I was REALLY pregnant when I couldn't sneeze without worrying that I might pee a little ; )

I know I am REALLY pregnant when I got for a snack at 11pm and the fridge door hits me in the stomach (A sign to stop snacking I'm sure!)

@Bookworm: omg. I totally tried trimming *there* the other day. HOLY LOLZ. DH laughed so hard at the mess I made.

haha I haven't even thought about those 2 things! I do the same! Dang, looks like more sitting in the shower to shave later on!

I can't think of any so far.. maybe when I need some sort of support pillow to sleep comfortably. I'm a side sleeper but I tend to roll onto my stomach part-way. So this will have to stop once I get my bump!

@.twist.: Hahah! Yep, I tried a couple weeks ago and DH told me to just let it go.... LOL!

@wahine08: I'm not into waxing either! I figure if I can't see it, and DH doesn't care, screw it!!

@sweetooth: haha...I still do both of those things (put one foot on the shower tiles to shave and use my foot to flush toilets) at 35 weeks. I'm getting I'll be able to do these until the end because they aren't super hard for me now. =)

I'm 33 and a half weeks pregnant and I still flush the toilet with my foot, if that helps! Luckily I have a full bath/shower with a ledge for my foot for shaving my legs-- I couldn't do it in your case any more. @Bookworm: Yeah, not seeing the lady parts is a little weird!

I remember when I realized that I couldn't see the underside of my belly, I thought that meant I was really pregnant. THEN I realized that I HAVE an underside of my belly!

I forget sometimes to lift my belly up and over something I'm leaning over, like the bathroom sink to look closely in the mirror, or the kitchen counter when I'm reaching for something. Belly bumps into edge, back up and lift the belly, then reach. Smooth.

@sweetooth: oh, but there are other things! I can't squeeze behind people anymore in the break room at work if they are sitting at a table...I have to walk around the entire room (around all the tables) to get to the fridge if people are sitting and eating because I just can't fit in the skinny aisleways anymore.

And the lady grooming issue for sure. I can do it with a hand mirror, but without the mirror, I literally can't see a thing down there. DH asked me the other day what that stain was on my underwear (I was just wearing a shirt and panties at home) and I couldn't even SEE my underwear. Dont worry--it wasn't fluids or anything...I'd sat in some food that had spilled on the couch.

@wahine08: Don't worry about rolling on your stomach-- there will come a time when you just can't, no matter what you want I was worried about that too but it would be like sleeping on top of a basketball!

For me, it was when my belly would be wet after washing the dishes. That always triggered the "Really!?!" moments for me.

Oh another one-- I knew I was really pregnant when I had to start blindly peeing in the cup in the doctor's office since I couldn't see where to hold it anymore.

I am really proud to say I still haven't peed on my hand.

@rahlyrah: ahhhhh totally noticed this yesterday! I was wondering why the toilet also groaned and squeaked when I sat on it. Oh boy.

I notice I groan a lot more too. I groan when I roll over, when I try to get out of bed, when I sit down on the couch, when I try to get off the couch, when I try to sweep something up....the list is endless. DH is constantly asking if I need a hand. This makes me feel very pregnant!

@sweetooth: ah, I'm 39 weeks and I still manage to fling my foot up to flush public toilets. But shaving my legs definitely got insanely difficult this week with my back pain.
