Why Pregnancy is Hard for Me...

This list is for when I mention to Cliff (after this baby is here) why I shouldn't do this again!

And I say to Cliff...What about one more honey, just one more? It wasn't that bad. LOL

Varicose veins, now starting in my left leg
Morning sickness that lasted till about 15/16 weeks
Gagging every time I brush my teeth
Tired all the time
Sciatica in my back
Nasal stuffiness
Hard to sleep at night (insomnia)
Hard to lift the youngest baby with a belly
Bending is an ordeal
Getting harder to put on jeans (hard to lift up my legs)
Too much worrying
Shaving is hard
Putting on weight, when I worked so darn hard to get the weight off again

I will add here, even as I remember/point out my difficulties during pregnancy...but still I could do it again. It will be hard to have Cliff get the big V. It will be hard to let go of this part of my life. This part has been the best, and most rewarding (and challenging and frustrating) part of my life. All the troubles have been worth it. I get sad just thinking about ending this chapter of my life. What will I do to fill that void of babies in my life. I guess pray for grandchildren!
