Getting Used to Being Pregnant

Thanks for putting into words one of the reasons I'm enjoying pregnancy so much. I'll be 36 weeks Wed, feeling good, and know I will miss being pregnant, not just because it's a selfish pleasure to feel the baby move (at this point, sometimes moving quite grotesquely), but because all these changes really are a blast. I AM used to the weird stuff now- the peeing, the lack of ab muscles, the fatigue, the ridiculously large stomach… I find it so entertaining. Then again, I have always found myself pretty darn interesting.
I'm thrilled to have found your blog, and I look forward to following you after the baby is born, and seeing how you adjust… I'm sure I'll need whatever advice/humor/commentary you are giving!

It WILL come off with nursing. Enjoy how beautiful you look, which, for some reason, is only appreciated by others NOT pregnant, but never by the one pregnant. You look wonderful…just revel in it and buy some cute tops to walk all around town in.

You're absolutely right! With each pregnancy you get used to all kinds of things, what to wear, what to eat, all the sensations. Even how to maneuver around the house so you don't hit your belly on everything!

I have no idea what you said because I was too busy trying to NOT look at your crotch. I may skip the next video you do from that position. ; )

Nice pose! I know, I know, pregnant women have needs too, I get it. Forgot to mention it as one of the perks though…

I am just starting to get used to NOT being pregnant. My profile in the mirror throws me off every time & I can see my crotch again! Amazing!!
My daughter was born four days ago

Yeah, the position of the camera kind of freaked me out. Like I was forced to imagine you pushing the sucker out. Not so nice Cool Mom!

You look fantastic pregnant - it is so not fair! The hubby and I are trying to get pregnant and I have a feeling that a camera won't be allowed in the house for the entire time.

congrats Desiree Fawn on your baby girl! look at you already back on line!
I don't think I even thought of it as labor shot since I will be c-sectioning it.
