You drop part of your snack on the floor and almost cry over both the lost snack, and that you couldn't get down to pick it up even if you wanted to...
ETA: but instead of shoes, skittles. It was sad.

... you're eating a turkey burger and your belly acts as a catch all for the juices dripping down. And you're not even mad because it means you don't have to bend over and clean it off the floor.
Start thinking of ALL the ways you can get labor started!! (DD is in 2 days!) or wearing the same basketball shorts and t shirt for the past week+ cause it's what fits and is comfy.
At work you are perfectly upfront about the fact that you are no longer going to be making yourself crazy trying to meet deadlines, and people are cheering you on for having that stance.
When you get four different texts from four different people every day asking "heeeeey, how are you doing?" And you know all they're asking is "have you pooped out that baby yet?".
When you're effing tired of this conversation: when are you do? the 14th you know what you're having? no did you find out with your daughter? yes oh, I could never not find out (I don't care.)
Doing laundry every other night because you only have 2 work outfits and pajamas that fit...
Also being so miserable sitting at a desk all day that you are really contemplating taking leave for the rest of the pregnancy (except you have no idea how much longer that will be!) and your OCD tendencies are killing you because you can't calculate it exactly to see how it will affect your total leave plan for the rest of the year. uurrgghhh

This was me soooooo much last time! "I'm such a planner, I need to know" was the more common reasoning I would get. Hellllllo people I'm a freaking type-a, secondary teacher- planning is my life. It felt good to not have something "planned" for a change. You buy gray and green shit, crisis solved...

Yup, baby's room is green and is Dr. Seuss themed. Most of the newborn clothes are girly but whatever. If baby is a boy, I'm pretty sure he won't care if he's wearing pink.
- When you hear "oh, there's no way your going to make your due date! You're totally going to go early!" for the 50,000th time. - When you try to roll over in bed at night, or worse, get up to pee and gravity takes over and you literally scream because it hurts so bad... or worse, when your pubic bone pops as easily as if you were cracking your knuckles (Thank you, f*cking PSD.) - When you have people coming over and you have every intention of just telling them to close their eyes so they can't see the pile of dog hair your mutt shed all over the floor, because you can't bring yourself to drag out the vacuum. - When trying to shave down below and your certain that you wind up looking like a Sasquatch who tried to groom with a broken beer bottle...
The hip pain makes you question whether you are pregnant or an 80 year old. Is that pee or did my water break? Same with is it gas or a contraction? You can't go to the grocery store/gas station/ ANY PUBLIC PLACE without someone asking how much longer you have.
You are silently willing a poor sap to make a snarky/snide comment to you because your pregnancy rage is so real right now... And you have lost all f*cks to give...

This. So much this. I lol'd and showed DH, I needed that laugh!
You're going through 3 pairs of underwear a day, and you're not sure if it's because of pee, mucous, or swamp ass because they're all equal contenders and it doesn't matter anyway.
Re: You know you're still pregnant when...
People at work keep asking why you're still around and you're not even offended

You're three am pee break is also a snack break, because god forbid you make it through the night without eating something.
Is that pee or did my water break? Same with is it gas or a contraction?
