I can still....

lindsladle15 · May 2015

As third trimester women, we can tend to focus on our limitations and what we can no longer do, so want to know your triumphs! What can you all still do?!
Feel free to finish this anyway you like! "I can still...."

Mine are: I can still shave my legs and I can still wrap my towel around my body! ...er, depending on which towel.

I can still pick up my 30# DS, shave, wipe, and nap without guilt.

aliciac2008 · May 2015

I can still SOMEHOW wear my prepregnancy jeans. I'm not sure how since I've gotten huge, but I'm pretty happy about it since I don't really have the money to buy maternity shorts and it's starting to get pretty warm. Now, it's not the most comfortable, but I can still get away with it.

karaelaine1991 · May 2015

I can still carry stacks of books at my internship! Should I be doing this? Eh... that's debatable. But I can! I do make more of an effort to keep the stacks fairly small, though

Serenamarr · May 2015

I can still shave my lady bits, walk 3 miles, sleep through the night, and eat a full meal!

mccall35 · May 2015

I can still shave my legs and lady bits as well.

I can still carry 4 full bags of groceries up from the car (although this one is getting a bit more awkward and challenging).

You are superwoman.

I can still shave my legs, wrangle my 18 month old, and eat. Does eating count?!?!

I can still paint my toes

OnWayto3 · May 2015

I can still touch my toes with my legs straight (not that this is useful, but still...)! I am still teaching middle school students full time.

mrs1374a · May 2015

I can still shave, pick up my 32 lb 3 year old, paint my toes and that's about it. Wish I could say sleep through the night but I haven't done that in over 3 years haha!

Sammy K · May 2015

I can still wear heels.

JessHeppell · May 2015

i can still put my palms flat on the ground with my legs straight, and i can sit up forwards instead of having to roll over. and i can carry 20lbs+ of groceries up a flight of stairs

SammeMotley · May 2015

I can breathe. Barely.

Zeuskay01 · May 2015

Psh....I can still sleep and take naps!

I'm quite jealous of all you ladies that can still shave ...and forget painting my toes or wearing heels. Nope. Not happening! Hahah

lmao... I love this answer. You made my day. I can still mostly breathe. I can still shave my legs (though i've nicked myself several times in the past week so maybe i shouldnt be). I can still sleep through the night (mostly.. usually one pee break). I can still somehow survive NYC subways and NJ Transit and the whole 1.5 hour commute (till next week when i'll work from home till I have this baby).

virginiaunicorn11 · May 2015

I can still get DH revved up! That's enough for me, screw sleep.

HayesRN13 · May 2015

I'm so jealous of you right now lol I'm lucky if I can stand to shave my legs.

dancingram · May 2015

I can still work my full schedule as a hairstylist, eat full meals, play with the dog, do my prenatal yoga, and sit cross legged!

What are you? Superwoman?! I gave up heels a long time ago. Currently wearing nothing but flip flops due to swollen feet.

I'm not sure I can do anything. Lol.

Yes to this!

In addition to still playing grab ass (and then some) with the hubs, I can still wear my wedding rings, speed walk 2 miles, and haul multiple grocery bags in the house in one trip like a BOSS.

alcrimmins · May 2015

I can still shave my legs, get up off the floor (somewhat gracefully), and breathe!

Westypet · May 2015

I can still breathe, too!

Type on my phone, treat heartburn with basic OTC, drive, wear some 2nd trimester clothes, daydream about cleaning things, and I can still pretend like we have forever until baby is due!

kherman14 · May 2015

I can drive without changing my seat in my truck. Many people told me there is no way I can drive my truck without changing the seat!

mypower610 · May 2015

I can still shave my legs, wear my rings, and do prenatal yoga.

dancegurl1118 · May 2015

I can still shave my legs, work 3 12-hour shifts in a row, and provide labor support to my patients. I may feel like dying on my way home...but I can do it.

rsalata2015 · May 2015

Someone already said this. Bend over and put my hands flat on the ground without bending my knees.

ngaines27 · May 2015

I can still shave my legs and wear my rings.

luckyrainbow · May 2015

I can shave my legs, breathe, drive without changing my seat. I cannot eat

moz3518 · May 2015

I'm really jealous of a lot you! Lol I did discover today that I can still shave my legs though.... Barely. Lol

LaurenAnn0405 · May 2015

Shave my legs, kinda shave my lady bits (I didn't realize I had knicked myself this morning until DH pointed it out!), pick up and wrangle my 40 lb DD, work full time (although I am able to sit almost constantly), sleep through the night with only 1 pee break, and I haven't really had any heartburn so I'm able to eat whatever I want

TheNewMrsY · May 2015

I can still run! But there's a lot of other things I can't do!

rsalata2015 · May 2015

Forgot to add stretching my leg straight up past my head. I'm lazy as hell but stretch alot to stay limber.

mommydlc · May 2015

Sit "Indian style" (I know not political correct to say anymore)

Eh, it's how we all know it! In kindergarten teaching world, we call it "criss-cross applesauce." :P

kbbtah · May 2015

I can still laugh at myself and all the stuff I can't do anymore

klkonwi · May 2015

This thread is making me laugh so hard!
I can still......
Wear my rings
And dream every night about my margarita machine.

Otherwise I can't do jack!!!!

janat1717 · May 2015

I can still go on long hikes with the dogs... And shave my legs, actually doing that now that it is warm

My balance has been good too!

raheeb · May 2015

I'm still wearing heels (sometimes) and my rings. Still managing single leg deadlifts and putting on pants. I can also make a bowl of ice cream disappear faster than David Blaine.

Kresla · May 2015

I can still shave my legs, bend over to pick something up, eat a large meal, and wear all of my pre-pregnancy underwear so at least I still feel sexy even when I can't see my toes and I feel huge.

Want a personalized experience?

I can still....
