JFF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

What are the good, bad, and ugly things pregnancy has physically done (weight aside) to you so far?

Good: My boobs, butt and hair have gotten gloriously fuller!!
Bad: GREY HAIRS....everywhere!! Not sure if this is from the pregnancy, but they're sprouting up and I've never seen them this rampant before :/
Ugly: I'm so tired it's already been extremely hard for me to shave anything #hibernationmode. I also have the skin of a teenager with all this acne.

Re: JFF: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

  • Good:I've been told that my skin is glowing.
    Bad: I have outgrown all of my bras. This wouldn't be such a bad thing if I could simply walk into a store and buy new ones. Online shopping it is!
    Ugly: My hair gets really greasy if I go a day without washing it (and this happens more than I would care to admit!).

  • @flashy I tried to steer it away from the symptoms thread by having a more light/fun tone but I get what you're saying. If others feel that way I can delete the thread and send it back to internetland.

  • Good: apparently I look "glowy"? I think that's just a nice thing people say though because I don't see it.
    Bad: Skin is dry and itchy but I think that's from the dryness of the air now, mostly.
    Ugly: Stupid acne. Oh, and on my back, too. Sexxxay.

  • Good: My sex drive has skyrocketed... I know this isn't an outward "physical" change but so far it seems to be the only good change.

    Bad: The bloat is out of control.  To the point most of my work pants won't button comfortably so I am rocking the rubberband.

    Ugly: Acne... so.much.acne.

  • The Good: My boobs are fan-freaking-tastic!!!!
    The Bad: My all day nausea is ridiculous, I'm so over it.
    The Ugly: I thought I had a sassy attitude before, but now it's ridiculous. It's slowly destroying my relatonship! Go away, excessive hormones!

    I'm having the greasy hair problem too! It sucks because I could usually get away with not shampooing every day but now I look gross.

    Ladies. Maybe we should start a Greasy Hair Club! I am in!

    Good: my boobs look awesome!! I joke around that it took me 28 years to grow boobs lol. Love them, hope they stay! 

    Bad: I refuse to dye my hair due to paranoia of hurting the baby in any way. Same with my nails- short, and not done for a while now. I will look terrible soon, especially since my natural color is dark brown, and the chosen dye is burgundy red!! Bad combo!! 

    Ugly: That effen hemorrhoid I feel every time I poop now. Oh...and my ass in general. I get clumps of flesh forming under my skin due to those totally (not) amazing progesterone shots, and now I have cottage cheese cellulite on my butt with an addition of nut shaped lumps.

  • Good: My DH is waiting on me hand and foot (I know it's not a physical thing but that's about the only good thing I got going for me right now)

    Bad: boobs are sore, back pains, nausea all day, extreme exhaustion... I could go on all day...

    Ugly: because of my constant upset stomach Im getting reoccurring cold sores. Bottom lip, top lip, they don't discriminate.
  • Good: I'm starting to get the hang of keeping MS under control so that is exciting for me! My skin has actually been better than it was before, I would always flair up just before my period!

    Bad: Bloating is really uncomfortable some days. I can't sleep past 5:30 anymore!

    Ugly: My sex drive is gone. Alllll gone :(

  • Good: no morning sickness! :)

    Bad: I've never been so tired. I could sleep the entire day away!

    Ugly: take your pick: no sex drive, my pants don't fit, acne, bacne, and several people (who don't know) have told me "you look tired!"... No shit. I'm tired and I'm pregnant people!
  • Good: Excited about becoming a mom, seeing my husband become a dad

    Bad: Everything hurts and I am so irritable.  So very, very irritable.

    Ugly: Overwhelming sense of superiority because I've read all the books, I've taken all the classes, and I AM GOING TO BE SO MUCH BETTER AT THIS THAN EVERYBODY ELSE.  Is that just me? The borderline delusional superiority complex?

    The good: Boobs! I have always rocked a fine ass worthy of Sir Mixalot's attention, but I had the chest of a boy. No longer!

    The bad: I could happily sleep 18 hours a day. I did once. It was glorious.

    The ugly: They call me...greaseball.

    THE BAD: the boobs I mean I was already a DDD they are way to big for me, my husband would disagree but I just can't handle it.
