Blame it on the Hormones...

I have been enlightened by something throughout my pregnancy so far. I never fully understood just how powerful the all-mighty hormones are. Guys - you really shouldn't beat yourself up for not understanding women, just blame it on the hormones. My fellow pregos and moms, this one's for you.

When you're sitting at work and the room suddenly begins to feel like a sauna - only at your desk...blame it on the hormones.

When you begin to notice white flakes coming from your scalp though you've never had dandruff before...blame it on the hormones.

When nothing can keep you from finding someplace that serves chicken salad sandwiches...blame it on the hormones.

When you wake up in the middle of the night SCREAMING from that nasty charlie-horse that you feel the whole next day...blame it on the hormones.

When you can't keep your eyes open and it's only 7pm...blame it on the hormones.

When you get stressed out about trivial things...blame it on the hormones.

When you look at your belly and notice little black hairs longer than any leg hair you've ever had - even in the dead of winter...blame it on the hormones.

When you brush your teeth and you look like Dracula because of the blood from your gums...blame it on the hormones.

When you forget that you were re-tracing your steps to remember what you forgot...blame it on the hormones.

When your ears never seem to cease producing insane amounts of ear wax...blame on the hormones.

When your face looks like you're growing planets...blame it on the hormones.

When you get head congestion that never clears up...blame it on the hormones.

When you find yourself crying for absolutely no reason - and you know it's irrational...blame it on the hormones.

When you realize that kankles are real and that you are growing them...blame it on the hormones.

And finally... (Well the last one was really funny but John made me take it off. It was a bit to personal. It might embarrass the guys.)
