That’s right, guys. I’m pregnant! :) This is my first pregnancy and I’m so excited, I just had to share it with you. I will be sharing more as I go along. Thank you so much for your patience with me while I make a new human. :D But don’t worry I’m here to stay! It’s just taking me longer to do some things nowadays. :D hahah xoxoxoxoxo

Much congratulations, Cheri! You’re doing great! When I was pregnant with my daughter (first child), I couldn’t go to the grocery store because all the smells made me sick (I can clearly recall running for the door from the meat and seafood section; after that, I left the food shopping to someone else for a long while).
My most memorable cravings: I HAD to have Cheetos, ice cream, and cashews. All at the same time — eat a handful of Cheetos, take a spoonful of ice cream, then munch on a few cashews.
Btw, I was so sick, especially through my first couple of trimesters, with both pregnancies. I felt like I was doing something wrong because my friends all had those “glow-y” pregnancies. (“I love being pregnant!” said one of my best friends, and I couldn’t imagine feeling that way.) I was just glad to get it over with and be able to tie my shoes again (or even SEE my shoes, haha!).
As always, your honesty is awesome. Enjoy your upcoming mommyhood. You’re such a kind and caring person that it’s easy to see you’re going to be a fantastic mom! (And motherhood is the best! I’d do it all over again just to have my wonderful kiddos!)
No judgement here! Wonderful, happy news! Congratulations! Thank you so much for sharing.
Yay thank you so much Anne!! <3 <3
Oh Season, yet again you write the perfect comment back to help me! I always love to hear from you, thank you so much for this! First of all, I love your pregnancy craving. I was so surprised when you said those 3 things AT THE SAME TIME hahahaha. That’s super funny and yes memorable. And yes, I can totally relate to giving side-eye to anyone who says the love pregnancy. SOOO not my experience, lol. And yeah, the shoes are definitely not visible anymore. I completely get what they mean when they say it will get hard to do basic hygiene, lol. I can’t breathe!!! :D :P
I’m so glad you appreciate the honesty as always. I will keep it up! Thank you so much for the encouragement like alwyas, my friend. You’re alwyas a breath of fresh air (especially at this time, when I can’t breathe!!!;) Love to you. <3 <3 xoxox
Amen!!! I wanted to cry when I watched this, I was just so relieved to know I’m not alone. Congrats on your baby girl! I’m 20 weeks pregnant with baby 7 and am just starting to feel and eat better, the only difference is I do end up throwing up most of the timr. We have been aspiring nutritarian since our second child in 07′. I told my husband during the 1st trimester that if I knew I was going to feel like this the rest of my life I don’t know if life would be worth living… it’s sounds dramatic but that’s how bad it gets. Thanks you so much for taking the time to share this!
Not dramatic at all Sara, I totally feel you! It’s incredible how terrible it really feels and makes you wonder what purpose all that serves anyway! But wow, baby #7!!! That’s incredible in itself! You go girl! I wish you all the best for this pregnancy and hope it goes smoothly from here on out! Sending you love and strength…and a healthy baby and mama on the other side! xoxo
