  1. My otherwise well-meaning and lovely father refers to me as being in a "gravid state" (he draws out the "a" which makes it even more irritating)
  2. My otherwise well-meaning and lovely father refers to me as "waddling" (he thinks he's being ironic cos I'm not)
  3. People feel the need to "protect" me because I am in a "delicate" condition by not telling me things.

That's all really. In the general scheme of things, all of minimal importance. But at the moment AAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!! GGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! Angry

Oh God the stretching!! A couple of weeks ago the stretching pains were so bad they were worried I had gone into early labour or had a bad infection and I spent a couple of days on the antenatal ward! That was fun. Not.

Another pet peeve is when people say that the insomnia is there to teach you that you won't be able to sleep properly once the baby is here. That's just bonkers!

Moonlight, when I was pg with DD3, I went into the office of 2 male colleagues. One of them asked how I was and I replied something along the lines of 'Getting fatter every day.'

The other man then scolded me that I was not fat, I was pregnant, and why were women so negative about this? I was pregnant, I had a beautiful bump with my baby in it and I should be positive about it!!

It sounds a little creepy written down like that, but it was actually quite lovely Smile
