Alright ladies what are some of the things no one told you about being pregnant?
For some reason when people told me oh when you are pregnant your hair grows so fast that it would be exlusive to my head!!! No one told me that the growth speed of my leg hair would also increase or that I would develop hair in new places. I am not a hairy person at all but now I have stomach hair?! What is up with that!
Oh and the constipation!!!
