Okay, so I debated whether or not to write about this. Is it too personal? Is it something that will gross people out? After much deliberation, I decided to write about it and get input back from other women who have gone through what I went through today. If this is normal, please let me know. If not, please let me know. If it is not normal then I will delete this post and let's just pretend I never said anything.
So, I was in the middle of my afternoon run today and something happened that made me stop dead in my tracks. Here is where it gets embarrassing. I realized that as I was running, a little bit of pee came out. Yeah, I said it. It's not like a peed in my pants or anything, but it was a drop more than I am used to sprouting out during a run :) I talked to some very reliable sources that have experienced the same thing I did and I was reassured that it was very normal and it would probably only get worse. Great! I can't wait! Oh well, I guess it is just one of those things that we (pregnant women) get to endure to enjoy the life of motherhood.
I told Noah of my "experience" today and his response was not exactly what I was looking for. He said, "That's gross." How sweet is he?!? I told him that he has one job in the next 9 months, and that is to say to me "That's okay babe, I am sure that is normal." So far he has failed at his one job. I am sure there will be more opportunities for him to redeem himself though!
Erin that is totally normal and it only gets worse. Your sources were right and it does not end after pregnancy. It is great being a mom but your body never comes back. Wait till you jump on a trampoline. Brandi Swenson

ReplyDeleteI love the comment about the trampoline! Hate to tell you this, but wait until you've had your second! (also, watch off for coughing and sneezing!) :)
