What silly things do we all do when pregnant?

juliew2561 · Nov 9th, 2009, 10:59 AM

Ok so I am at work and feeling bored so I thought I would start up a thread to talk about the things we do when pregnant... Please add to the list...

1) Bore the pants off anyone who is willing to listen to baby talk
2) Prod and poke the baby just to provoke a movement (How cruel!)
3) Eat like an obsessed woman, shovelling food in as quick as poss due to a feeling of total starvation!
4) Convince the DH that you need to buy things that you probably dont actually need (I'd make such a great sales person now with the bullshit I have been coming out with!)
5) Still checking the toilet paper everytime I visit the loo
6) Claiming I need to "Rest" every night just when it happens to be time to cook dinner but deal or no deal is on!
7) Excessively using baby and bump whilst at work!
8) Wanting as big a bump as poss (We all do it!) Mine happens to be tiny though!
9) Telling DH to feel the bump every single time it kicks only to find that bubs wont kick for Daddy!
10) Stuffing treats into your bag every time you leave the house (I went to the hairdressers on sat and packed a banana, a flake and a bag of crisps!)

Oh the list is endless - is any of this sounding familiar?

Can relate to quite a few of those, although I'm quite happy with my bump staying nice and neat.

First one that comes to mind that you've not got.....

- talk to your bump (ok at home but in public you just seem a bit mental!)

When I am on my own I sing at the top of my voice, I'd be so embarrassed if I got caught! I make the DH talk to the bump but he blushes and feels daft - its really cute!

I have always liked deal or no deal but absolutely LOVE it now, I suppose its cos I stay in so much more. I watch it on More 4 at just after 5 when I get in from work. The Camp Geordie bloke last week was lovely!

Can relate to all of these but now bump is so big it gets in the way of everything so would happily trade for a smaller one and I cant stuff my face anymore, no room.
