TV cravings

ok.. when I say that, I don't mean seeing food on TV and then craving them.. which I do, constantly. No, I've just decided that being pregnant is making me crave certain tv shows, lol. I've become addicted to TLC. I will sit and watch 'Say yes to the dress' or 'I didn't know I was pregnant' for hours on end.

And I'm not really sure why. 'Say yes to the dress' I keep picturing myself trying on dresses all fat and pregnant.. and it just depresses me. I start thinking about what style I'd want (SO dont understand the mermaid silhouette) and then I'd think.. well I'd want something flattering to my figure.. then I start to think about my figure right now... and that's when it gets depressing, lol.
Although recently I have started fantasizing about a special girls trip to NYC when Ains gets engaged and watching them treat her like a princess and find her the perfect dress I get to take care of for her. And that makes me smile. I am worried however that the show is totally skewing my ideas of money in that area. lol. I think I paid around $500 for my dress, but if anyone walks in and says they want to keep it under $2k I think 'sheesh, cheapskates.. what are you doing there??' lol. Tho, the last question is pretty valid. If you are looking for an inexpensive gown, I wouldn't go to Kleinfelds, lol.

'I didn't know I was pregnant' has been interesting. Before I was pregnant I'd watch those shows and think 'those women are crazy!! How do they not know??' But now that I'm all knocked up I have a different perspective. At first it made me feel guilty. These women go through their regular lives and don't even notice they're pregnant.. while I lay around moaning for hours at a time and take naps every day I can make it work. So for a while I stopped watching it cuz it just made me mad, lol. Today tho, I was watching it again and decided maybe that's the way to do it, lol. None of this worry and anxiety. No sickness, no painful blood draws or invasive examinations. I mean, obviously I wouldn't want the baby to have problems from no prenatal care.. so what if I just take vitamins all the time.. (i mean, they are good for you) and eat right. I don't do anything really crazy I can't do pregnant. Maybe I'd have to watch my Tuna intake.. ..oO(tuna rolls.. yumm) but how nice would it be to just one day all of a sudden, 'oh, the baby's coming!' awesome. done.

Can you tell I'm tired today? lol. 12 weeks pregnant and still getting sick.. I really hope this goes away.. anyway, I must stop blogging, there's a new 'the little couple' on. ;)

  1. LOL!! I watch those same shows while preggers too! You are cracking me up with your commentary on Say yes to the dress. I do the SAME thing. I paid about the same as you did for my dress and I sit there and think some is cheap for trying to get a dress for under 2k. Ahhh so funny.
