Can we just take a minute to talk about pregnancy hormones. I am so tired of crying over stupid things. Pregnancy hormones have the power to take a completely rational human being and turn them into an irrational, sobbing pile of goo. Thankfully the hormones with this baby haven’t been as bad as they were with my second pregnancy, but things still build up until I snap and have an emotional breakdown. At least this time around in crying about pretty fair things and not stuff like missing clothes or lacking unhealthy candy snacks in the house. Yeah, I’ve done that. My second pregnancy was an adventure. I definitely suspect I was that way because that was my one girl pregnancy but who knows if that’s how that actually works.

Crying isn’t the only horrible side effect of the hormones. Cue weight gain and acne. The weight gain is especially bothering me this time around. How does it make any sense at all that a woman’s most emotionally vulnerable tine is also when she’ll put on the pounds? If there is a god out there, bro what is you doing?! I just do not understand. I’m hoping exercising a bit will help with the weight gain this time, but it’s so hard to motivate myself to drag the kids with me to the gym in the heat. The weather has been just so gross lately. So sitting on the sofa feeling sorry for myself it is! Sorry summer bod, maybe I’ll see you next year.
