Fun topic - If you could keep one thing...

RBXChas · October 2012

Pregnancy has some perks, so I figured let's bring them up

If you could keep one feature/perk, physical or otherwise, from your pregnancy, what would it be?

So far it would have to be my boobs. They're enormous and haven't darkened (yet), and they look awesome in my sports bra.

From last time, I would have liked to keep my nail strength and awesome complexion (at least from the second trimester forward).

What about you?

I love feeling her kick all day, so if I could just keep her in there forever, I would! haha

Seriously, I would also keep my boobs. I know they are going to deflate later on

And, I would keep my hair growth. My hair grows very slowly usually, but it's really gaining some length now!

Not having a period! I don't miss that AT ALL. Mine have always been God-awful, heavy, painful events, and I would love to never have one again!

Not worrying about birth control! I went off b/c a few years ago because it made me feel awful, and condoms kind of suck.

Thick hair. I've always had nice, thick hair, but it's even better now. Some falls out post-pregnancy, and I've known some women whose hair became really thin afterwards and never recovered. I worry about that happening to me because there is a super strong history of thyroid disease on my mom's side of the family, and it has a major effect on hair.

Not having to worry about how far my belly is poking out, especially after I eat!

Great nails and people being super nice to you!

Totally second the not having to deal with a period thing. Also, so true, I love not really worrying about the effect a meal has on my belly immediately after (long-term effects remain TBD).

I didn't even consider the period thing. Yeah, that is kind of nice, especially since you get to have a nice, extra-long "period" afterwards...

My favorite from both pregnancies is definitely the shiny hair. My husband always comments on how great my hair looks when all I do is wash it. Also my nails are so strong they look great they never chip I actually have to clip them because they become too long. Also the not having a period its great except I know the month long one is on its way soon.

From my first pregnancyI loved the fact that I lost weight I actually was 11lbs lighter when I left the hospital than when I first became pregnant and I still had an 8lb baby.

As for the boobs I would be glad to give some to you ladies after pregnancy I unfortunately have more than I need without being pregnant and now they are just so heavy that they hurt.

Also the sex without consequences do not have to worry if birth control is working. Hubby loves it because he doesn't have to work around the period it is available all month long.

It's a close call for me between the boobs and the no period... I'm a pear shape so having the larger chest is nice because it helps even me out a bit. However, not having a monthly visit from our best friend is awesome too!

Hmmm lets see!! I have huge boobs already so I'll be glad to lose some, i have PCOS so half the time i don't have a period, so I'd have to say the main thing would be all this moving inside me and knowing that there's a living thing growing in there! its such a blessing and I don't think there's anything cuter than a pregnant woman!
