Real talk. Being pregnant is very exciting. There are so many feelings that you experience, emotionally and physically but it’s definitely not all pretty or easy. As my pregnancy comes to an end, here is the good, the bad and the ugly of my first experience being pregnant. I would love to know if any women who have been pregnant can relate!
The GOOD
- Thankfully, I had a pretty easy pregnancy. I had a lot of energy for most of it and was able to stay very active.
- Everything tastes AMAZING. Seriously. I feel like I have super powerful tastebuds or something.
- I didn’t really have any weird cravings. I just always craved my favorite fruit: mango!
- No COMPLICATIONS: Only good results which I am very grateful for.
- Everyone is nice to you, you get smiles on the street, and upgrades on planes. LOL! And I can boss Hector around. 😉
- You get to indulge sometimes. You still have to be careful and not overindulge but still, you have a pretty valid excuse.
- I feel the baby and he moves around SO much. This is one of the strangest/most beautiful things I have ever experienced.
- My hair and nails are SO strong!
- I got an amazing belly band that seriously saved my life. This belly band kind of works like an extension and allows you to wear your regular jeans. I was able to use this with my jeans and bottoms for the first months of my pregnancy and you can’t understand what a relief that was. I used it until the last possible second.
The BAD
- I am not sleeping very well. For many months now, I feel like I haven’t had a good night’s sleep. I am going to miss sleep.
- My boobs are huge! Yes, this is a negative for me. None of my clothes fit. I have to wear bras now. I hate bras. I am not used to having that extra weight on my chest or having boob rolls or accumulating sweat under them. It is like I am just now going through puberty. It sucks.
- I retain so much water. I feel bloated ALL. THE. TIME.
- I am ALWAYS HUNGRY! I seriously could eat all day 24/7 if I wanted. But I do try to only eat good carbs. But seriously. I have never experienced hunger like this.
- I have been lucky to have a lot of energy but there are days when I am just exhausted and I do get tired more quickly. At the beginning of my pregnancy I was tired a lot and especially now towards the end of my pregnancy, because I am so big, the exhaustion is more common.
- I don’t have a name yet, nor a nursery. The stress and nerves is overwhelming. The actual preparing for the baby is so stressful!
- I can’t wear heels for a long period of time. I miss my heels. 🙁
- I don’t really like my baby pillow. It doesn’t really help me. I just can’t seem to get comfortable at night.
- Round ligament pain! If you aren’t familiar with this term, it’s basically really sharp, jabbing pain in the lower belly or on the sides. It’s really fun.
The UGLY
- Stretch marks on my boobs but I use different types of creams on my belly and no stretch marks yet!
- I randomly burp. Super classy. I really cannot control it. So gross.
- Linea Negra has appeared. That’s what I call it, as if it were a person. The big black beautiful line right down the center of my belly.
- So this is a little gross but in a good way? My digestion is amazing! Seriously, no complaints there.
- Prenatal pills. hate them but I have to take them.
- The baby kicks and put a lot of pressure on my bladder. It’s ridiculous how many times I have to pee in a day. And I can’t even hold it in a little bit. I get nervous when there is not a bathroom close by.
Es momento de ser honesta. Estar embarazada es muy emocionante. Sientes tantas cosas, emocional y físicamente, pero definitivamente no es todo bonito o fácil. Ya que me acerco al final de mi embarazo, aquí está lo bueno, lo malo y lo feo de mi primera experiencia de estar embarazada. Me encantaría saber si alguna mujer que ha estado embarazada puede relacionarse!
Lo BUENO
- Afortunadamente, he tenido un embarazo muy fácil. He tenido mucha energía para la mayor parte de mi embarazo pude permanecer muy activa.
- Toda la comida me sabe increíble. Es en serio. Siento como si tuviera super poderes y mis sentidos se magnificaron.
- Realmente no he tenido antojos raros. Me encanta que lo que más se me antojaba siempre era mi fruta favorita: el mango!
- Nada de COMPLICACIONES: Sólo buenos resultados por lo cual estoy muy agradecida.
- Todo el mundo es agradable contigo y te tratan super bien. Te sonríen en la calle, y te tratan mejor en lugares públicos, te dan mejores lugares en los aviones. Jajaja Y puedo ser más mandona con Héctor! 😉
- Tienes la oportunidad de ser un poco más golosa. Obviamente todavía tienes tienes que cuidar mucho lo que comes pero si de repente te entran las ganas de atascarte, tienes una excusa bastante válida.
- Siento al bebé y se mueve muchísimo! Esta es una de las cosas más extrañas y hermosas que he sentido en mi vida.
- Mi pelo y uñas están mas fuertes que nunca!
