    I've got another one...

    When people at work keep asking you when you start maternity leave and looking astonished when you say "end of Jan".

    i have another one too - a guy from church walked past me the other day and said "you must be a few days overdue by now?" and i said "no, still have a few weeks to go" and he looked shocked and said "really? you look ready to drop" i smiled sweetly and said "thanks" and walked off muttering something about 'how the heck would you know buddy!'

    when you lose food whilest sitting down and your DH points and tells you its "right there" and you have no idea where "there" is as you havent seen your hooharr in a few months.

    wondering why people have 'low rider' cars as you wonder how you'd ever get in/out of one when you struggle with a normal car.

    Ohh and when your cat goes whilest sitting next to your lap becuause a) they dont fit on your lap any more and b) they're getting stroked by something other then your hand!

    And I got another one...

    When you go to the loo, walk out of the bathroom and feel like you have to go again, straight away.

    OP that happens to me all the time.

    Not sure is someone has said this but yesterday i dropped a $2 coin and I just left it there! Could not be stuffed to pick it up.

    Oh an another one- You get a trolley when you go to the supermarket even if you know you are getting only 4 or 5 things so you dont have to carry the basket around. (That might be just me being lazy though!)

    This has been such a funny thread...love it...
    Definitely taking me back.

    Mine were
    - when I found I then had to mop the floor (and change my top) after washing a couple of dishes
    - when I had to roll out of bed and hoped for the best...to land on my feet (we have a rather high bed)
    - when my boss had to point out I've got a little leftover from lunch (a big orange lasagne stain) on my white work provided maternity top (was on the under side of my belly, no way on earth I would've seen it...thank goodness for the dettol and hand dryer in the ladies bathroom)
    - when I would try to squeeze between an office chair and wall - trying to suck the gut in and realising that was not going to help (even worse there was customers and staff watching me)

    and I also remember carrying my mobile everywhere in case I fell over and couldn't get up (not sure who I was going to call though, everyone was at least 30mins aways)
