Pee on about 5 sticks to make sure we’re really really sure that we’re pregnant…
Get super fidgety when you want to tell someone before the 3 month mark, but can’t, even though it’s so darn exciting….
Freak out about how our family and friends will take our news…
If you get morning sickness in your first few months, question why you’re putting your body through this, is it worth it, why does this happen to good people etc…
Pee all the time, even if you haven’t drunk anything, at any time of the day or night. The pee dance kicks into full gear and then it doesn’t matter where you are, who you’re with, by Jo if you need to pee, move out of the way and let me pee, somewhere, anywhere, here…
Get fed up of the constant bathroom breaks. “Are you serious? I went, like 5 minutes ago!”
Get annoyed when randomly people come up to you and touch your tummy…
Get excited at how enormous our appetites are…
Get happy at the stretchy pants and leggings we get to wear, all the time – bliss…
Knowing that from now on you can’t drink normal caffeinated tea as it comes with a hefty price to pay – the bathroom, making decaf your new best friend forever…
Get annoyed when the first feelings of movement feels nothing like butterflies…
But get sneak peaks of what our baby looks like, moving inside us way before anyone else gets to see them…
Get super excited at how great our boobs looks…
Cry at all moments of time, for no reason at all…
Get irritated when your very overactive baby won’t stop playing peek-a-boo with your organs…
Or get really annoyed when your baby is chilled AF and wont move, not even a little bit for you…
Get tired with the constant movements all through the night with a very active baby…
Spend ages trying to perfect the right selfie with your growing bump, then not actually getting your face in it.
Spending hours on end trying to capture your little one kicking inside your bump…
Get super worried that everyone thinks we’re fat, even though we’re glowing….
Get worried that our other halves don’t find us attractive…
Even though they say we look beautiful…
Have plenty of lush mind-blowing vivid dreams of all the gorgeous mouth watering food we’re going to eat after they arrive that we couldn’t eat during pregnancy…
Internally scream when people give their over-the-top detailed story about their childbirth with graphic details and/or pictures…
Deciding on a name and learning not to tell anyone as they’ll destroy it within seconds, deleting it from your list of potentials…
People ask the same questions over and over and over again…
But loving the attention a lot of people give you now that you’re pregnant…
Getting to sleep whenever you can, making it totally acceptable to have naps at any time of the day, because by heck you deserve it….
Counting down the days/weeks/months until the day we meet her/him…
Wondering what’s in store for us next…
