess. I couldn't do anything with it.
Something I didn't know.... Cheese burger crotch. I couldn't believe how much my lady parts swelled! It hurt so bad too. I didn't realize it until after it went down afterwards. Holy cow!
Oh and bloody noses... Towards the end if I threw up I also wet myself. All the tmi stuff no one tells you.

LB has got a pretty good list...some added ones:
trouble breathing, trouble taking deep breaths
feeling really really hungry, but only being able to fit in a few small bites of food
STRETCH MARKS!
hair, everywhere. i have a hairy chest now
and belly, and my arm hairs are also super long now.
i'll echo exhaustion again...because i NEVER knew it would be this bad...growing a human is hard work!
but are we going to only list bad things? because the good things are great too:
your hair/nails grows long and thick
random strangers smile at you (is this a good or a bad thing?)
people always offer to help you do anything, even if it's grabbing something from across the room
you have an excuse for anything....crying, not wanting to go out, being lazy....
feeling/watching the baby move is just so awe-inspiring
having a BABY!

jumped ship to the new and improved nest. back to TB for baby boards.
i told my friends that i was "seeing a doctor", "have been extremely tired", "dr has drawn my blood and has been running tests", "dr recommend i take certain vitamins", "dr recommend i restrict my diet"....etc etc etc....all true statements. my friends were actually starting to worry about me...haha. i felt bad, but i did not once lie to them. but because they were starting to worry, they did all take care of me in the beginning, too
as for the body hair..it's really light, but it's there! i've had it since...maybe 15ish weeks..and h finally noticed it a few weeks ago (i'm 31.5 weeks right now).....he had his head/face on my belly, listening for baby...then he lifted his hand and started playing with the hair!!!!! i was like WTF!!!!! stop!!!
stretch marks came at about 18 wks maybe...i'm not sure. i can't them unless i look at it in the mirror haha. (that should be another negative..i can't see my girly bits!) . they say that you can tell if you're going to get stretch marks by looking at your mom...they're more genetic than anything.
