20 weeks

Courtesy of babycenter.com:

"This Week's Activity:
Treat yourself to something nice. You've made it to the halfway mark in your pregnancy, so celebrate with a little indulgence. Need some ideas?
• For your comfort, try scented soaps or candles, new pajamas, or a prenatal massage.
• For a keepsake, splurge on a piece of jewelry with your baby's birthstone, professional pictures of your pregnant self, or a frame for your ultrasound pictures.
• To share with your baby, consider a favorite book from your childhood, a calming CD that you can listen to together, or something special for the nursery.
• To feel like a hot momma, buy yourself a piece of clothing that makes you feel really sexy or get a free makeover at a department store."

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight. Mm, Chh, Hello? I would opt for a greasy pony tail and sweats any day over "a piece of clothing that makes you feel really sexy". I mean, that's what got me into this mess in the first place, right? No need to encourage anyone...

i noticed that it reads, "...makes you FEEL sexy" - even they're not deluded enough to try and sell "...LOOKs sexy" - i mean, i loved being pregnant, and steven loved my belly, but i'm sorry - sexy was on extended leave. come to think of it...i think it still is.

Ha ha! Maybe opt for the scented candles instead...sit back in your sweats and relax.

I'm laughing at loud. Just how I feel right now too. Love that we are only a few days apart. I really want that prenatal massage though...

SOOOO funny Sarah. And who's Sharry-- I like her comment. So sad but true-- it's kind of insulting isn't it? Put something on that "makes you FEEL sexy"... "you're fooling yourself, probably not your husband, but hey, you're twenty weeks so you deserve it!"

Having said all that- I saw your pregnant belly in Donna Smylie's photo book and THAT is what I call sexy. And sweats can't hide that so... good luck.
