being pregnant is funny - 06:33 PM
a random list of things which i've thought &/or said while pregnant:
- "i wonder if my breasts will ever look the way they did before?"
- "oof! grunt grunt, mumble, grunt! oooff! ... aaaaaaaahh." as i roll over in bed.
- "my fingers looks like little pork sausages."
- "i wonder what this is? ouch! okay, i guess it's attached," as i tried to pull off one of the many little strange tags of skin or mole things which have grown all over my boobs.
- "it's just like in aliens!" as rudegere moves around inside my belly as though he's about to burst through the skin.
- "surely my belly couldn't possibly get any bigger!?" said at twenty-four weeks, twenty-eight weeks, thirty-two weeks ..
- a big coughing fit, then a startled look on my face, followed by a longish pause & "i can't believe i just did that," as warm liquid slowly trickled down both legs. thankfully i was at home .. & alone.
- "hooray for braaaxton hicks! la la-la la-la la-la, la la laaa!" sung to the tune of 'hooray for hollywood'.

My opinion on your random thoughts:
No, your boobs will never be the same, they're about to feed a little human. I miss my boobs too.
Rolling in bed will get harder before it gets easier.
Don't eat your little pork sausage fingers, you'll regret it.
Leave the skin tags alone, they should diminish post-pregnancy. Or you'll have to get them removed if they stay and bother you.
Aliens. They got the inspiration from pregnant women.
It's gonna get huge!
Have you been doing your pelvic floor exercises? Nothing worse than a full bladder and coughing/sneezing...very embarrassing!
Braxton-Hicks...um, I didn't get them until well near the end...oh except when we were walking around the Blue Lake. Nothing like a jogger coming towards you when you're crouched on the ground breathing through some pain. You can just sense that they are wondering if they should ignore the pregnant lady, run in the opposite direction, or help. I just grinned and waved them on!

LOL @ Angelas comments
I don't think any of us realise, when we say "I want a baby" just what that will mean to the rest of our lives
