Do not house shop while pregnant

Just a word of advice to my pregnant friends (or soon to be, or one day will be). Do NOT house hunt while pregnant. I have learned that the emotional roller coaster of pregnancy will only make you more nauseous if you decide to bolster it by a few nitro packs of house hunting.

So the first house we looked at almost 2 weeks ago, put in an offer (it was the perfect house for us, by the way), listing agent took 3 days to get back with us. 3 DAYS! When you're house hunting, 3 days is like 3 weeks. Never gave us a chance to counter and never told us there was another offer. I like to call this-house lost due to @$$hole agent. Can't control other people, or their moral standards, so whatever. Pretty pissed, but as everyone says, "well obviously, it wasn't the house for you." Somehow, no tears have flowed from my poor little eyes, which is quite shocking, due to the fact that sometimes looking at a jar of peanut butter will make me cry.

Second house, we did take our time deciding on this one, BUT when we put in the offer, the day before, an offer had been accepted. DAMNIT universe! I'm pregnant. I need a stress free house hunt, but you obviously don't feel like cooperating. Where is the love?

So, perhaps you'll have better luck, but I don't suggest tampering with the already raging hormonal battle being fought in your body by introducing such a stressful situation.

OK, now, I'm off to use my new body scrub and shower gel sent to me by Bella Lucce (the most awesome bath stuff on earth). Perhaps that will equalize some of the disappointment over the last 2 weeks. You can check them out by going to www.bellalucce.com. I feel the subject of my next blog brewing, and I have a suspicion it might involve some high praise of my new bath stuff.
