I have these funny little pregnancy moments--moments when I'm not sure if I'm thankful I'm alone or if I desperately want to share them with someone else so we can also share the laughter that would surely accompany them.
Moments like...
When I'm doing my 80s pregnancy workout video and laughing at the cheesiness of the whole affair.
When I'm reading in one of my childbirth books, and the author touts lotus birth, and I just can't believe what I'm reading.
When I lie in bed like a beached whale, contemplating whether or not to strip off another layer because it's just so hot (when it's not really that hot at all).
When I'm attempting to take my prenatal vitamins, even though the doctor keeps telling me to just take the Flinstone's variety, and then I throw them right up--a wasted effort.
When my belly is hanging out of the bottom of my tank top, and I look like a mess.
When I'm sitting at the bottom of the stairs looking up, thinking, "Why are there so many?"
In these "embarrassing,"everyday moments, I feel the most alone in this.

I had to google "lotus birth" to find out what it was. I think I would not be well if I was carrying around a placenta with me.
Agreed. I'm all for doing things unconventionally if they make sense, but that was WAY too much for me :)
