35/35

In honor of me being 35 weeks with 35 days to go I am going to do a quick 35 things pregnancy has taught me.

1. Every pregnancy is different.
2. Old wives tales are just that...old wives tales.
3. You learn to hate the words Just you wait.
4. My husband is actually a good house cleaner.
5. There is such thing as heartburn.
6. Every pregnancy is different.
7. Don't let people bully you into doing something you dont' want to do just because it's the rage.
8. You have to set boundaries with your mother in law and sometimes your own mother.
9. Sunkist and Sun Drop make baby girl wiggle around in the belly.
10. Every pregnancy is different.
11. Sometimes pregnancy can make you a lot more sarcastic.
12. Little things that never bothered you before can grate on your nerves now.
13. It's good to write things down whether in a journal, on a blog, or just in a note because pregnancy brain can really affect your memory.
14. Husband's don't get why we want things just perfect for baby.
15. You feel like an 80 year old at the tender age of 29.
16. My husband can cook.
17. OCD kicks into overdrive.
18. Every pregnancy is different.
19. You can't take simply getting up off the couch or out of bed or out of a car for granted when you have a big old belly.
20. People lose their filters with pregnant women.
21. If you are having a little girl the clothes are hard to resist.
22. For nine months the only thing that consumes your brain is baby stuff.
23. People are generous.
24. Unsolicited advice is just part of the territory.
25. Every pregnancy is different.
26. You get thirsty a lot. Sometimes I can't get enough to drink.
27. They think that all pregnant chicks like flowers and bows on their clothes.
28. Long tshirts are your friend when that belly appears.
29. No question is stupid.
30. You have to have a sense of humor, even when you don't feel like it.
31. Take advice with a grain of salt, and remember what works for someone else may or may not work for you.
32. You have to use common sense.
33. Not everyone wants to know every detail of your pregnancy. Learn to talk about other stuff as well.
34. It's okay to feel overwhelmed.
And finally...
35. Every pregnancy is different.
