This is a quick blog as I just wanted to make note of a new discovery (there are many these days, but this one is blog worthy)

Post-pregnancy, I have noticed that I have had *A LOT* of hair fall out. Everywhere I am, every time I run my hand through my hair, I end up with about a handful out. Some may know that my hair is super super thick to begin with so I am not worried about my hair getting thinned out. (As my mom has noted, braiding half my head is about the same amount as most people's entire head) It's just annoying, strange, and slightly concerning when I will take a shower and end up with handful after handful of hair in the shower strainer thing. P finally looked it up for me here and here's an interesting article:
Basically, during pregnancy, my body says "stop dropping out" to my hair. Right after, my hormones fix themselves and say, "Alright, everybody out!".
Anyways, not much I can do about it other than irritate my entire family by leaving hair everywhere... but hey, what's new!

I didn't ever get that one. My feet are bigger though. Did you know that can happen post pregnancy? Amazing stuff, isn't it?
Being preggo really changes a lot of things for sure! I never thought I would be able to wake up for baby. I always slept quite soundly. Even through fire and security alarms outside my room door (with it open).
