How I miss Being Fat!!

I miss those days of being pregnant & bloated,walking like a whale,being unable to see my toes,those false contractions(braxton hicks),those hedious stretch marks, being unable to sleep prone at night,sleepless nights,peeing every few minutes,craving for merepek things & lots & lots of TLC from hubby(not that I don't get any from him now)BUT when you're pregnant everything falls at your feet!It's just PERFECT!
Being pregnant 3 times is not an easy feat.I don't regret it all as all 3 of my kids grew up to be beautiful kids..I wonder sometimes how our grandparents acheive that tedious task of getting pregnant 8-13- GOD KNOWS HOW MANY..I think during their time being pregnant was a breeze.All my 3 pregnancies were different mind you.Not every pregnancy is alike.Every pregnancy entails different kind of care & every pregnancy makes you think what the child would be like when he/she comes out into the world.
For all my births I refuse to take any forms of major anaesthesia like epidural.I only relied on gas & jabs.As a nurse that time I knew that having an epidural would entail certain side effects like bachache mostly and I can't live with that.THANK GOD for my high tolerance of pain.Trust me you'll know...I'm not trying to scare all you pregnant mums out there BUT you have to be prepared.Learning the art of pushing & breathing at the same time time is downright important.Cos if the technique is wrong that's it you'll have no more breath left when THE BIG CONTRACTION comes
Last sunday I attended a double baby shower which makes me reflect on the times when I myself was carrying a baby.How I miss those times...try for a 4th baby you say?Well only time will tell...insya-ALLAH...
