Advice

Just a word to the men out there, because women don't normally tend to do this.

Never NEVER ask a pregnant woman if she is sure she isn't having twins. Most likely by the time she looks that big, she probably knows. And she will not particularly care to be reminded that her stomach is bigger than she has ever seen it and she can't see her toes when she is standing up.

And perhaps if you are going to GUESS her due date is very close, instead you might ask her when she is due.

Just a little advice. Take it or leave it. But remember, pregnant women can be very cranky. Some pregnant women carry small, others carry big. It's a genetic thing I suppose.

By the way, I've put on approximately 30 lbs so far, but it's alllllll baby weight. No extra weight anywhere else believe it or not. I will be happy to be able to reach my toes again. I miss them. I will be happy to be able to sleep in any position I choose again. I miss sprawling all over my husband to keep warm. I will be happy to bend over and pick things up off the floor that I drop. Right now, if it falls, it stays there until Mike comes along and picks it up. But mostly, I will be happy to have a healthy happy baby in my arms. That will make it all worthwhile.
