I hope it’s ok that your comment made me laugh out loud. I can relate to the rosacea that attacked the side of my nose. Definitely no glow yet but I still do have hope! So glad to hear about your sex drive too! It’s such an awful thing and it’s still non-existent.

As you’ve probably figured out by now, there is a lot of things people/books/doctors will tell you that just doesn’t happen…The “glow” didn’t happen for me either. That rosy red look, looked like a mild case of rosacea. And my energy increased for about 5 weeks, before plummeting back to zero. In that 5 weeks, I felt GREAT, though. Sadly it was short lived. I hope it’s longer for you. As for the sex drive, I lost mine as soon as I found out I was pregnant. But when I want it, I want it NOW. lol. It just very rare.

HA HA HA! Jane you made me laugh when you said: Worrying about one penis (if it’s a boy) or everyone else’s penis (if it’s a girl).

So true… so true.

Ugh, I know! I don't know how women do this 5 or 6 times. Especially twins. This is way worse than last time. Just wait, you'll feel little kicks and dancing and your whole outlook will change. That's the redeeming quality of pregnancy. Crysi’s last blog post..

LOL!! I agree so much about all of this, though I am still in the hellish first triemster. I never had acne this bad as a teenager and I look young as one so I get all kinds of comments. I got so sick of people saying I looked 6-7 months pregnant that my husband had a t-shirt made for me that says “My baby is the size of a peanut, what you see is gas, still wanna touch my belly?” I wear it all the time and get some great looks but people have been leaving my tummy alone!

As to the moving into the bathroom comment, already done it. I started bleeding pretty bad a few days after my BFP and was put on bedrest for 2 weeks for threatened miscarriage, from 4weeks 3 days till 5 weeks 6 days when the bleeding stopped. As soon as I stopped bleeding I started puking. I have one of those inflatable camping pads, a spare pillow and a big warm blanket on my bathroom floor. I spend about half the night and most of the morning in there. Pretty much the only time I’m not throwing up is when I am in class (full time college student).

I hate the ‘morning sickness’ but am also kinda greatful everytime it pops up since I know baby is still where he/she should be.
