Impossible...

The Pregnancy Diaries

Here are some things that have become impossible for me to do lately in my preggers state:

-bend down to put on my shoes

(or not pull a hamstring by contorting my body to try and do so myself!)

-shave my legs in the shower

-sleep the whole night without heartburn

-go a day without crying buckets (over some significant things, others not so much)

-go a day without thinking up some creative way of making the next seven weeks not seem so far away. For example, I've been counting down till June so I could say, "we're having a baby NEXT month!" (even though it's realistically TWO months away!). Or the classic, "we really only have to countdown to 37 weeks...and that's only five weeks away! And five weeks is really just like a month!"...you get the idea.

Here are some comments that are impossible know how to react to:

(and should NEVER be spoken to a pregnant woman!)

(stranger): "when are due? TOMORROW?!?!"

(me):

                          (crickets chirping...)                                

-OR-

(stranger): "when are you due?" 

(me): "The end of July"

(stranger): "Woa, you still have a looong way to go!"

(me):

(in my head, of course)
