Hot Mess

What do you do when there's a heat index of 110 degrees, neither of your cars have a/c and you're 6 months pregnant?...

1. You stay inside (of course) and have no choice but to come face to face with the guest bedroom you filled to the brim with all of the stuff you eradicated from your little girl's new room...

Baby girl's room...

Stuff you need to deal with that used to be in Baby Girl's room now transplanted to guest room...

2. Or you might step outside for a split second right after you get ready for the day because you realize week 26 is almost week 27, and thorough documentation of this pregnancy is worth the heat...

And yes, as a pregnant lady, this documentation must occur the split second after you're ready for the day because within minutes, it seems you're in shambles no matter how hard you try to hold it all together. If you wait too long you'll very likely have sweat, frizzy hair, some part of your clothes twisted or in the completely wrong place, and most definitely something spilled on your belly...ShAmBleS!

3. And if you really need to get out: grab as many ice packs as you possibly can, sit on them, shove them under your clothes, and be okay with the fact that your husband thinks you are insane...at least you're not burning up :)

4. Finally, thank God for ice cream, a house with a/c, and the fact that you're only 6 months pregnant instead of 8 or 9...

  1. LOL Katie, you are awesome! This is my first pregnancy during summer and two weeks ago was MISERABLE! But now the humidity seems to have broken and it is so gorgeous outside. I'd walk more, but the 8 month mark this fourth time around makes it difficult to go very far without waddling home. :) Have a glass of ice water for me and I'll do the same for you. Cheers!
