I am 9 months pregnant!! woohoo!



Things Nobody Told Me About Being Pregnant:

Nobody told me that:
1. Shaving would require the flexibility and stamina of a gymnast.
2. I would practically pee myself when I get a swift kick to the bladder.
3. My feet would swell up before I even put on my shoes.
4. A busy day out would wear me out before I finished putting on my makeup.
5. I wouldn't just gain weight in my belly, I would gain it in my face, arms and butt, too.
6. I would get sick of people asking me, "When are you due?" everywhere I go.
7. I would get sick of people looking at my stomach instead of my face when they talk to me.
8. My hands would swell so much that it hurt to wear rings let alone bend my fingers.
9. Jeff would be an expert on words like "dilated" and maybe just symptoms in general.
10. I would have to search online for an industrial strength maternity bra.
11. Chipolte, Mashed Potatoes, and fruit would never taste so damn good.
12. I would be up in the middle of the night several times, BEFORE the baby came.
13. I would long for the day I could wear pants that zipped up.
14. I would worry about the day my baby started driving, dating, etc. before I even saw her.
15. My nose would be constantly stuffy or running.
16. I would require naps, not just want them... NEED them!
17. I would spend hours staring at my stomach watching and feeling her move.
18. I would love her more than anything in the world, long before she was born
