You know you are pregnant when..... (finish the sentence!)

[Hubbythecatandme]

You know you are pregnant when..... your husband catching you eating two tins of sardines from a bowl and drinking orange juice with it.... It was absolutely delicious if you ask me!

Def second the random groaning as you move and not finding any position comfy. If I dropped a £10 in the street note I would seriously weight the pros and cons of bending to get it!
That being said I love the random acts of kindness/nice smiles people give you! Whilst it's easy to get frustrated when asked the same questions over and over it is so nice that people are interested -
Old ladies smile at you in the supermarket, tell you how exciting/wonderful it all is etc

jollyjelly I agree, a lot of vegetables I absolutely hate these days. Thought spring onion was going to make me sick today, it felt like the taste stayed in my mouth for ages. Can't believe I used to love these :s
drugs fresh strawberry juice sounds lovely. My (French) gran used to always have cherry or strawberry juice (she grew the fruit, cooked the juice and preserved it) for when I got back from school as a kid. Sooo yummy!
emmafreud cupcake vomitting sounds awful... so far only happened twice (although I was nauseous all day several times) and I think I'll never be able to eat the food I vomitted, I feel really disgusted by them now :S
anna hahahaha! I am having weird dreams too... two nights ago I was invited to Prince's farm and he was a serial killer who liked to host designer vintage parties in the middle of cow dung covered floorings... oh and he tried to shove his bits in my nose...... wonder what on earth the cat was doing with his paw at that time!
Is having people wanting to touch your bump annoying??
I am not sure I will like that very much....

I love bump touching (although I wouldn't touch anyone else's without asking!)

When you know the location of every open top bin on your vomit plentiful journey to work.

You know you are cooking a good one when people start tilting their heads, giving you a sympathetic look and asking 'ahh how long have you got left?' Still working on how to react when I say 3 MONTHS and I'm already this big!!

I like being asked about it too, I know they are all inane silly questions but it's nice that strangers go out of their way to highlight that they know you are doing something special! Sometimes I feel so proud of myself and I'm all like, I'm having a BABY, an actual baby that's in here and I'm growing it all by myself!!

When you wake up at 4.30 and find it perfectly normal to start knocking up a lasagne for breakfast

Your mums starts phoning you if you don't reply to a text quickly enough (37 weeks..)
You eat only hula hoops for 8 weeks.
You choose shoes based on their lack of laces alone.
You google "Can you eat ... When pregnant" at least twice a day.
You discover the "no guilt nap".
You try not to gurn at your desk while some lunatic baby plucks your two lower ribs with his toes to avoid scaring non prego colleagues. You fail.

You wee a bit when you sneeze

You cant bend to put on socks or underwear or even trousers

You cry because your dp didnt put a bin liner in the bin or refill the kitchen roll thingy

You lose your memory, suddenly i have lost lots of documents at work!? But im sure someone is hiding them to wind me up

Stairs are not your friend

Your already large breasts become planet sized overnight.

You have lime pickle all over a smoked sausage supper (YUM)

You are sick, or feel sick for the best part of 9 months (DS1, DS2 is currently 5 months and counting )

You are exhausted but lie awake for 3 hours in the middle of the night

Bras hurt and you can't wait to get home from work everyday to take them off or go and sit in the loos for 10 minutes at lunchtime with your bra undone

Every handbag and coat pocket contains emergency 'morning sickness' plastic bags.

You fall over when trying to put your socks on.

Your cupboards are full of random food you couldn't live without yesterday but now make you want to throw up just looking at.

Oh yes I forgot about the plastic bags. Am so used to them being in all my pockets now!

Farts. Really unpleasant FARTS!

OMG I am only week 7 and a half and you ladies are freaking me out about what's coming!
My boobs are already so sore I can't lie on my front anymore, I don't want them to become size of planets :s
And I am already getting up 4 times a night on a bad day so any more weeing and I am going to not be impressed at all :s I swear my kidneys are stretching every time I have had a wee too I can feel this weird sensation in them :s
I loooove talking about pregnancy, babies nowadays (used to be cats!) and I think I am going to be happy when people can see the bump and ask questions about it :)

You take a banana off a colleague's desk with the words "I'm 'avin' that". Their remonstrations are cut off immediately by the The Look. They are afraid. Very afraid.

When even turning around on your sides in bed feels like a great mission

When your clothes waist down are leggings and slip on shoes with no laces! Actually I remember also asking my 2 year old to put mummy's shoes on, as I struggled to bend over!

When you teach your 4 yr old to tie shoelaces cos someone has to be able to reach them

You absolutely HAVE to have your favourite dish from the Indian takeaway, resent the half-hour between ordering it and spooning it out onto your plate, wolf it down and then promptly chuck it all back up again.

When you're horrified at what your bits may look like since you haven't been able to see them since the 25th week of pregnancy.

Pregnancy rage. Enough said.

Jumping out of your seat when your baby uses your cervix as a kicking post.

craving a meal so badly, making it then pushing it aside as the thought of eating it makes you want to vom.

Planning how you are going to get out of bed in the morning.

Installing a TV in the bathroom since I'm in there so often.

Smiling at DH yet secretly wishing he'd throw away that God awful after shave of his.

Looking in the mirror and thinking "How much more can my belly expand?"

Wearing flip flops to school because DS was upset as I was taking too long to put my shoes on.

Finding a good position to sleep in.. just kidding, I don't sleep!

... You get measured for a bra and find that your 32a boobs (I've never had a chest!) now need a 36 DD!

... You lock yourself in the bathroom just by forgetting to unlock the door and stand there jiggling the handle for a couple of minutes without realising

You cannot walk past a public loo without nipping in...

Constantly- weeing, farting, weezing, groaning, crying... Oh and a violent dislike for meat!

Each day starts with 'stretch mark and belly button watch'... Will today be the day the bump explodes?

You swap watching don't tell the bride for every back episode of OBEM you can find. Even the crappy USA version where everyone gets an epidural. Yawn.

Your car seat is set up like a badass, because without it on recline you're crippled by hideous Braxton Hicks all the way to Cardiff and back
