Beached whale

I have friends who laugh at me now because they've never seen me so huge. I feel like I need to wear a sign that says "wide load, passing through". It's changed my posture, it's changed how I do things, including flipping over in bed.



But I am happy to say that most of the wide load huge-ness comes from the fact that as of yesterday, I'm carrying about 3.4 kg of baby plus paraphenalia. It doesn't seem a lot for one baby as my mother would remind me, but I'm happy that they're growing and putting on weight. Now the trick is to keep them in for as long as possible so that they can be the parasites that they are and take whatever nutrition they need from me and grow even more.

And I will just have to struggle with a limited variety of clothes that I can wear now and plod about in slippers because nothing else fits.
