pregnancy

I had your typical pregnancy. No odd cravings and no issues they needed to monitor. It was a little lonely, Chris left for New York in July and I was due in December. I had lots of family for support. The unfortunate thing is that there are too many families that this is the norm of their life. having such an important time and your significant other is not here with you to experience it. As awful as this sounds it didn't help that I did not LIKE being pregnant. I loved my baby and it was amazing to feel him move all around but the whole thing was just uncomfortable, odd pains all the time, sleepless, and long. It didn't help that I gained 50lbs, yes that's right 50lbs. I was a cow by then, I mean fat. Sometimes I feel bad saying it but really it's just the way it is. My mom would tell me how she LOVED being pregnant and i cannot understand how. Not even now and it's been a couple of years. I realize that I am not alone in my dislike for the whole process but love the end result.
