you know you're heavily pregnant when...

Yep, I've had the not being able to get out of/into the car one! Yesterday at the train station I seriously contemplated getting in the passenger side and sliding across, only to realise it would probably end up causing a serious injury!

For me - putting on a maternity top and finding it tight!!!!!!

- ending up with some kind of food dribbled down your belly after most meals
- inability to shave your own legs or bikini line

I'm declaring my "bikini line" legally dead coz I can't see it

...you'd much rather sit on the couch. Fullstop.

[Arimeh]

awwww. ... this is just making me miss my belly!!!!

... when a bloke at work is your official "shoe strap man"

Not being able to sit down gracefully - i just aim and plop.

You groan when trying to put on your undies

Its easier to get out of bed and get back in the other way rather than attempting to roll over

I was on the floor cleaning out my shoes the other day when i realised that i had been sitting there so long that me legs were numb and i was stuck. I couldnt get up and whe i did regain feeling i still couldnt get up cause i didnt leave any room around me to flip to my side to stand up

When you can no longer get into public toilet cubicles without the door hitting you in the belly.

So true to all of them!

- When you can't even reach your shoes (sneakers in my case) to put them on or tie up the laces (I solved this by leaving the laces done up loosely enough to slip them on easily, but still tight enough that they don't go flying off).
- When you can't even get your undies or pants on over your feet without help.
- You can't even see the tips of your toes unless you lean forwards at a dangerous angle thats liable to see you end up face first on the floor (unless you have railings/handholds to hold on to lol)
- You can't sit up/get up out of bed/get off the couch/get out of a chair/get off the toilet without: a) Something solid and firmly connected to the wall to hang on to, b) without leaning forwards at a dangerous angle thats liable to see you end up face first on the floor, or c) your other half there to pull you up and keep you up while you get your breath and/or energy back.
- You don't have the energy to do anything anymore and expect everything to get done all by itself.

oh yea, so many of these apply to me - constantly dribling and spilling food on my self and finding crumbs resting on my bust - which they usally wouldnt cause Im not normally very big.
And like Puppies said about the shower - and as a consequence I think I have bunged the shower door by having to shove it all the way open. Dh keeps telling me not to cause it takes it off its runners, but I cant get in other wise!

And talking of which, when I had a shower the other night and forgot my pjs, so walked down to my room naked. When I walked in, Dh is bed just kind of looked stunned and then laughed. I said 'what?' and he said, 'wow - that was really like watching a bus coming into the room!'


oh, and of course DS comments about how my tummy is so fat, and my legs, and my bum, and my feet and arms and my neck....

These are signs to me that I must be getting quite big now.
