Great "Pregnant-Moments" in History:

1. waking up from a 2 hour nap at 2:30pm with a taco bell craving, going to get taco bell only to sit in kroger's parking lot eating it before going in (so, that just happened and i had to laugh while i was doing it) :)
2. trying to strategically dodge people we know while out shopping for preggo/baby stuff before telling people we were pregnant. does everyone we know shop at that target??
3. taking a whole minute going through the enormous effort of trying to flip my giant belly over in bed so i can tell schmoopy that i'm hungry only to promptly fall asleep
4. almost tearing off my toenail on my hospital bags during a return to bed from a "pee trip" in the middle of the night - delaying my pedicure for 2 weeks (that's the real tragedy!)
5. on my last day of work...forwarding a "free pearl necklace" to the MALE director of technical marketing instead of my friend with the same last name. lucky for me he knows me and that i'm suffering from baby-brain and he has a great sense of humor. he just emailed me back saying, "thanks, but i don't look good in pearls :)"
6. going from my last doctor's appointment weigh-in (i gained exactly the top end of my goal weight-gain) directly to the donut shop!
7. making jacob, trish, dakota and chris all stop at chick-fil-a on the way home from a labor day party because me and baby are DYING for a real coke!
8. taking the elevator upstairs to the cafeteria at work to get some breakfast, two guys asked me, "do you know what you're having?" i say "no", because who knows what they want for breakfast before they see what's being served....then i realized they were talking about my ginormous belly and whether the baby inside was a boy or girl....not breakfast. (goes to show where my priorities are when i'm hungry!)
9. surviving all the "how far along are you? wow! that's gonna be a big baby/are you having twins/i don't think you're gonna make it/you're about to pop/etc." comments without throwing anything at anyone :)
10. waddeling around the neighborhood this last week with tilly (i was waddeling, not tilly) trying the make our baby boy come sooner!
i'll have to ask schmoopy if he has any other memorable moments :)
anyone else have something to add??

#8 had me rolling on the floor!

Thanks for sharing! (I'd add some, but I don't have any to offer. Yet.)
