Two posts in one day what has the world come to that she would write two posts. I mean really.
I came up with this theory as I was curling my hair and putting on make up for a dinner out tonight. The more prego I get, the more vain I get. I start taking better care of my hair usually or I should say that I do more with it. I, also, tend to then wear more make up and care about that aspect of my appearance. As my body seems to blossom out of all control, I feel this need to at least control some aspect of my appearance so that I can feel good about myself.
Anyone else have this experience?
I am sure I probably thought about this too the last time I was pregnant. But who remembers, I mean I must have forgotten since I said that the last pregnancy would be the last. hmmmm. I guess what they say is true about forgetting all the things we had said the last time around....
You obviously haven't hit the "I only have one shirt left without a stain" stage ; )
ReplyDeleteI was so exhausted while I was pregnant that I have no idea if I did more with my hair and make-up. Although, I do seem to remember really enjoying the fact that my hair was thicker and my skin was clearer.
Makes sense to me. I just rememeber my self esteem taking a huge plunge when I was preggo, so I probably tried to make up for it with more make up, lol!
ReplyDeleteI remember being really concerned about how I looked when I was pregnant...but I think I felt really beautiful and sexy at that time LOL. It's after J was born that I started feeling like I looked "mom-ish" LOL.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm....I remember mostly caring about my nails. It was the only part of my body that actually did the "glowing/wonderful" hormone change. I barfed every day with both pregnancies, for all nine months, among other things, so I took advantage of those nails. They were beautiful. So, I say work with what ya got, and do what you can to feel good. Mother nature is amazing, but great hair is nice too. ;)
