Y’all. I’m pregnant level “dropped a Bobby pin on the floor and contemplated for a good 30 seconds whether I was going to pick it up or kick it out of the way”.
You guys: DH thought he was funny any made a comment about how I'm already as big as I was with DD1 when I delivered. I'm 27w. And also 17 lbs less than when I delivered DD1. WTF.

@mamak225 I've had those comments from my mom and honestly myself....
I carried small with ds and this one is measuring 4 weeks ahead (measuring 33 weeks yesterday) so honestly a lot of the time I FEEL as big as I did at the end with ds even though in know I'm not quite there yet....I will try to get on my computer for a comparison pic today 😂

Which am I closer to from being pregnant with ds? 26 or 36? Haha
ps 36 was my "biggest looking" bump pic from the whole pregnancy. I looked smaller at 38+5 going to the hospital for the cs. He went breech after that and was so stuck and squished up I think that's part of why I didn't get huge at the end last time.
But ya, I look and feel closer to full term (compared to last pregnancy) than my actual current gestation

@BigBadWolf12 You’re making me want to pull out all my pictures from last pregnancy and figure out what my bump looks like now. I’m 26 weeks today, but I’m thinking I look about 34-35 weeks. Growing at my current rate, I’ll have a full-term sized bump by early to mid June 😩.
@thirdtimesacharm2019 I’m also pregnancy level “do I really have to clean up the spilled milk on the floor?”
On a similar note, I received my first well-intentioned “how much longer do you have?” yesterday (after witnessing me chase my escaping toddler through the library 🤦🏻♀️).
@aecm with twins I bet you're feeling bigger than last time!

I feel every bit as big as the day I had DS2... and as of Monday’s appointment I was only one pound shy... so yeah, looks like this will be another record setting weight gain 😞.
So I finally figured out where I want to go for our babymoon (Bahamas). I tell H. He says, uhhh is that international? I said yeah. He then tells me that he never renewed his passport like I asked him to SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. 🤬
@purplg8r You may want to check. I’ve been on several cruises that stopped in the Bahamas and never had a passport. The last time was almost 8 years ago though.
@purplg8r MH’s passport expired within 6 months of our trip to Greece, and I noticed when I was entering it in for our boat cruise. He had to go to the big passport center in Dallas for a 2 week rushed passport. They’ll only do it if you bring proof of a trip (flight confirmation, etc), so that may be an option?
@purplg8r - I had to do what @heml suggested when I became a US citizen last year and we had a pre-planned trip to Canada a month later. The biggest pain (for me) was getting to a passport agency - the closest one to me is Chicago, which is a 3 hour drive. But the process was surprisingly quick and easy. You make an appointment online, and since I had all my papers in order when I arrived, the process only took about 15 minutes...and my passport arrived probably about a week later. But, like @heml said, you do need to have your travel (airline ticket) booked!
@heml@aecm Looks like the closest one is Miami which is almost 5 hours away. He would never agree to go down there just for a passport. Looks like I have to go research more places for a babymoon
If anyone has not purchased a maternity swimsuit yet I would highly advise against a one piece. I choose it for the “full coverage” (because who wants sunburn on the bump) and hoped it would be easier than trying to keep a tankini together... but boy did I underestimate how hard it would be to shimmy back over my huge bump when wet. I also thought it would still fit for our vacation in June... pretty sure I’m wrong about that also.
@purplg8r - Not that it matters much, but I would be giving DH a severe guilt trip and forcing his hand at planning - AND doing it extra big since he didn't comply with your request from several months ago!

Just wanted to point out that I'm the one who posts the weekly randoms every week and I went and posted on the wrong one. And I also need to admit that the only reason I realized this was because I wanted to look at the GIFs I posted again.................
