Has anyone heard the old wives tale that a baby girl will steal her mommas beauty during pregnancy? Boy, has that…

Has anyone heard the old wives tale that a baby girl will steal her mommas beauty during pregnancy? Boy, has that reigned true for me, lol. Thank GOD my hormones have not been insane and I have been able to laugh about most of it. I have almost ZERO color, I look like the living Casper, dark circles and bags under my eyes, ruptured capillaries EVERYwhere. Literally from my face to my toes. Varicose veins, hair in places I didn't know it could even grow, my jowels have grown, my hair and nails grow like crazy but not healthy, lol And now I am a swollen mess. But somehow, I have been able to get excited about even these, the crappiest effects of pregnancy, because I know it all means there is a sweet baby girl just growing in my belly! So thankful that my husband still manages to tell me I'm beautiful when I hobble out of bed in the morning on my cankles, with my face swelled so bad I can barely open my eyes or close my mouth, breathing like an obese elephant and a head full of nappy hair, lol 😂 Almost to the finish line and hopefully I will be able to look somewhat human again shortly after :)

This sounds like me during my last pregnancy and during this pregnancy, but both of my children are boys! Lol!

I'm feeling the same way. I've never had acne and now I'm feeling like a teenage boy. I waited for "the glow" my entire pregnancy lol I don't think it's coming

@momx2, Yes! My face is horrible and the only glow I've experienced has been sweat from hot flashes, lol.
