The forgotten trimester

Hello everyone I'm so happy to be back on this blog site there have been so many changes in my life and I can't wait to share them with you for starters I've gotten married I have a new career and I've had another baby and it's a girl and we're very excited but this block today is talking about pregnancy I've been pregnant for three times and yes each pregnancy is different

So let's talk about pregnancy you have three trimesters that you read about the doctors tell you about and you hear about from your friends the first trimester is the Nooch the new trimester your noshes you bloated even constipated but you don't say much because you don't know if you will remain pregnant due to complications or you might miss carry anything so you don't really say anything your first trimester now going onto the second trimester now you know that your pregnancy is here him the risk of miscarrying are reduce significantly so now we start making announcements were telling people I'm we're finally getting somewhat of a baby bump and we're feeling good and that noshes this is the cute trimester because the bump is cute you're not sick you can have fun you can still work out a little bit I like that stuff third trimester the trimester full of anxiety is this it is this time you're having your fake contractions which a cop Braxton Hicks your huge you're tired and now you're just ready to have the baby and you're playing the waiting game the most frustrating part in my opinion so you finally learn how to get ready for labor pushing any complications that could go wrong you have to be really prepared by then you've had your baby shower you get the baby clothes your backpack all that good stuff and you push and you have your baby golden prize

So now your pregnancy is over you had your baby your baby is in your arms psych no it's not over because we never think about the forgotten trimester which is the fourth trimester I call it the snapback trimester it not just wait emotional physically hormonally snapback is not the easiest to get your life back together when you have a new life here depending on you demanding your attention and needing you for things it's hard to focus on yourself I will say yes every pregnancy is different but fourth trimester is pretty much The same struggle for women because is getting back to the life that you had the best way you can't and it can be frustrating

And if you have multiple kids is even harder to get your life back in order because now you have more than one personality to get used to to learn and once you get one settled if you have one child you can go work out you can go clean but when you have more than one child you have to go focus on the other job because the baby has taken a lot of your attention so you want to make sure you have Tapia other kids to and before you know it is 10 o'clock at night you haven't worked out you have really cleaned up you haven't done anything that you needed to do for yourself as an individual. Also if you're breast-feeding that's a whole Nother world to live in in addition to the world you live in with your family breast-feeding is very demanding you have to watch your diet it does help with weight loss and is very healthy for your baby and is very pocket friendly because you don't have to buy formula but it's a lifestyle change after you've had the baby that you have to live by which has some restrictions as if you were still pregnant I found myself still feeling like I was pregnant because of the diet the restricted restricted drinking I'm different foods that I couldn't eat and obsessing over my breastmilk
