The "Joys" of Pregnancy
After your child comes, you tend to get lost in those magical moments and forget all the bad that came with pregnancy.
It's natural.
It's normal.
Of course, when you find yourself pregnant again those irritating factors come back with full force. Some come back slowly and can be deemed as not as bad as some.
Issues such as sleep and acne are labeled as annoying.
I may only be five weeks along, but damnit. The acne that has blindsided me is killing me.
I don't feel like a 28 year old mother with one in the oven, I feel like I'm 14 again, embarrassed and wishing she could hide behind her hair... or a veil!
With Roo, the acne lasted during the 1st trimester and disappeared as soon as I hit the 12 week mark and I'm dreading the fact that these spots could last for another 7 weeks!
But it is the miracle of life, right?
I'm battling the acne for a better reason.
I'm growing life.
And I admit it, I'll put up with acne for a baby.
