You know you're 35+ weeks pregnant when...

Stephij1 · December 2014

You accidentally drop your pants while putting them on, and seriously consider just stepping out and walking away.

Anyone else?

pleirey · December 2014

When you've had your 5 y/o pick up so much stuff for you that you've dropped that he starts saying "Geez, mom, you are sooooo helpless pregnant. Tell Charlotte I want my fun mommy back!"

sfgiantsgamerbabe · December 2014

When everything requires a grunt. When you get really good at picking things up with your toes.

FTFY.

Haha! The only reason it was even a debate for me is because I have my 36 week appointment today. They're picky about that whole "wait until a nurse tells you to take your pants off" thing. You'd think they'd be more understanding...

Lola918 · December 2014

When every sigh, grunt or even deep breath gets your panicked husband to ask, are you in labor?!

Lanatir · December 2014

You're written a countdown to your EDD on the calendar. And when people ask you how far along you are, you answer with "X days left." haha.

babyzap20 · December 2014

When you have peed yourself and didn't think it was out of the ordinary

FI says I have monkey toes when I pick stuff up with my feet :-D

EmilyA724 · December 2014

When you realize your underwear is inside out, but you've already put your pants on so what's done is done.

Reiden · December 2014

When you're just really freaking tired of the whole getting-out-of-bed ordeal in the morning

Is it a switch that flicks on at 35 weeks of I'm-tired-of-this-shit-and-want-it-to-be-over? I dunno how I'm gonna be even able to roll myself out of bed in five more weeks. Especially sick of the hiccup sessions to the bladder; if I had any inkling of control left of pissing myself, it's definitely gone now.

peggels24 · December 2014

When you realize that your right leg is more limber than your left because you can't wash the bottom of your left foot or get your sock and shoe on your left foot without sweating a little.

MrsFaFa2 · December 2014

When you send your husband a text that says I have a job for you when you get home fro work tonight. He responds what's that? And you send him a picture of the box of 500 q-tips that fell and went all over the bathroom floor. He responds "I love you".

FitmomJess · December 2014

I had red icing on my pant leg but couldn't see it bc my belly was in the way. :-)

GirlWithAnchors · December 2014

When walking a long distance (25 feet maybe?) Makes you breathe like you just ran along Forest Gump across the country. And hills are just a no.

Stairs are beginning to become a no, too

I often don't leave my house because to get down the front porch to the car is 16 steps and a little downhill... With a toddler and her crap, some days it's just not worth it.

So much this... every time I groan getting up off the couch, FI asks, is the baby coming??

kellimark · December 2014

I have a landing between stairs so I walk up 6 stairs take a break and go the rest of the way

peggels24 · December 2014

When you accidentally open your mouth a little and a big ole splash of drool falls onto your shirt and the desk.

susannahbrynn · December 2014

When you decide to have cold feet and just wear flats because, seriously, boots and socks are just way too much effort.

4littlebears · December 2014

When you set something down, turn around, and it's completely disappeared!

When every time you get a contraction you wonder what it's doing downtown, and if you might be dilating right as you're thinking this!

DH and I went out to dinner last night. He questioned my choice of sandals because it was 40* and raining. I told him real shoes were too hard.

I've worn flip-flops wayyy too much for it to be December! My feet (well, just the left one really) are just to swollen for real shoes. Luckily I live in South MS, and it's 66 out right now. The humidity is a whole other complaint in itself though- i should not be this sweaty two days before Christmas!

longcat07 · December 2014

when everyone who talks to you tells you, "you've dropped!" and the best you can do is say, "i know," in a defeated voice, because, let's face it, you don't need a mirror to tell that the baby's head is wedged in your pelvis like a softball.

My mom came to visit and gave me a hard time for the same thing. Sorry, mom, if you wanna put them on me, go ahead.

susannahbrynn · December 2014

When you watch that Kmart commercial with the dancing pregnant women and think "man, second tri was awesome. Back when I could do stuff without looking ridiculous and grunting like a gorilla."

llambrose · December 2014

Everything that gets dropped has to stay there unless someone else can pick it up.

Rolling over in bed hurts.

Standing from a sitting position requires a grunt.

Getting into my SUV hurts and makes me cry for a second.

southernyankeegirl · December 2014

You analyze every liquid in your underwear. Is that mucus plug? Is my water breaking? Nope, it's just normal discharge.

rodiesmum · December 2014

When you can't get out of ur car in narrow parking slots

When you use your toddler as a picking up machine

When u seem to drop random things

When u feel like your hips and back will break each time you stand up, walk and move about in the bed

And sadly for me -- when you cnt sleep a lot

Maebb · December 2014

When you wish your cough would go away because you're tired of peeing your pants.

marvan5 · December 2014

Shaving your lady bits? Ha! Very glad it's winter and I can get away with being a hippy from the waist down!

SSCmomma · December 2014

Socks are waaaay too much work and all shoes must slip on.

SSCmomma · December 2014

You are STARVING every three hours.

Anything you drop on the floor is dead to you.

Your Google history is now full of natural /old wives tales methods of inducing labor.

You have boxes of diapers as a dining room table centerpiece.

It looks like a blind person shaved your lady bits.

You attempted to shave your lady bits?BRAVO, you are my hero today!

shannjohnston · December 2014

When the number of f*cks I give about still being in pjs (because real clothes are too much work), is exactly zero.

CanukMam · December 2014

Came very close to leaving the house in pjama bottoms yesterday

mockasins · December 2014

You cry because your husband is off today and you want to let him sleep in, but someone has to put your socks on for you...

theyazzmatazz · December 2014

You know your 35 weeks + when:
-naps are the greatest thing ever.
-sleeping at night is practically impossible
-pelvic girdle pain is a normal
-when putting on pants socks and shoes is basically a mission and my hubby has to help tie my shoes
-swollen feet makes it impossible to even wear shoes.
-you frequent the toilet more than anything or anyone

eleolin8 · December 2014

When you can't give a urine sample without peeing all over your hands because you can't see where the stream is.

Today, I contemplated getting a bedside commode because it is the most difficult thing ever at this point to walk to the bathroom in the middle of the night due to severe SI joint pain.

When you can't get up from laying on your back after an ultrasound...and then ask your husband to pull the sheet to the side to help you roll on your side first.

GromMom · December 2014

You can no longer cut your toe nails, but you can sit for a pedicure so its not all bad :-) my friend was amazed how my snowman pedicure has lasted for two weeks and its perfect, I told her its because all I've worn is flip flops, no more real shoes for me!

stephaniestangl · December 2014

When the first (of ten) nightly bathroom runs really feels like you should sprint to the bathroom but you use the back of your bed to thrust yourself into a hurried, painful waddle hoping you make it in time. Every night. Like clockwork.
