HAHAHA Every single one of those applies to me. I think the only thing left out for me was - can't be around her husband because no matter what he says his comments either make her a)annoyed and irritable b)want to cry, c)guilty, or d)all of the above - all resulting in wanting to be as far away from him as possible.
HAHA joys of preggo world
lol. ahhh the joys of being pregnant! my poor husband, i have had 4 kids in five years.. i dont think he remembers what life is like with me not emotional, cranky, and sleep deprived!
This is such a relief to hear! I thought I was having the worst pregnancy ever. I'm so glad there are others :)
I will add:
A condition that makes you waddle like a duck and attract the popping eyes of nearly everyone you waddle by like they think you might EXPLODE at any time!
