Funny responses ladies. I love them.

-you go pee, sigh, lift baby up and pee some more.

-you swear one side of your belly will get stretch marks from the kicking and the other side will be unmarred.

-getting up from any position requires a totally new set of muscles and movement patterns that rival that of any Olympic gymnast.

Rolling over in bed makes me feel like I deserve an olympic medal

count me in!!!


~~ when the simple act of crawling into bed exhausts you & causes you to lay still while your uterus contracts from the effort

~~ the simple act of putting on pants/socks/underwear is simply exhausting & seems to take FOREVER

~~ Your belly is attempting to turn on the stove every time you lean into it....

~~ Your hubby can tell when you did the dishes just by looking at your shirt...it's soaked on the bottom half & you have no idea!!

~~ changing positions at all cause you to have contractions....

~~ the kids laugh at you when you need to get off the floor....

~~ you are having more swelling issues simply because it is winter & the heat is on in the house....at least with my summer kids I could have the AC blasting!! I find myself opening up windows to let the ice cold air in right now

-turning sideways to get through tight spaces doesn't help and just gets the baby bonked because you are now wider front to back than side to side.

-even your maternity shirts don't cover your belly anymore.

You burst into tears when you're trying to squeeze into your rubber snow boots because the boots don't fit on your swollen feet anymore, you've grown out of even your biggest pair of maternity jeans so leaning forward in too-tight jeans to reach your foot hurts, and THEN you drop your boot on the floor and there's no one around to pick it up for you.

- - When you start keeping a bottle of water in bed with you because trying to reach the nightstand is impossible.

[koalove]

if you do decide to pick up the dropped item, you do it with your toes.

[xiola]

when you get dd out of her bed and bring her into yours when you go to sleep because you just want to snuggle with her a little bit more while she's still your only baby! btw-am i the only one that's restarted full time cosleeping since being preggo and loooooving it?!

yes this is me!!!!! I do not want to let go of her being my baby.

- when you pick up things with your toes
-when you get mad at your children for stealing your exercise ball, cause everything else is too uncomfortable
-when you let your children have cereal for dinner so you don't have to cook.
-when you sit in the tub and the first thing to touch the bottom of the tub is your hemorrhoids.:


This made my day. Thank you!

Instead of walking all the way through the mall from Sears to Penney's, you drive around. I'm embarrassed to post this, because a) I was at the mall, and b) I am usually way against using a car for something so frivolous. But I did it :

[emamum]

while vaccuuming you use the hose to pick things up off the floor cos they are too far away to reach

you get upset when you have to put your boots on cos you have to fasten them and its too much effort... then fastening your boots makes you wet yourself

you know that sex could start off labour but really dont have the energy for that

you put the same amount of water in the bath as you do for your children and then have to drain some out because theres too much!

you have been to the shop in your pyjamas and slippers and dont care who saw you

[oliversmum2000]

thank you everyone it is so nice not feeling alone
