- It's easier to get out of bed and lie down again than to "simply" roll over.
- People point and laugh at your belly.
- Other people express disbelief that you're not either overdue or carrying sextuplets.
- Even your closest loved one deems your swollen extremities "unattractive." (Redemption comes in the form of foot rubs!)
- Someone else's child tells you that you look "sorta fat."
- Sleep with a newborn in the house seems more likely than sleeping through the night right now.
But I know that soon enough I'll be nostalgic for this time. Let this post serve as a lighthearted reminder to me of the good ole' days of pregnancy! And now I'm off to bed - just kidding, a lot of good that would do. I'm off to do a little yoga in hopes of restoring some circulation. Then bed!

But the little one who called you "sorta fat" did try to redeem himself, too! :o)
If it helps, Abby has loved your pregnancy! She still plays that she is pregnant with a baby T of her own!
Rob, I think I missed the child's attempted redemption! As I walked away he kept calling after me that I looked "silly."
And in Paul's defense, he's been really fabulous. He gives me lots of reassurance and love and support . . . apparently he just really doesn't like swelling!
I love that Abby's been playing mommy. My girls do, too, but not about T. I'm sort of anti-climactic after my sister's twins, so they're always pregnant with Sam and Lilly. :-)
did you delivery pretty much on your due date with the girls? Take care. xo
Thanks! 4 days "early" with #1, induced 10 days "late" with #2. So we'll see!
