I'm in the home stretch, and I have to say, I'm feeling a bit like a circus freak. People are definitely looking at me. I just left Bread Co. (Panera for all you out of towners), and I feel like the stares or glances are less "Aw, cute pregnant lady!" and more "Whoa, she might have the baby here." I had to give a presentation for work to a small group of people at the local Health Department, and one guy told me pregnant woman make him nervous. He was being cute and concerned, because it was hot out and I was fanning myself, but I was still shocked to realize that I am, officially, huge and pregnant. And very much could blow at any point. And people are noticing.
And while friends tell me it's all baby, my ass, thighs and arms tell a different story.
Meanwhile, I'm waiting out my last few days here at work, trying to be patient and praying that my girl's foot doesn't stab through my skin. She's kicking the crap out of me. Whoever said they don't move as much at this stage because they've got such little room is a damn liar.

Do people at least let you cut in line at the supermarket? There's got to be an upside to feeling like you are a circus freak.
No! I get no free cuts! What is WRONG with people!
I'd totally let you cut in line...I *heart* you. I may beat up the people who make stupid comments and stare too....well, I'd at least give them a stern talking to and give them the stink-eye.
