bloody rude if u ask me!

xxxxxxx

I don't understand why we can't use the M&B parking spaces...especially in the later stages.

I can't get in and out of my car easily either

And putting shoes on is a joke! I hadn't realised, because with the warm weather i'd been slipping my flip flops on and off with no problems, then the rain arrived and i had to actually tie my shoe laces and my god, it was hard work!

And rolling over in bed takes far too long considering how easy it used to be. Sex hasn't yet become too tricky but i do get a little paranoid when i'm on top that i'm probably crushing OH and he's just too kind to say anything!

either my arms have shrunk or the floor is playing tricks on me....if I drop something and its not important, it'll stay there untill hubby comes along and picks it up!lol

I'm so glad I'm not the only one finding certain things abit more difficult!

My bump isn't that big but I have always been a skinny person so to me it feels weird! I noticed the other day that I now can't bend down to pick things up I have to squat (oh so attractive!)

And I can't lean forward anymore because it puts too much pressure on my stomach and diaphram!

Oh and don't get me started on sex, leg cramps are a real mood killer

I'm starting to find things more difficult now too.
As others have said, just having a shower, ours is over the bath so you have to get in and out of the bath to use it, is becoming a nightmare.
I'm worried I'll fall when in shower or getting in and out, especially when I'm bigger later on.
Everything feels such a struggle, must be the extra baby weight. Also I'm finding moving round in bed a struggle, I'm considering getting silk sheets so I can slide round, ha ha

Rolling over in bed is my biggest problem, I find that I now wake up and actively change sides, instead of just wriggling in my sleep.

As for the parking issue ..... Tesco give you their Parent & Child car sticker when you join the club (even when pregnant), so I certainly park in their P&C spaces when I can (but never taking the last one). I also figure that having the sticker entitles me to park in Sainsbury's P&C spaces too (sneaky but what the heck, there aren't any signs saying what their rules are); and Asda here have specific Mum & Bump spaces for expectant mums (as well as P&C spaces). Failing that, I find myself going for parking spaces at the end of a row now.

As for sex - well, I've always preferred to be on top anyway, so we're continuing with that for the moment
