If you had been in the exam room with me today, here are just a few things you might have heard:
"149? Seriously? 149?!" ~me, when I saw my little card that said how much I weighed. This indicated an eight-pound gain since last month.
"Yep, that's definitely her head down there." ~Dr. G.
"Pregnant women get all sorts of weird rashes." ~Dr. G, upon looking at my neck.
"Yes, you're gaining weight, but that's good. You're like a flower, just blossoming away. It's a good thing, because I needed you to blossom some for me. I'm not concerned at all." ~Dr. G, when I asked if he was concerned about how much weight I gained this month. (My books all tell me I should be gaining about a pound a week.....which is exactly half of what I did this month.)
"Oh, no.......he's going to see my nasty prickly legs." ~me, when Dr. G left the room so I could change.
And, my personal favorite:
"It's okay.....just tell him that you may have blossomed, but you've got thorns, too." ~Scott, in response to the above concern.

1 of your thoughts:
Oh! I thought I had already commented on this one--which was definitely one of my favorites! I just have to say, though, that if I ever weighed 149 I'd do the dance of joy because I haven't been that light since the eighth grade, and here you are that heavy when almost NINE MONTHS PREGNANT!!!
Your word verification is very fun to say:
"bawbowli" Sounds like a type of italian food. like, "Stromboli" or "That's a Boboli!" Or, maybe it's Mowgli's little sister?
