Things I can no longer do...

Image
- see my feet or nether region (blessing in disguise)
- turn over in bed without groaning like a heffalump (seeeexy)
- go a night without peeing at least 4 times and evidently ending up toilet paper-less 1 out of 4 times
- get my wedding ring off (yes, I have hands like Homer Simpson)
- satisfyingly wee (damn shame that one)
- stay awake for more than 5 seconds when horizontal (bloody brilliant if you ask me)
- put lace up shoes on (au revoir exercise, clearly sobbing)
- stop eating.... anything
- stop buying little boys clothes (am loving H&M, and the fact that GAP has just opened)
- have 3 lovely ladies to stay for 4 days, attend an amazing wedding and surrounding events without then, quite literally, passing out with exhaustion for 48 hours afterwards
- dance on a dance floor (sober) without continuously losing my balance and looking like the inappropriately drunk heavily pregnant one
- feel remotely attractive
- stop thinking about sinking some serious champagne and sushi post-babe
- fit into any sort of pant bar a black legging
- guarantee I won't wet my pants when I sneeze (clearly my favourite).

Obviously a fabulous stage of pregnancy I'm in. Fabulous....

Well it is actually. At almost 34 weeks there's a lot of satisfaction in knowing that if JP Chang (aka the baby) was born right now, he'd be fine and a healthy 2.8kg. Yes, he's already 2.8kg. I know. I think the word my OB used was MASSIVE. Brilliant. "You won't have a problem pushing him out with those hips". Double brilliant.

Your pelvicly-blessed Tai Tai* xx

*Who is promising more blog activity in the coming weeks ;) Promise.

I'm right behind you at 33 weeks with a 2.6 kg babe. You say massive, I say normal :) Thanks for a good laugh on an otherwise dreary, preggo-pants-falling-down day!

Not long to go now!
D was born at 33 weeks and 2kg, so that is one BIG boy.

So glad to hear all is well. Cherish every moment of this time. The connection the gait and all the blessings of fecundity. xx
