Some strange things that happen during pregnancy


Here are a few things that make me go hmmmm......


1. Some women produce excess saliva- up to 3 or 4 quarts a day! What the heck for?!?!

2. My balance is totally off. I am stumbling around all the time. I swear people think I am drunk!

3. You still can bleed even though you are pregnant! Some people think this is one of the bonuses of being pregnant!
NOT Bleeding!

4. I have no clue how I can go to the bathroom before I go to bed and still wake at 12:00am, 2:00am, 4:00am and again when I get up at 6:00am!

5. Weird things happen like your gums bleed ....Why??

6. I have started to dry heave in the shower. Its not morning sickness....it happens whenever I take a shower.

7. I can gag on my own bodily function...like Phlegm.....yumm huh!

8. I dream some very vivid and strange dreams! Usually someone is chasing, shooting or trying to kill me in some way! I had a dream that the kids were hiding infant twins in the garage and only feeding them once a day! LOL It is bizarre. I used to never remember my dreams!

9. I am not sure this is a pregnant thing or something I just started doing......grinding my teeth

10.Pica is a disorder that makes you crave coal, soap, dirt, paint and many other things when you are pregnant. Very strange. Glad I haven't had the urge to make mud pies!

I haven't experienced all of these. Some of them are just things I have heard of. After experiencing some of these strange things. I wonder if other Women don't tell you, so they can laugh behind your back! LOL Pregnancy is a very bizarre, fun, absolutely amazing experience. Please if you remember any strange things that happened to you during pregnancy......leave a comment! I would love to hear them! Also I plan on writing more...since I am still early in my pregnancy. I am sure there is more to come!

Waited this long....and the complaining begins



Ok....I was warned about the wonderful things that happen to you during pregnancy! If you do not want TMI stop reading. Now I believe when people tell you....YOU will be constipated...you will be! But....I found my best friend Miralax! Just wished it would help that bloated....I am as big as a cow feeling. If anyone has any suggestions, I take them :) Also I can barely keep my eyes open! I am soooooo tired! I am still working as a CNA and loving it. I am not getting enough hours, but I am too tired to argue with them. I have been nauseated, but haven't thrown up much! YIIPPPEEE! All in all I am feeling pretty dang good!
