Livin' with the Fat and Uglies

Jul 18, 2011 14:05

As mentioned in my previous post, I, as most pregnant women do, feel fat and ugly at the moment. My belly isn't to the "aw, look at that cute little baby belly" stage. It's at the, "is she pregnant or just fat?" stage. I'm getting too small for my old clothes and maternity clothes still kinda hang on me and look weird. Fun times.

I've been having lots of weird pregnancy dreams, but lately I I've actually had dreams where I am smokin' hot. Skinny, lookin' good, and getting attention from people b/c of it. My brain is taking the "you feel fat and ugly" aspect and pretending that I'm really a hottie. I like those dreams. :)

Today I was looking for a video, and I thought maybe I had sent it to someone on a facebook message. I went into my inbox and found messages from 2005 still on there. It was fun to read. I had messages from people I had completely forgotten about. I also had messages from boys telling me I looked good and wanted to be my friend. ha!

Add this discovery onto my "I feel fat and ugly" stage, and it made me slightly depressed.

Last night I was talking to Andrew as he was falling asleep and probably not paying attention about how I feel like I'm different than I used to be. I used to be CRAZY JO who was always being silly, and now I'm responsible mom. It's weird what time will do to us.

Anyway, I'm not unhappy with where I am in life. I love my family, and I love that I'm having a new baby, and I love my husband who tells me I'm beautiful every day. I'm just stating what every other woman who's been pregnant states, "I feel fat and ugly and wish I were skinny again. Waaaaah!" :)

being a mom, memories, fat, pregnancy, andrew
