So I have officially lost all sense of my personal body space.\u00a0 I have no idea what the physical size of my body is and I am constantly bumping into things.\u00a0 I feel like my belly is functioning more as a bumper than anything right now.\u00a0 Even when I\u2019m not trying to \u201csqueeze\u201d by things or other people I\u2019m still constantly bouncing my belly off of things like door frames, chairs, and sometimes even Honeybun’s head (miraculously Sugarplum can still walk fully upright under my belly).<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t remember having so much trouble with Sugarplum, maybe because we had more maneuvering space around the furniture in our Dublin house.\u00a0 With Honeybun though, I remember having the same problem.\u00a0 I was constantly trying to squeeze through places that I definitely could not fit through anymore.\u00a0 Instinctually you suck in your stomach and try to go sideways through tight spaces but this is totally impossible while hugely pregnant! \u00a0Right now I\u2019m actually better of going straight through rather than turning because I\u2019m pretty sure my hip width is less than my bum to belly width which is kind of weird to think about.<\/p>\n
I also have this weird heat phenomenon that I don\u2019t remember with the previous two.\u00a0 I get really nervous cooking and ironing because in order to be able to reach what I\u2019m doing my belly gets really close to the stove\/ironing board.\u00a0 I can feel the heat on my belly but aside from bending over to move my belly away (which is a back killer) I can\u2019t move back farther to avoid the heat.<\/p>\n
Ah, the joys of pregnancy. \u00a0Hopefully only a few more days\/weeks and my body will be back down to more manageable side (and hopefully I won’t be cooking or ironing for awhile…)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