- Tengo una increíble banda que me salvó la vida. Este tipo de banda funciona como una extensión y la puedes usar con tus pantalones normales. Con esto, pude usar mis pantalones y jeans normales sin problema por los primeros meses de mi embarazo. Si no han estado embarazadas, no saben lo que significa eso. Encontrar jeans de maternidad que te gusten y te queden bien es una pesadilla. Literal usé la banda hasta el último segundo posible. Fue mi mejor amiga.
Lo MALO
- No estoy durmiendo muy bien. Durante muchos meses, siento que no he tenido una buena noche de sueño. Voy a extrañar el sueño.
- Mis pechos están enormes! Sí, esto es algo negativo para mí. No me queda mi ropa. Tengo que usar brasieres ahora. Odio los brasieres. No estoy acostumbrada a tener ese peso extra en mi pecho o tener rollos abajo de mis pechos o sentir el sudor acumulado abajo de ellos. Es como si estuviera pasando por la pubertad por primera vez. Es horrible.
- Retengo mucha agua. Me siento hinchada TODO. EL. TIEMPO.
- ¡Siempre tengo hambre! En serio podría comer todo el día si quisiera. Pero trato de comer sólo buenos carbohidratos. Pero en serio. Nunca he sentido tanta hambre en mi vida.
- He tenido la suerte de tener mucha energía la mayoría del tiempo, pero hay días en los que estoy agotada y me canso más rápidamente. Al principio de mi embarazo estaba cansada muy seguido y sobre todo ahora hacia el final de mi embarazo, porque estoy tan panzona, me canso muy rápido.
- Todavía no tengo un nombre, ni está listo el cuarto del bebé. El estrés y los nervios es demasiado. La preparación para la llegada del bebé es muy estresante!
- Ya no aguanto los tacones. Extraño mis tacones. 🙁
- Realmente no me gusta mi almohada prenatal. No me ayuda. Simplemente no me puedo poner cómoda en la noche.
- Dolor de ligamentos redondos! Si no está reconoces este término probablemente es porque no has estado embarazada. Básicamente es un dolor muy agudo en la panza en la parte de abajo o en los lados. A veces vienen como en espasmos. Es muy divertido.
Lo FEO
- ¡Las estrías en mis pechos! Me deprime pero supongo que era inevitable. De no tener nada, a como estoy pues lo esperaba. Uso muchos tipos de cremas en mi panza y hasta ahorita menos mal no me han salido estrías ahí!
- Erupto de la nada. Super femenina, lo sé. Realmente no puedo controlarlo. Qué asco.
- Linea Negra ha aparecido. Así es como le digo, como si fuera una persona. La línea negra hermosa que le sale a las embarazadas en el centro de la panza esta muy visible. Es super bonita.
- Ok, esto es un poco asqueroso pero en una buena manera? Mi digestión esta mejor que nunca! En serio, me encanta que no tengo problemas en ese departamento.
- Las pastillas prenatales. Las odio, pero tengo que tomarlas.
- El bebé patea y pone mucha presión sobre mi vejiga. Es ridículo cuántas veces tengo que hacer pipí en un día. Y ni siquiera puedo aguantarme un poquito. Me pongo nerviosa cuando no hay un baño cerca.
Loved how you’ve shared your experiences so far in bullet point form. Remember to focus on the good, you’ve got this! 🙂

You’re still managing to look so gorgeous in all of your photos and clothes! I can honestly say that you pull off this baby bump well, it’s so found and perfect! Doesn’t seem like you’ve gained much at all anywhere else. You look great girl! I want to wish you the best moving forward. No stress, you’ll get a name and a nursery too. Best of luck and thanks for sharing everything with us!
QUE POST TAN SUPER !!!! ME ENCANTO!!!
I am 34 weeks pregnant, and I can relate to the random burping! So embarrassing, especially when you are talking to someone and you burp mid sentence!
You look amazing! What cream did you use on your belly? I’m only 6 weeks but am overly nervous about potential stretch marks. Best wishes for the last few weeks!
Really a lovely post, And I could have wrote it too! Sentence by sentence I cant relate more ☺️Im 30 weeks now And belly starts to be huge! And it gets bigger by minutes. I really dont know how u stayed so fit despite the constant hunger so please tell me ur secret! Cause i feel like i doubled my hips! 😋
Thanks for sharing! Even the bad and ugly is still such a beautiful experience and something only women will be able to understand. I find it so fascinating how our bodies have to adapt to grow a little human! Fun fact: did you know the linea negra (as you call it) is so that the baby can makes its way to the breast. If you place your new born on your stomach it will make its way there! How amazing is that? Congrats to you beautiful!
These ugly ones are just for this time. Look at the good ones and feel great. You look gorgeous. Soon #babyBlank witll be with you. I am waiting for sasme 🙂
