The Undie Waddle...


Somehow as my belly has gotten bigger and rounder, I have slowly lost my ability to keep my preggo undies on. The curve of my belly actually seems to encourage them to slowly inch their way down.

Today I found myself crossing the baseball field at Elijah's school while pushing the double stroller when my preggo undies decided to rebel and start working their way down. I'm wearing one of my favorite maternity dresses and absolutely surrounded by other parents and little kids so there is no freaking way possible I can pull them back up to a more secure location.

I try to continue walking as if nothing is wrong..... but in the meantime I am clutching my thighs together with all my might to try to keep those undies from completely falling off but they are still sinking lower and lower down my thighs.

Things are getting dicey and I realize I need to act soon or else I'll be losing my undies in in the middle of the baseball field.

I ever so slyly throw Phoebe's toy over towards the baseball dugout so I would have a reason to take cover by the dugout and hopefully get a sliver of privacy. I duck into my little makeshift shield of half stroller- half dugout and yank those damn preggo panties back up where they belong.

I start patting myself on the back for a job well done........... until I look behind me and realize that my undie waddle/ adjustment had been quietly observed and laughed at by two Dad volunteers/p.e. teachers standing behind the equipment locker.

Seriously.... Kill me now.

30 weeks pregnant.... 10 to go....


This pregnancy has been a total whirlwind. I'm sincerely shocked by how quickly this has all flown by so far.

In any given day I range from feeling excited to apprehensive about how our newest little addition will fit into our family. I can't help but get a little jittery from time to time about being so outnumbered. But above all other feelings and thoughts I just feel incredibly blessed.

Getting Poochier by the Day...

I'm starting to look like I'm smuggling some extra bagels under my shirt. It's pathetic that it just looks like I'm getting fatter. Not even pregnant. Just pudgier.

It's become uncomfortable to get dressed for the day. All my pants are too tight but really all my maternity pants are all too big and would just fall off if I were to wear them. I'm down to one pair of stretchy sort of jeans I scrounged up that look like they will be stretched to hell and back again before I'm ready to give them up.

I hate this awkward in between stage of pregnancy. I'll actually be totally relieved when I look actually pregnant instead of looking like a marshmallow that was microwaved for 15 seconds.
