Looking back....

Seems like a long time ago, but it wasn't that long when I was still pregnant with little JJ. Tho i love the outcome of being pregnant, ( our beautiful, gorgeous JJ, obviously ), and I think it is a miracle, to tell the truth, I HATED being pregnant. Pregnancy wasn't good to me and it wasn't stress-free, and I just can't wait for it to be over. It is now only 3 weeks after baby JJ was born and till this day, I am terrified of the idea of being pregnant again. Love him and adore him to bits, but don't think I can face another pregnancy again, not for a long, long time. Tho we shared special moments together when he was inside of me, I think I like it better now, coz he's just adorable.


Reasons :

1. Lotsa worries about the unwanted side-effects of being pregnant - OBSTETRIC CHOLESTASIS ( main reason ), and 90% chnaces of it happening again in the next pregnancy. ( Yea right, NEXT ) !

2. Can't do much in the later stages of pregnancy. Even walking is hardwork, when you get down steps an dcan't see where you are stepping. The big elly belly gets in the way !

3. Mood swings in the early stages ! ( Poor hubby got the brunt of it, unfortunately....I am so sorry ! )

4. I hated the way I looked ! HUGE ! And now I am trying to get back to my old figure ( Damn ! I miss my old figure. I miss wearing my old clothes !! I want to go back to my old self! Boooo hooooo ! i miss my old body actually. Would do anything to get it back. But can't do anything coz JJ needs looking after 25 / 7 ). Anybody has any ideas on HOW TO GET BACK TO MY PRE-PREGNANCY BODY ?? Forget about dieting coz I love the food here, especially chocolates and desserts ! Don't mind exercising, but can't find the time and place for it !

So, tell me, LOVED or HATED being pregnant ?? Here are some pics before JJ came into the world and our lives.... All thos ephotos are taken on the day of Caesarean, just before the surgery. Note that Ian's in the surgical scrubs....Oooow, how cute ! Loved that pic !
