I'm just starting to hit the horrible hormonal stage... I was crying in bed because Nathaniel told me I was beautiful, and I just can't see it. End result: As soon as we can (location, not finances) he's going to dye my hair, and then I'll get a haircut, and then we're going shopping for some maternity clothes!]]> Sun, 26 Mar 2006 08:40:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1899&PID=35215&title=feeling-beautiful-not#35215 <![CDATA[Feeling beautiful!!

Oh, mum2emj ...

You need to go and get yourself (actually, make the father of your bump do it since it's all his fault ) a lovely body scrub or body wash or something wonderfully similar, and a mask for your hair or something else completely luxurious, and take some you time, and make yourself feel wonderful! Or, you could find a hairdresser and get your fringe trimmed, or your eyelashes tinted or your ends nipped or something inexpensive, but still wonderful and cheerful ...and make he-who-is-to-blame do some babysitting while you're off doing it

(P.S. I have no idea how practical/impractical this suggestion is ...but if even the thought cheered you up any, I have achieved my goal!)]]> Thu, 23 Mar 2006 14:33:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1899&PID=34833&title=feeling-beautiful-not#34833 <![CDATA[Feeling beautiful!!

Lizzle ... Shhhhhhh!!

I don't want to know. The next time I get pregnant, I am going to be gorgeous and divine and glowing the entire 9 months. My feet and ankles aren't going to swell, my hair will shine, there will be no acne, and I will keep my bikini line in line the entire time. I am also not going to get morning sickness, and will not put on an ounce of pregnancy weight. *Snort* I'll let you all know how that goes ...

Actually ...no, not me. My husband is with engineering (line maintenance in Auck)... and was silly enough to tell me about the offer to Air NZ employees. I imagine someone will be looking at him sideways for buying womens boots

Hey Paws!! Have you checked out the new shoes for Air NZ - designed by Briarwood? I love the winter boots!! If you haven't seen them, you should!!

(P.S. I actually only checked into this tread because I saw a posting by Mrs Frantic ...and I thought that was the most fantastic name!)

Also ...you guys are so putting me off ...what happened to glowing? What happened to joyful serenity??? lol You mean to say it's not a doddle in the park this whole pregnancy business? The next thing you'll be complaining that birth hurts. It doesn't, does it?

(BTW - although I M/C my barely there pregnancy last month, I couldn't believe how much my boobs hurt!! How long does that keep up?? I was just about ready to chop them off!

I just feel fat and frumpy...

I love our new uniform (Air NZ) but I'm sorry....the maternity uniform leaves much to be desired! That really makes me feel porky!

Plus I'm suddenly the proud owner of 2 extra kg and I'm trying to work out where it suddenly came from.

I know I shouldn't complain because I'm having a baby but I worked really hard losing weight a few years ago and it's hard watching the scales creep up...even if it is for baby! ]]> Thu, 23 Mar 2006 11:03:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1899&PID=34761&title=feeling-beautiful-not#34761 <![CDATA[Feeling beautiful!!

Hey Ladies,

Just read Paws topic on no energy. I agree totally. I have no energy either and am in second trimester. 

 I would also like to say I dont have the nice shiny, full, lustrioius hair, beautiful skin and I dont feel beautiful. Apparently that is another thing people are meant to experience in second trimester. My partner says I have all those but I think hes just being nice.

What about you ladies??
