On Being Pregnant – I Hope I Learned Something The First Time Around

With Mr. Boy, I was a sweetly naive first time preggo.  The Little Lady’s adoption, in so many ways, was a piece of CAKE compared to the trials and tribulations of being pregnant. . . hormonal . . . crazy . . . tired. . . being BIG and CUMBERSOME . . .

You get the picture.

This morning, I went through my archive of “When I Was Pregnant in 2009” posts, and WOW.  I had forgotten how really insane I was.  And emotional.  And I had the weirdest dreams.

If you’re bored and want to laugh at the expense of someone else, here’s a glimpse of my first journey into the pregnant realm in 2009.
