... You look at the clock, realize you have another hour and a half of work left and tear up because you are so uncomfortable and 90 minutes is an eternity.
Someone parks too close to your car for you to squeeze in your door without hitting theirs, and it's tear worthy. Seriously though, climbing in from the passenger side and climbing over in my big SUV at this stage is NOT happening. Hope I didn't scratch their door handle.
You feel like crying might not be an overreaction when a coworker mentions Pizza Hut and you can't have any RIGHT THAT MINUTE because it's 2 am and they're closed.
Rolling over from side to side in the middle of the night is enough to make you sweat and breath faster than a marathon runner.
Haha, yes! The other night I was so distraught because I wanted to roll over from my left to right side SO BAD but was telling DH that it's such an effort and not worth it. It's like the 9 point roll over. WORST.
When you get confirmation about your birth class and realize it is saturday AND sunday (even though when I signed up it said Satuday, 10/4 from 10-4, NOTHING about sunday) and you are near tears because there goes your weekend. And sitting in a class for 6 hours 2 days in a row sounds like torture.
You start laughing your ass off when your prenatal yoga instructor starts to explain "thread the needle" (similar to pulling your leg up to cross your legs but while laying on your back) never thought I was going to recover from laughing, then I felt bad and almost started crying... No winning
You are seriously contemplating sleeping on the couch vs the bed for the remainder of the pregnancy.
and
the pregnancy zombie baby Halloween costumes everyone keeps pointing out to you with the arms of the baby poking out and the belly's all bloody actually make you queasy b/c it's a little too close for comfort!
When you can hold it for 3-4 hours during the day but once sleep time hits, your bladder says "nope...you're going to be up peeing a little tiny trickle....EVERY. DAMN. HOUR."
- When someone asks you if that was a burp, hiccup or throw up, the answer is "yes."
- If you can't see it or reach it, it either doesn't exist or can't be that important.
- (For those of us having lovely 3rd tri MS) Trying to bend over a toilet with a big belly in the way makes you miss the early months of morning sickness.
- You've started avoiding people just so you don't have to answer the question "When are you due?" for the millionth time.

Going to crowded public places requires thought and planning. How will i avoid crazy assholes with carts who dgaf about preg women? How will i get out of the car if someone parked too close? What if someone hits my stomach with their purse, is assault worth it?
You're starving to death, but can't finish the normal sized dinner you just spent forever making because your stomach is too small to hold normal amounts of food! Cue the tears.
...when your fingers are so swollen that you have trouble brushing your teeth or washing your hair...let alone writing thank you notes for shower gifts.
...when your husband has to use two hands to pull you up and out of his sports car.
...when you scoff at the woman who took the stork parking b/c she looks only about 5 months.

-You have to mentally prepare yourself to get out of the chair/bed.
-Maternity shirts either cover your belly OR your chest. Not both. (The ones that cover my huge belly make me feel like I'm about to have a wardrobe malfunction. Problems of the not-well-endowed.)
-Socks... Hahahaha!
-No position is comfortable for more than 30 seconds, but it's even more uncomfortable to move.

1. You've given up on wearing shoes that require laces or do not slip on,
2. Pants have become more optional than they were,
3. Items on the floor are lost to you OR you burst into tears and someone picks it up because they feel sorry for you.

::insert bladder's evil laugh::
2. People start telling you how big you are and how the baby will be a big boy. (No idiot, I'm actually measuring right on track)
3. The act of having to get up and scoop the ice cream factors into your decision of whether or not you are going to have ice cream.

When you feel like your stomach is a chasm and you're a trashcan because of all the bad food you're stuffing in your face.
I'm eating chips out of the bag and I CANT STOPPPPP
...when your husband has to use two hands to pull you up and out of his sports car.
...when you scoff at the woman who took the stork parking b/c she looks only about 5 months.
I love this thread!!
When you ask your 3 year old to help pull you up from the couch.
-When you take any excuse not to wear pants.
-You have to mentally prepare yourself to get out of the chair/bed.
-Maternity shirts either cover your belly OR your chest. Not both. (The ones that cover my huge belly make me feel like I'm about to have a wardrobe malfunction. Problems of the not-well-endowed.)
-Socks... Hahahaha!
