Me: “I have nails long, sharp, and strong enough to cut through melons.”
Him: “I doubt that.”
Me: “But I never had them long and strong like this before! It grows at a phenomenal rate!”
Him: “That’s interesting. Maybe hormones.”
I am told that the abundance of beta-HCG (pregnancy hormone), is the reason for this. Extra hormones can make hair and nails grow faster and become stronger. Ah well! I’m not complaining… I like my new hair. And seems like Poochie likes it too when I cuddle her and scratch her belly!
