There are so many glorious advantages of being pregnant... Anytime I don't want to do something DH says "You don't have to you're pregnant, I understand." I don't have to suck in my gut anymore. No more AF!!! People always offer me their seat now. Heck, people even offer me food now. My kids are more helpful. I can nap anytime I want. My boss is more lenient with me for clocking in late almost every morning. There are perks here!!
1) My husband is even more amazing than he was before, which I didn't know was possible because he's seriously the biggest sweetheart.
2) When I visited my parents and my 8 siblings I wasn't the big sister that had to take care of everyone, I was the pregnant big sister that got waited on by everyone, including my parents! I've waited 26 years for this!!
Yay! Also, I did use an expectant mother spot yesterday because it's over 100 degrees with 100% humidity and the next closest spot was two miles away and around the corner. Ain't no pregnant woman got time for that!
^^ this. I used one going into Babies 'R Us the other day. Some older woman looked at me funny so I smoothed my shirt down around my stomach and showed off my bump. She walked off quietly.

I've been using these everywhere they're available.
1. I have a baby that looks young enough to get away with it.
2. I haven't felt like messing with renewing my handicap placard.
My boobs are AMAZING!! Like prebaby, pre 2 years of breastfeeding amazing. It's like I took a time machine back to my 20s. We are def enjoying them around here.
Besides everything everyone else has said, I didn't have to move my office at the end of the week....they wouldn't even let me carry a small box...so I left an hour early and no one said a darn thing! ☺️
having coworkers chase after me whenever I pick up a box at work, regArdless of how small it is. I apparently turned into a delicate flower overnight! Also, DH has been awesome about making dinner when I'm too tired after work.
I agree with everyone else's and I gotta be honest, I'm kinda liking the attention. People ask me all the time how I'm doing, DH and a guy at work won't let me pick up anything, I don't have to feel guilty about not jump on the trampoline with my nieces anymore, and the whole party that's about me and my growing uterus is pretty awesome.
~Hubby has been in the kitchen with me a lot more and discovering he's enjoying cooking more than he thought he would! Plus he's a really fast learner. I may have someone to take over cooking duties once in a while. Still have to hand hold a little bit around raw meat and things but he's more willing than ever to be in the kitchen with me cooking or prepping without getting in the way 'watching'.
~Also stretchy bands...I never experienced the joy of maternity pants, these are awesome, I now have 'bloaty day pants' wooo!
~Munching all day long without someone asking 'are you bored eating', I often graze eat so this is nice to be encouraged even more into eating many small portions of varying food through the day.
~Not having to clean anything with a funky smell. If the dishes need washed and it has a smell, hubby takes over for me so I don't end up sick.
I have to agree with the comfortable clothes! I am also loving the big ass tata's, but I'm still craving really healthy stuff. I had fresh broccoli and carrots for breakfast. Oh well. I guess that's nothing to complain about!!

Do I really have to decide?
Now we're at my in laws for the second part of our babymoon and they keep feeding me.
It brings me so much joy.
