lol, Rachel at the end of her pregnancy

[madringal]

I love super pregnant Rachel! I love when she mocks Ross when the are eating the spicy food and says "Make looove to me."

[isabel]

It's so perfectly true.

My maternity wardrobe is all long sleeves, but it got warm here in the last week or two and I only have one short sleeved maternity shirt. I've been wearing some of my longer target shirts. They mostly fit, but still show my belly because they ride up easily. I give no fucks. And I have been so damn crabby the last couple of days. I've been really great mood-wise up to this point. This kid needs to get out of me.

I dropped my keys in trader joe's a few days ago. I was wearing a maxi skirt and I was bending down to get it and I totally remembered Rachel bending over to pick up the fork. I also wondered if anyone was rolling eyes at me like Ross was, lol. Such a funny scene.

[ProfessorArtNerd]

Hahaaaa, I already feel like I have no room. Omg I'm annoying myself!

[betsyray]

I did laugh when she says her water breaks but then she stands up and her skirt is dry. I was definitely...not dry.

Even with the torso reclining her butt is up in my chest!

I'm calling BULLSHIT on this dropping/lightening everyone keeps telling me is going to happen.

Right!? My heartburn is worse than ever. There's honestly nowhere for him to drop. And he's still wedging his butt under my ribs.

I underestimated how hot I would be at the end and bought like 4 tshirt a month before I gave birth.

I did okay with room in my torso because my kid was sitting SO low. I could hardly walk though.

[pooh8402]

I'm only 25 weeks and already reclining so I can breathe.

[nsl]

My ribs felt bruised for 6 months after giving birth to DS 1 because he wedged himself under there for so long. I can still pinpoint the exact spot that he liked to kick the most, and he's going to be 8 years old this summer.

[cheeseandcrackers]

Yeah my baby loves spreading out...or she will be long, one of the two lol

[isabel]

If, in a couple of years, I decide I want another kid, someone needs to drag this thread back up for me. I have not enjoyed being pregnant, but I can already tell the bad memories are fading. I don't know if I really want to do this again.

I was talking with a lovely, very pregnant friend at work today - about her maternity leave. She has a bad cold and is very miserable. Lord, I felt so so so much sympathy for her. Late pregnancy, no meds was THE WORST. 

[junebug]

The end is so rough! I had a head in my rib cage until 39 weeks. Omg, I was so uncomfortable. Leaning back didn't help, but laying down sucked too. You just can't get comfortable, and you're hot and grumpy... Oh man.

Late pregnancy is the absolute worst.  I always inwardly chuckle when a FTM is all "30 weeks! Almost there!" Lol, just no honey.  The last 10 weeks feel just as long as the first 30.  Heck, the last 2 feel just as long as the first 30! 

And I signed up to do it again

What? No. From about 20 weeks to 35 was so freaking long. It just draaaagged. These last couple have been no cake walk, but never once did I feel like I was close at 30 weeks. Hell, I still feel like this is never going to happen. Longest weeks of my life. Lol

Also, I truly feel like I may sleep more with a newborn. I was up literally every hour to pee. So fucking tired.

I called in sick on my due date because I couldn't handle going to work. TBS decided to air all of the "Rachel at the end of her pregnancy episodes" THAT day! It was terrible! Didn't she go like two weeks late and have the LONGEST most miserable labor ever? I just remember she went through like five roommates (including Janice!) and they all had babies while she made zero progress. I was so upset by the time my husband got home because I seriously thought this baby would never come out of me! Thankfully he was ONLY six days late and I ONLY had a thirteen hour labor. I watched some of those episodes recently and it's easy to laugh at now but I don't recommend watching them when you're actually experiencing it!
