    A little pick-me-up for the ladies in this thread  :)
    When you look at this picture and instead of seeing the words you think to yourself.."OMG...I'm being compared to an elephant! Is that what I look like?"

    Just had my first labour dream! Bring back the filth!!!
    My dreams have gone from porno to bizarre arthouse horror films. Last night was a labor dream, even though I know I am having a RCS. My high school AP psych teacher was my doctor and jumped out the window, falling to a very gruesome death. I pulled out a guitar and started slathering it in honey and told MH to get some pruning shears. Then someone rolled a huge laundry bin into the room which contained the remains of my doctor. I started playing the sticky guitar and a hand jumped out of the bin and started tearing at my skin on my belly. MH came back with the shears and cut off the hand's fingers. He then said the baby was here and she was sitting on his shoulder like a parrot. WTF?! I sprung awake after that one at 3:15am and haven't been able to fall back asleep.

    Sounds more like an acid trip than a dream!!! I had a dream I failed my one hour GD test. Nightmare ;)

  • - Peed the bed twice while sick with sinus infection. That was funny especially trying to get the mattress protector and fitted sheet on w a big belly. Like a comedy of errors. 
    - Ran into a mail box that has not moved ever but somehow I thought was further away. 
    - Cried because my husband does so much and I appreciated him. I hate crying and hide my face so it's a real spectacle when it happens.  So what did he do, more stuff like got me a card. 

    I will just stop there. 

  • I've always had a round face and am thicker so at 28 weeks I still get this. I've learned to brush it off but it does sting a little still. 
    Plus side for me is I didn't have to buy new pants until last week cause being thicker I always went for the stretch factor anyways
  • When you STILL have a B belly at 29 weeks and have a difficult time getting people to believe that you're really that far along because you just look fat to them.

    In the last two weeks, I've had the following experiences:
    1. Went to mom's group at my church. One of the ladies asks if I have any kids. I motion to my belly that I brought mine with me. Lady says "oh" and nearly trips in surprise
    2. Checked out day care provider. After getting to know each other for 30 min., she narrows her eyes and suspiciously asks me if I'm really this far along. No, I'm just pranking day care providers for the fun of it???
  • This happens at work all the time. Im constantly yanking my shirt down. 
  • I woke MH up in the middle of the night demanding to see his phone because I was certain he was having an affair. I had a dream that he was cheating on me and then while still dreaming, I woke up from the dream-within-a-dream and he was texting some chick about how he was just waiting for me to fall asleep and then he would go over. Then I woke up for real, pushed him out of bed and grabbed his phone. Poor guy was completely flummoxed and tried with all his might not to look at me like I had lost my damn mind. He then had to spend an hour from 3am to 4am consoling the sobbing mess that is now his wife.

  • When you get to wear sexy compression stockings to control your cankles and now realize the pain you put your elderly patients through when putting those damn things on them.
  • Shoes! Gah I hate shoes! Why did LO need to be born at the beginning of spring! Mamas feet need flip flops right now!
  • When wiping after peeing becomes a challenge.

    YES!! I have noticed this in the last week... so not cool :( You feel like you're about to pull a muscle.
  • When you're not sure if the raaaaaaage you're feeling is just you being hormonal over every little thing or if DH really is being that much of a Twatwaffle.

    I am constantly double checking myself because I sometimes become filled with such intense rage which seems disproportionate to the offense against me. But sometimes, people are really just being dicks.

    Yep. At a certain point last pregnancy, it actually became easier to reach from behind.

    Lol. Good to know I'm not the only one who is doing this. As of a few weeks ago it's the only way I can get anything accomplished while wiping.

    And let's be real, even this is sometimes a struggle.
  • I'm waiting for the moment I go to reach and fall off the toilet because I'm heavy and have no center of gravity... Especially those groggy 1-4am bathroom trips.

    Literally almost fell off the toilet during my 4:30 bathroom run last night
  • @yogahh I know we have the same due date but apparently we are having the same growth spurts. All weekend long people were commenting on how big I've gotten!

  • When you order the full rack of ribs with a side of shrimp so you can take some to lunch the next couple days but then eat EVERYTHING on the plate  :#
  • Night sweats.  Waking up in the middle of the night, drenched in sweat, thinking... "oh shit, I hope I didn't just pee myself".

  • When you get woken up from a dead sleep by an animal outside your window that sounds like a crying baby.  Wtf.  Am I dreaming?
  • When you switch from your bed to the guest bed because you've been deep cleaning the whole house and you just finally started on your own room and the old bed had to be taken apart. And then on that first night your husband has to work, so you wake up home alone at 3am with a desperate need for the bathroom, but you can't move or roll over or even push yourself up because there's a like three or four inch foam mattress topper that you sink a little too easily into. Luckily, you manage to figure things out and make it to the bathroom juuuuuust in time, but not without panicking and sending off a thousand text messages to said husband, who can't leave work and is definitely laughing at you the whole time.

  • When you drop something and its like its gone. Especially when you're in a hurry. Bending over is just too hard.

  • When you eat your dinner sitting/bouncing on your fit ball because chairs don't work anymore. Ouch.

    I usually bend over a lot for my job as a teacher (picking up stuff, assigning carpet spots). I have completely abandoned this. My kids just laugh at how I can't lean down anymore.
  • When you take a bath and then get stuck in the tub and have to call to H to help get you out. Oh brother...
  • When you bend over to pick up your toddler's socks and unknowingly make noise and your mother in law asks if you are alright.  Definitely ok, just too much work to bend over!!! Haha!

    I don't even realize half the time that I'm making noises/grunting when I bend over/get out of bed/off the couch/put on socks&shoes/etc because it's just the norm now and I'm not sure I could accomplish the task without making noises/grunting.

    Y'all have got to master the squat. I have no trouble picking up anything, and squatting helps prepare your body for labor, anyway. Bonus!
