I was terrified but you know what? Although there are days when 3 is overwhelming mostly it's so much better (and easier) than I thought it would be. Maybe I just had myself totally freaked out when I was pregnant so it wasn't as bad as I had imagined but really, honestly-I love it!

I too hate pregnancy and I am like you, nothing too crazy besides nausea/vomiting in the first 3-4 months but then it gets better. However, pregnancy is just hard, food is weird, stomach feels weird, body is weird etc. I also feel like I can't really complain about it either although I still do sometimes. I have some close to me that have a hard time conceiving or have had miscarriages when weeks earlier we were celebrating together. It's hard to deal with that as the one who is healthy and having everything turn out fine. <br /><br />I'm glad to see others feel like I do and I think it's just true that although pregnancy is hard, it is a blessing but we don't always feel that way. I struggle with newborns too....ahhhh!Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14161009175659763870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-68729634314924998592011-01-12T11:35:56.307-08:002011-01-12T11:35:56.307-08:00Well miss Lynsey, I want to read you an affirmatio...Well miss Lynsey, I want to read you an affirmation I read just recently. "I am PERFECTLY imperfect. I was NEVER intended to be perfect. That's part of being a MORTAL child of God. I strive to learn and grow and try IN my imperfection." I love that and it has been my affirmation for several days. I love you and I admire you keeping it real. I hope you are napping and enjoying caleb's quite time right this very minute. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with that...that's just flat out smart!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05954818657329279096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-28930034734214612072011-01-12T09:26:55.795-08:002011-01-12T09:26:55.795-08:00Lynds we are like kindred spirits.

I really don't enjoy an aspect of it. I am terrified of having another kid because although my daughter was an awesome easy baby she is the opposite kind of toddler! I can't have two kids like her, I would have to medicate. I have often told my husband that throughout my life I have ALWAYS taken the path of least resistance. I like things easy too. I love you! You're awesome good luck!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11279803832047702644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-16072922896162309542011-01-11T15:41:45.941-08:002011-01-11T15:41:45.941-08:00i'm in the same boat as you though... well exc...i'm in the same boat as you though... well except for the whole being prego thing... but i know how ya feel.

I am so excited for you to have another one of your precious blondies :) Oh and I am already gathering ideas for your baby shower....is that okay?? By the way, when are you going to write a post about how fabulous your hair is? What a great friend you are? How you can warm the chill of an icy soul like myself?? How you teach your son so well that he can already READ? How you are an amazing writer??? Write that post, I want to read that :)Fawn Beckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15848437366574927652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-9751362764178243982011-01-11T05:01:03.052-08:002011-01-11T05:01:03.052-08:00I could go down your list and check off almost all...I could go down your list and check off almost all of them for something I would say or feel.<br />Yep. TRUE STORY.<br /><br />And there's no shame in that. It's just how you feel. I've gotta be honest--the verdict is still out on the 3 kids vs. more...I can't decide which is harder...but then again, I'm dealing with a cranky, sleepless, teething baby right now! :)<br /><br />Just know that somehow, Heavenly Father will make it ALL manageable. NOT perfect, but manageable. When I had 3 kids under 3, I had anticipated the absolute WORST--I didn't know if I would be able to hack it, especially with Brandon being in med school and gone all the time. We had some stressful moments, yes, but looking back I am amazed at how STRONG I was--how many places we went together and all the fun things we did. It was like there was this fountain of help pouring down on me--<br /><br />And I have a feeling it will be much the same for you. :)<br /><br />You're such a sweet person, and a fantastic mother (regardless of liking pregnancy or not...I can't say I'm much of a fan myself. ;) And I KNOW you will be successful as you move forward...Rachel Hollowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02906959500907191201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-4444645950809575152011-01-10T21:42:30.700-08:002011-01-10T21:42:30.700-08:00I've been reading your blog for a long time no...I've been reading your blog for a long time now. I love how you are such a person. You make me feel like my brand of crazy is actually normal and ok. Thanks for being awesome and tired and makeupless (yes that's a word)! I wish we could be neighbors but blog friends is cool too.<br />As for the number of kids, honestly, the hardest for me was the first because I had to learn everything. You'll do great!Meggan Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05435752639112939535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213499219669709454.post-85029943602167976622011-01-10T21:34:25.762-08:002011-01-10T21:34:25.762-08:00three kids has taught me to chill. things are not...three kids has taught me to chill. things are not perfect and i think i'm learning to enjoy the chaos. my theory, however is that no matter the number of children, you will ALWAYS be overwhelmed!! I was overwhelmed with one, two and now three. i don't even think that i handle things that well, i've just learned to let certain things go! is this a depressing comment? sorry.janinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00219854162668359242noreply@blogger.com
