Ribs, back, hips, you name it!
I've heard that the body "remembers" it's shape and returns quicker with subsequent pregnancies, but is anybody else miserable already?!
I've got photos of myself IN LABOR last time, and I'm hardly smaller than that, now, with 12 weeks to go. I had an U/S just to make sure it was only one (twins run in my family) and it is a singleton, and he is growing right on target, and I'm HUGE! Not fat, either. It's mostly all belly.
People are asking when I'm due, I say "early September" and their eyes pop out or they raise their brows or what have you, looking shocked and sympathetic.
My garden is totally gone to pot, my bathroom floor has an obvious line of dust/stray hair all around the corners and unwalked on areas, my kids' rooms are trecherous to walk in, and I'm sleeping horribly, so have no energy to do anything.
I really feel like I'm about nine months preggo already, and am worried about being in lousy shape for the birth, since I'm so impeded by this belly.
Please tell me I'm not alone!
