Comments on: Fighting the Mask of Pregnancy http://newsinglemama.com/206/fighting-the-mask-of-pregnancy/ I am a single mother of a biracial baby boy just trying to make it on my own. This journey is hard, yet rewarding. Blogging is my therapy, these words are my heart, and people doing better and being inspired by what I have written is my passion and hope.

It seems to run right through me but I've been hearing I should try to drink more. Will do. I've been lax on water for other types of drinks honestly.

I was so used to not taking vitamins that honestly it didn't even register with me that maybe it would help. I'll def try to remember to include them every day now. :D Thank you so much for both the advice and compliments.

I started slacking on that during my last trimester and the amniotic fluid level began dropping (which meant extra ultrasounds to keep on eye on it) Another added benefit of prenatal vitamins = stronger, faster growing finger nails (at least for me, anyway).

I started off taking them but with morning sickness they never stayed down so I dropped out of the habit. Maybe I should start again! Haha, that's probably my problem I don't take any vitamins.

I think it was all my reaction to prenatal vitamins, but whatever it was, I loved it! Things have changed back to the way they were before I was pregnant, so maybe that's good news for you?
