Don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone

Yes, I am excited to have my baby! I can’t wait to meet him. I’m also very excited to have my body back to functioning normally again. When the pain and fatigue are gone, when I’m healed up, I’m going to go swimming. I’m going to go for a run. I’m going to dance. I’m going to have some great sex! 

I’m going to appreciate my body so much, and I don’t care if I retain some of the baby weight or have stretch marks or spider veins or any of that, I just want to be able to DO again and to FEEL good.

Don’t fret readers, if you are considering conceiving. Many pregnant women do not get so bad (only 10{7920e18cf5186565893a18d1f69fa52bf2806dc683a7bfcea51d671d2f7d8125} get what I’ve got) and can still do many things all the way up until the birth. But for me, it has been a hard time, and it has made me really appreciate and miss my health terribly.
