I was having some probably pregnancy ailments when I wrote it, so I thought I double checked it accurately, but NOPE! haha

I feel that to my core π pregnancy and postpartum turns women into a new person. I've done to twice
I have about 2 weeks left, but probably closer to 3 due to it being my first, and a few days ago it seemed everything started attacking me!
The urgent pee need like every hour once I go go sleep, but I can go multiple hours if I'm awake was probably the start and is super annoying!
A tweak in my back that caused deep breaths or hiccup type things to shoot intense pain through my body, that finally reduced after I remembered I could ask my husband to press on it π random hits of nausea releasing after I burp or pee π€
Not to mention hitting my foot on the sharp corner of a drawer, or stepping on a cactus needle that got stuck in my foot.
I've been pretty good at keeping my noises to myself until all of this started happening. Hubby pointed out he wasn't used to hearing all of these noises from me, so I explained it, and then added, "I'm pretty sure my belly is just too full so there's no more space for the noises on my inside" π π€£π€£π€£
But other than basically being tormented and letting all the noises out, I still feel and act like myself.
I did have heightened emotions during the 2nd trimester, but even that was extremely mild compared to what I've seen from some other women!
I think a different side might be more prevalent once I give birth to our son, but I'm a pretty integrated and self aware, secure person, so I'm not sure I'll change too much.
I did have a moment at a church we've been visiting lately where someone showed me the nursery and my internal reflection afterwards as she had said something about more babies going to be there was something like, "I'm not gonna give you my baby!"
Their messages are not more important than my son. I shared it with my husband and he commented that he kinda liked my mama bear that was coming out π I sounded like a woman.
But yeah, not long until I find out if there are any more changes that I'm not expecting that still happens π€
This is long, I'm kinda processing what I'm going through π
yeah, i'm sure you know about this but there is a whole psycho-neuro-chemical process that occurs with childbirth that has a psychedelic-like personality reset process in it. similar when you move to a new place, your brain gets more plastic and you can learn new things easier. the effect of this after the birth of my sister was very difficult for her, she had post-natal depression. the reason was that in the time since i was born, he started to turn abusive, and she was unable to integrate it.
i'm sure you won't have this issue but i'm just putting this thought into your mind so you take advantage of it - if there is habits you want to change or new things you want to do, this will be a good time to tackle them because you will be more of a blank slate with beginners mind and surprise yourself with how quickly you are able to make wanted changes to youself with your brain turning plastic.
cult leaders and manipulators look for people in these kinds of states, it is why very often in the late teens/early 20s is when people get caught in cults and develop psychological problems. the psychopath exploits this to more effectively imprint their self image onto the victim.
Very interesting.
My personality already lends me to be super adaptive and a quick learner, so that will be interesting to see how it affects me. π€
I support this 100% go with your instincts mama they won't let you down! You're in the right path β₯οΈ God bless your family
Thank you for allowing me to be your outlet. It means a lot. β₯οΈ
Wow, the predictions in this note were so off! Our son came the next day, due to unforseen medical complications for me, but still. hahah
