Thoughts as we round the final stretch.

By cg-c, esq.

1. Stretch marks are of the devil. All the books are right; it doesn't matter what product you use. If you're going to get them, you're going to get them.

2. It really sucks to get winded from walking up a hill or a flight of stairs.

3. Swelling feet and hands are also of the devil. I've been reduced to wearing running shoes every day.

4. You get to a certain point where it doesn't matter what you wear or how much effort you put into your look for that day, you feel like a beached whale/water buffalo/brick house.

5. Pregnancy hormones - also of the devil. I went to see Juno this afternoon and it made me sob like, well, like a pregnant woman.

6. Heartburn is also OF THE DEVIL.

7. I never liked plain M&Ms until about 1 month ago. Now I can't stop eating them.

8. I really, really, really miss drinking red wine.

9. My Labor & Delivery classes have done nothing but make me terrified of what's coming in April.

10. I'm REALLY ready to not be pregnant anymore. I'm not ready to actually have a baby, but I'm totally ready to not be pregnant.

11. I sincerely hope that Angelina Jolie gets stretch marks. And I truly do mean that because pregnancy hormones have made me evil.
