The adventures of Mommy woman
Published on April 25, 2006 By JillUser In Misc

I saw the headline "Celebrities make pregnancy glamorous" on MSN.com today and laughed out loud.  Yeah, glamurous.  That's what I would call my swollen legs, ankles, and feet.  Those vericose and spider veins are gorgeous!  I feel like a movie star!!

I feel anything but glamorous but I'm not one of those thin girls who don't have an extra ounce anywhere except their cute little round baby belly.  I sometimes think I am carrying the baby in my butt.  I'm bloated everywhere and don't feel pretty at all.

I don't feel beautiful on the outside but I know what is going on on the inside is beautiful.  It may be a long hot summer for me.  I doubt it will be "glamorous" at all

Wow! Thanks so much! We just got back from vacation yesterday (a day late) so I am just now seeing this. You made my day!

I read that.  I hope you quieted Brad and made him accept it and enjoy the extra day!

He survived it pretty well since he managed to find the only bookstore around and also had internet access. I didn't mind the extra day there it just made getting back a lot worse. 15 minutes after we got home yesterday I took Ryan to a birthday party, grocery shopped, made dinner for Brad and Alex, picked Ry up, fed him and myself, started some laundry and unpacked, got the kids bathed and ready for bed and then dropped dead at about 10:30.

Today has been nothing but running too. I'm exhausted! It doesn't help that there is something going on every day this week while Brad is in Washington. I'm going to need another vacation to recover from this one
