Note to self - read 25 Great Things About Being Pregnant in the final months.

Faves:
2 - People look at your stomach and can't help smiling, as if the mere thought of your being pregnant has actually made their day a little bit brighter.
Can only hope that's true. I know I smile at others.

5 - Getting to name another human being.
LOVE this part although the naming can be a challenge at times.

6 - Watching your husband turn into a father when he kisses your belly good night.
This is just too sweet to explain.

10 - The amazing anticipation. It's like all your previous birthdays and holidays rolled into one.

14 In the middle of a boring meeting at work or a meaningless argument, you feel your baby squirming inside you and the sensation takes you away. It's your own secret communication.
Definitely. Even at 4am.

15 Getting to hear the swish swish swish of your baby's heartbeat on the Doppler.
Ditto. Although, I wonder how it sounds with natural hearing compared to hearing aid hearing.

17 - The extra attention you get from everyone -- your husband gives you more foot rubs, and your friends call to check in more often. Neighbors offer to help; coworkers volunteer to get lunch for you; little presents (a bottle of water, an afternoon snack) mysteriously show up on your desk.
A co-worker was a darling! She got me a much needed drink and from the place I love getting his particular drink from and wouldn't let me pay her back. All I was asking if someone was going to pick up lunch for herself and to grab me something... but no, she went to the place I mentioned in passing.

Gotta comment:
3 - You can eat a whole pint of chocolate-chunk ice cream and not feel guilty. Every night.
Wrong-o! Just celebrated a few birthdays with three more on the way -- and still feel guilty about the desserts. Can just see them filling the places that won't shrink after delivery.

8 - Buying a bathing suit. It's not about hiding your flaws; it's about flaunting your belly.
Brahahahaha! Sorry, bub... still have flaws sticking out as much as the belly.

13 - You eat healthier, drink more water, and carefully read ingredient labels. Suddenly, it matters more to you what you put in your body.
Uh, no. The only major change I make is stop drinking coffee. It's hard enough to get in the mood to eat certain things.

16 - Playing "Guess the part sticking out," usually at bedtime, when your baby starts moving furniture around or whatever it is he does in there.
After two and one-half pregnances... I never could figure out one part from the other.

19 - Getting to skip to the front of the line in public rest rooms.
Never happened.

It's a little sad knowing this is the last pregnancy. Trying to be patient and enjoy each day despite discomforts. Roughly four months until I meet someone new... but also the same amount of time until I gotta get back in shape.
