Any one else picking stuff up with their toes...

..like a pregnant Chimpanzee?  Because if you are not, I suggest you start now.  Bending over is for the birds.

    LOL

    Not so much my toes....but my two year old has been very helpful at bringing me items and picking things up for me. That's one definite positive to having a toddler around while hugely pregnant...that and all the belly kisses I can handle.

    I would take gold in this if the 3tri Olympics were a real thing.
    I make cute babies.

    Yes, but I have to admit to doing it whenever possible since I was a kid. I do that ALL the time, even if it takes extra effort to do so, because psychologically it makes me feel like I am expending less energy. haha.

    Lol. I do this even when I'm not pregnant. It's a lot more entertaining for my husband when I do it pregnant though.

    Yes but I also often just leave stuff.

    If I don't need it, it stays on the floor! I had a tuition statement fall under my desk today and I tried so hard to pick it up with my toes. I ended up wriggling on the floor like a beached whale trying to get it...but at least I got it!

    YesThis! My husband was standing in the doorway of the bathroom laughing the other day at me picking up clothes off the floor with my toes. What was sad was I didn't really even think twice about it, I just did it b/c it was a habit and easier than bending over!

    Yes - but I have to be careful because if I flex my foot wrong I get a cramp. Like PPs I did this before becoming pregnant as well!

    Totally! Small things with my toes and for some of the bigger stuff (because I'm clumsy and drop everything) if I'm sitting down I'll use both feet.

    Not picking stuff up with my toes yet. BUT I have been seriously attempting to task my dog with picking this stuff up, and reaching for things. Like, as in looking at her and pointing at things. And then waiting for her to get them. She stares at me, and I stare right back saying "What? Get it."

    However, when I do have to get up in the middle of the night to pee for the 20th time, I do waddle into the bathroom like a fat penguin.  And I grunt like...whatever grunts when it's trying to roll over. I'm feeling super sexy these days.
