The joys of pregnancy

Small annoyances on the road to bringing home baby:

1.  No one wants to talk to me about anything except the pregnancy/baby (or worse, THEIR pregnancy/baby).
2.  Shaving has become difficult.
3.  Suddenly needing 12 pillows to get to sleep.
4.  Worrying that I am standing too much, or sitting too much, or sleeping too much.  Seriously can't win.
5.  Having my weight and wardrobe fit now considered appropriate topics of conversation for my co-workers.

Seriously, I do not care if you think my shirt is getting too short.  At least I can blame my chubbiness on a baby.

Which brings me to #6  - I find myself much less tolerant / quicker to flip out than usual.  Just as there are happy drunks and mean drunks, pregnancy affects moods I think.  Safe to assume I am not the happy whale, I might just use hormones as an excuse to punch the next person who tells me "how big" I am getting.
