Must be school picture time! Warning: Graphic Description

I know with each pregnancy I get a little "treat"

With Logan,
it was the itchy "pregnancy rash"
that cleared up 2 days before my appointment
with the dermatologist.
In the future they told totake a picture before it clears up.
Right.

With Hunter,
it was the massive vomiting each day from 4-7 pm
in the 1st trimester
and the horribly blotchy skin
in the 3rd trimester
and in the weeks after
having him ripped through my abdomen
giving bith.
Hunter was also lucky enough to get the face frenzy as well.
Cute.

I am currently experiencing an ailment
unlike the previous two.
Acne.
Sigh.
And not even acne.
A rash-like smattering of
tiny,
large,
random,
bright red,
well ok,
acne.
It's like I'm in high school
and
pictures are on 
Monday.
Except,
I don't even get the satisfaction
of sitting on the bathroom sink
and 
popping these badboys
until the mirror is splattered 
with 
zit juice.
Yes,
these sorry excuses for "zits"
have.
no.
heads.
The nerve.

I am all for the pregnancy "glow"
but 
my face has the glow
of 
hot
MOLTEN
LAVA.
Not the look I was going for.

Is this what the girl hormones are doing to me?
I guess if this is my penance for having a girl,
I'll take it.

As if my fat ass wasn't enough.

I had to laugh at the popping them til the mirror was full of zit juice, lol!!

I'm sorry you are having to deal with this!

Okay, sorry...but GROSS! The mirror thing gives a visual that I don't finda all that appealing. Aren't hormones the best?

You poor thing! That sucks!

I have found that the Mary Kay acne stuff works really well and is pretty darn cheap. Damn hormones from having my kids screwed me up forever I'm sure! I can't wait to hold all that stuff over their heads someday! ;-) Oh, what we go through for our kiddos!
