End of Pregnancy Pros and Cons


The last month of pregnancy is the hardest.  At least for me.  Here is my pro/con list.

Pros:
  • I can use my belly as a table:
  • People are very helpful.  They open doors, let you cut in line for the bathrooms, pick things up off the floor...
  • the expectant mothers parking

Cons:
  • Grunting every time you have to move
  • getting up and down or rotating from side to side is nearly impossible
  • low energy
  • lack of patience (when it comes to my kids)
  • lower back pain
  • the belly is always getting bumped
  • Braxton hicks contractions
  • Tanner has a hard time sitting on my lap when he wants to cuddle.
The cons tend to outweigh the pros.  Luckily we are now just counting down the days, not weeks!
