Today marks the beginning of the third trimester of my pregnancy. I know how uncomfortable things get from previous experience so I am trying to just enjoy my semi-comfort now. But when people ask me how I am feeling…I definitely can no longer say “great!”
So just for humor’s sake…I thought I’d make a pregnancy list.
You know you’re in your third trimester of pregnancy when….
1. You have to roll onto your side to get off the couch
2. You can’t see your legs/feet.
3. You classify yourself as a waddler or a lumberer instead of a walker.
4. You talk to your belly.
5. You sigh a lot when you get up or sit down.
6. You pee your pants a bit when coughing or laughing hard.
7. You drink lots of water…and then regret it when you have to pee…again….five minutes later.
8. It takes you a full three minutes to roll over and get all the pillows readjusted on your other side in bed at night.
9. Your face starts getting fat. (People who love you will lie to you and tell you it’s not…but then after you are no longer pregnant they will tell stories about how fat your face was)
10. You have to have a wide “stance” when sitting in a chair.
I could go on…and perhaps I will…but for now that is enough.
