What I don't understand about being pg...

Sheas · October 2010

Why do we have to leak from every single hole in our bodies just to "prepare for baby"?

My mouth is always filled with saliva.

My eyes are always burning/watery.

I feel like my ears are producing more wax than ever.

My nips leak like they are an oozing volcano getting ready to erupt.

Let's not even talk about how many panty liners I use in a day.

And to think... it is only going to happen more and more once we progress farther into being pregnant.

I was thinking the exact same thing yesterday. I sneeze about 20 million times a day. And every time I get out of bed it feels like I have peed myself, even though I didn't.

Isn't it the strangest thing? I mean, I guess I understand the pantiliner thing... preparing for baby... where the baby comes out. OK I can deal with that. But blowing my nose, the earwax, what the hell?!

I feel the saaame way! I've switched from contacts to glasses because my eyes get so watery, and every time I laugh or cough I feel like I'm peeing my pants..I can't wait to have the baby, and NOT be pregnant anymore! But I'm sure it'll totally be worth it

I thougth the earwax thing was my imagination...I'm glad i'm not the only one. The sneezing/nose blowing could totally stop. I wouldn't miss it.

Isn't the earwax thing weird!! I also feel like I'm producing so much snot/mucous and it actually makes me gag sometimes if I can't blow it out in time!
