Observations on This Whole Pregnant Thing

And here they are, in no particular order:

*Somewhere a porn star is missing her breasts.

*I'm terrified of putting on real shoes, your feet spread like pancakes in a hot griddle and haven't worn anything but flip flops in over 2 months.

*Feet? Wait, I was able to see my feet two months ago?


*Painting my own toenails WAS my major accomplishment for the day, yesterday. And man did I feel good about it. Good and tired.


*Any magazine with "baby" in the title will grace your coffee table, and you won't be the one who picked it up off the news stand.

*You will at one point have to tell a relative to STOP buying baby clothes. At least until the baby's born. Baby's not wearing them out like crazy at this point.

*No matter how many practical, low-priced baby gear items you put on your registry, you will receive at least half a dozen silver plated birth certificate holders. And, like all sane people, you will eventually put your kid's birth certificate in the fireproof strong box with the passports, anyway.

*Touching a pregnant woman's stomach is thought to bring good luck. I think it also brings broken fingers.

*A college-educated, intelligent woman will spend hours pouring over consumer information regarding the pro's and con's of the latest model of fisher price potty.

*Anything makes me cry. Anything. Nothing. "Everybody Loves Raymond", for instance.

*Your stomach will vibrate, swell, and undulate like that famous scene from "Alien", and you'll think it's the coolest thing in the world.

*When I cry at "Seinfeld", I should probably be medicated.

*Going to the bathroom upwards of 14 times in one day... is a GOOD day.

*A good night = only 3 bathroom trips, by the way.

*I actually got sick of talking about baby stuff about 3 days before my mother. Yes, it does happen. And the next morning you wake up normal and in an estrogen-induced baby craze again.

*I ate a nice big dinner, a nice big snack, and I still want food. You pretty much always want food.

*I've lost 10 pounds in the past 2 months, and yet, I pretty much always want food.

*Except when the thought of food sends you packing. Like when you gag into the sink when your husband asks what you want for breakfast.

*You're sweating while you're shuffling around the air-conditioned mall at 1 mph, and hey, if that isn't "light to moderate excercise", what is?
