So, with a big accessory -also known as a belly- things can get pretty unfortunate and uncomfortable around here. There seems to be a few things that just can’t be done because you simply can’t reach.
Good luck trying to paint your toe nails, because you just can’t reach.
For that matter, good luck trying to cut your toe nails, it’s the most awkward thing, because you just can’t reach.
Shaving your legs might be a thing of the past, I’ve tried shaving my legs many different ways – it can be difficult to balance on one leg and bend over, but try to make sure you’re pregnant during the cold months because you just can’t reach.
Do you wear shoes that have laces, or any other shoe that you can’t just slip on? Well, now you don’t. Bending over to tie your shoes feels like you’re bending your baby in fourths (fourths because they are pretty much in half already -poor babies). It hurts and you get all out of breath and finally you realize that you just can’t reach.
Putting on socks, or pants for that matter, starts getting pretty tricky too. You’ll find that sitting down works best, but just the other day I had to ask Brand to help me put on my pants one day… tmi? Really though, I just couldn’t reach!

January 16, 2015 at 12:08 amI know it must be a pain but that all sounds totally adorable!
Alyssa says
January 16, 2015 at 12:19 amOh my goodness you look so sweet! The last month is excruciating, I hope the rest of the time flies by for you 🙂

January 16, 2015 at 12:59 amYou are just belly! So cute.
Alyssa says
January 16, 2015 at 1:22 amHaha! I literally laughed out loud because I can totally relate! With my first I didn't have any problems doing any of those things. At 40 weeks I even painted my own toe nails! But with my second, forget about it. I think my husband had to help me with my shoes by 8 months. I think it must have been where the babies hung out while inside.

January 19, 2015 at 6:25 amI remember ALL of that. Lucky for me, I wore lots of flip flops. We live in L.A.
It seriously looks like you just have a basketball under your shirt. How adorable.

January 21, 2015 at 4:18 pmI am just getting to that point at 29 weeks. It's not so bad yet, but I can feel it coming every time I bend down. Haha.
Alyssa says
January 22, 2015 at 7:25 pmYou are so cute! I was down to wearing the same three outfits at the end – nothing else fit or it was too hard to get on!
Alyssa says
January 26, 2015 at 10:41 pmHahaha.. .this was a cute post. Yup, I surely remember those days. People take it for granted that they can paint their toes, but talk to a very pregnant mama, and you easily see that we should not be taking it for granted.
