Ok, so this Old Wives Tale is definitely true in my case!

You've all heard the saying that when you are pregnant with a boy, you look great, and if you are pregnant with a girl, she drains your 'beauty'.

I swear, I have such a hard time looking decent lately. I have never had a problem with breaking out EVER...even in high school, I might have had one pimple at a given time, but even that was rare. I can currently count 3 or 4 blemishes.

I definitely notice that it takes much longer in the bathroom to look presentable

This girl of mine is going to come out looking incredible

OMG...ME TOO! It isnt so much my complexion as just my overall looks. I look like total crap. My hair looks bad, my skin looks dull, my eyes look beady and I swear I have JLO pregnancy nose already. Sigh.

I totally agree. I broke out in the beginning of this pregnancy. Now, I just feel like my hips have blown up like a volcano! I feel like she is so much lower than with DS. At least I have big boobs lol!
